I'm looking at this patch and I'm confused. Why do we need this at all? pg_read_binary_file() seems like it might be useful to somebody, but I don't see what it has to do with extensions. And the rest of this doesn't appear to provide any new functionality. The extension mechanism hardly needs SQL-callable functions. As a side note, this comment almost makes sense, but not quite: + /* Abuse knowledge that we're bytea and text are both varlena */ ...but my real question is why any of this is necessary at all and what it has to do with extensions. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
