Well the situation in C is substantially more complicated than you make out. I think the analogous situation in C is actually having an array of integer* pointing to separately allocated arrays. There are a number of places where Postgres has to special-case arrays and array references (think of "update foo set bar[n] = baz" for example) so I don't think it would work to just create the array type for integer[] either. -- greg -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
