Robert,
I'm currently trying to revise my patches according to your suggestions,
but I'm facing a trouble about error messages when user tries to drop
a non-exists object.
Because the ObjectProperty array has an entry for each catalogs, it is
unavailable to hold the name of object type (such as "table" or "index")
when multiple object types are associated with a particular system
catalog, such as pg_class, pg_type or pg_proc.
How should I implement the following block?
if (!OidIsValid(address.objectId))
{
ereport(NOTICE,
(errmsg("%s \"%s\" does not exist, skipping",
get_object_property_typetext(stmt->removeType),
NameListToString(objname))));
continue;
}
One idea is to add a separated array to translate from OBJECT_* to
its text representation. (Maybe, it can be used to translattions with
opposite direction.)
Thanks,
