This is simply not true. There's no way a Java developer can access
random memory through PL/Java.
No, the point is that the Java developer can provide some data which can
convince postgresql to fetch random data for the user.
Consider the attached type which is simply an int4 equivalent.
Depending on how you define it as passed by value or passed by reference
it will or will not work (attached).
This looks like it works:
jurka=# select '1'::intbyref, '2'::intbyval;
intbyref | intbyval
----------+----------
1 | 2
(1 row)
But it doesn't really:
jurka=# create table inttest (a intbyref, b intbyval);
CREATE TABLE
jurka=# insert into inttest values ('1', '2');
INSERT 0 1
jurka=# select * from inttest;
a | b
---+------------
1 | 2139062143
(1 row)
You can also get:
jurka=# select * from inttest;
server closed the connection unexpectedly
This probably means the server terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
