maybe macro is better - it is too short and without any semantic for
function, but maybe not. The length of source code is not problem -
the short function will be inlined, so total length will be same. What
should be name for this function or for this macro? It hasn't any
semantic. There should be readable macro only for ereport function -
some
#define RAISE_EEEE_FORMAT_ERROR ereport(ERROR,
(errcode(ERRCODE_SYNTAX_ERROR), errmsg("invalid using of format
EEEE")));
