So there is a whole lot of other stuff you probably need to write: object insertion code, object deletion code, lookup code (maybe a new syscache or two). Traditionally the lowest-level insertion/deletion code goes into catalog/pg_yourcatalog.c, while slightly higher-level code such as the implementation of new utility commands to manage this new kind of object will go elsewhere. That's before you get to any actual new functionality... regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
