I think there are two somewhat defensible theories: (1) punt, and return NULL overall. So in this case the variadic function would act as if it were STRICT. That seems a bit weird though if the function is not strict otherwise. (2) Treat the NULL as if it were a zero-length array, giving rise to zero ordinary parameters. This could be problematic if the function can't cope very well with zero parameters ... but on the other hand, if it can't do so, then what will it do with VARIADIC '{}'::int[] ? I lean a little bit towards (2) but it's definitely a judgment call. Anybody have any other arguments one way or the other? regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
