I don't quite understand what you mean here?

That is that part of the code that I least understand, so I would
appreciate it if someone took 1 minute and told me how this _should_ be
written. Note that I used this code from the ADD FOREIGN KEY stuff.
/* Look at key[i] in the index and check that it is over the same column
as key[i] in the constraint. This is to differentiate between (a,b)
and (b,a) */
if (i < INDEX_MAX_KEYS && indexStruct->indkey[i] != 0)
{
int keyno = indexStruct->indkey[i];
if (keyno > 0)
{
char *name = NameStr(rel_attrs[keyno - 1]->attname);
if (strcmp(name, key->name) == 0) keys_matched++;
}
}
I admit I was confused as to why it's keyno - 1??

OK, gone.

I was going to do this, but then realised all I had access to in the
indexStruct was the oid of the index relation? What's the easiest way of
retrieving the name of an index given it's oid, or the oid of it's
relation?
Once I've figured these probs out, I'll fix the ADD UNIQUE code as well.
