TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
Nithin,
You can find the code in src/backend/storage.
There you will find a couple of directories containing code of various
parts of the storage system.
I guess you will be most interested in page/bufpage.c. There you can see
how a page works. I highly suggest to read the corresponding header file
[EMAIL PROTECTED] storage]$ pwd
/usr/src/pg/postgresql-8.0.2/src/include/storage
[EMAIL PROTECTED] storage]$ ls -l bufpage.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 hs hs 10255 Dec 31 23:03 bufpage.h
There you can find information about the layout of pages.
best regards,
hans
