If we remove them, we'd better get this pair right. One thing that bothers me a bit is that if we just move the call to the bottom, then freePGconn won't do it at all if passed a NULL pointer. Now (assuming a non-broken app) the only way that can happen is if makeEmptyPGconn runs out of memory. If the client gets back a null pointer from a connection attempt, it's probably a 50-50 proposition whether it will think it ought to do PQfinish with it. So it'd be good if we could keep the usage count straight either way. I propose the invariant "a WSA usage count is associated with a non-null PGconn structure". That would mean that doing WSACleanup only at the bottom of freePGconn is correct, but also that makeEmptyPGconn needs to do WSACleanup in its (two) failure paths. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
