I'd imagine that we simply set the context to "$language function $name", probably in fmgr_info_other_lang(). If a language wants more than that, it can set another level of context. Of course this way we would not save much code in, say, PL/Perl, but all the other PLs that are currently not using this stuff at all would get it for free. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
