Hi all, someone of you sent me an example of a new data type called tinyint.
Hi.
I seen that is using a well directory structure just for compile a tinyint.c.
Yes. The idea was to have it do more than just this one type. Maybe a bad idea, on retrospect.
Is there any "empty" structure that I have to use in order to delivery compile my email.c or I can just use a single line command:
gcc email.c -I. -I /usr/include/pgsql/server ....
Yes.
I seen also that a library called libpgext.so is created.
You need to create SOME library, and you need it to be of a unique name. Did I mention that the tinyint type was suboptimal in that respect?
Shall I do the same ? Are guide line to use out there?
There are in the docs. Start reading from http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/static/extend.html

I sent you these sources as a base to build from. You are most welcome to start anew if you don't like the structure.
