Thanks Alvaro for taking your time and pointing me to "Developer_FAQ". I knew this web page and there is good stuff int it. The most important about "Developer_FAQ" which I believe is that it lists vital books for PG developers.
Comparing the real challenge I am facing in finding my way in the rabbit role(the PG source code), "Developer_FAQ" is indeed less useful. Of course, I am a beginner and I am just beginning and one day I hope with your support I will figure out to find my space in PG development. My question is why is that there is a lot of hands-on about PG application development(eg. connecting to PG using JAVA/JDBC) but almost nothing about PG hacking hands-on lessons. For example, I wanna add the keyword "Encrypted" in CREATE TABLE t1(a int, b int encrypted) or CREATE TABLE t1(a int, b int) encrypted. Alas, its not easy task.
