I thought the point here was to change the basic interface to an SQL function which PL/perl or any other language could access in the usual way. All this does is keep the strange, magical interface but then use PL/perl to put a more normal looking wrapper around it. ...Robert -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
