If and only if so, this sounds better.
Yeah, that's a problem. New thought: how about we go back more or less to the original coding, except replacing the second argument (only) with a Relation? In other words, callers will pass either a Relation (which might be a table or foreign table) or a type name. Not particularly elegant, but no worse than what we had before. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
