Hm, it was me that led him in that direction. The original patch was just copying a bunch of code from postgres.c into genfile.c, which struck me as a worse proposition. The intent here is to execute some code from the file directly inside the server. Eh, I realize now that the right way to go about this is to use SPI. -- Álvaro Herrera <alvhe...@commandprompt.com> The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc.
