Looks much better to me, but the use of strcmp() doesn't look good. ISTM that stmtType is mostly used for error messages. I think you should add some kind of identifier (such as the original parser Node) into the CreateStmtContext so that you can do a IsA() test instead -- a bit more invasive as a patch, but much cleaner. Also the error messages need more work. -- Álvaro Herrera <alvhe...@commandprompt.com> The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc.
