Hardcoding -1 for typlen of varlenas is one of the few (the only?) magic constants used throughout the source code. I'm surprised there isn't a macro for it though. Do you need the alignment? If so I want to check the code against the packed varlena patch. Just in case. -- Gregory Stark EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: You can help support the PostgreSQL project by donating at http://www.postgresql.org/about/donate
