I'm not really thrilled with switching the default assumption to be V1, especially not if we implement that by telling authors they can stop bothering with the macros. The pain will just come back sometime in the future when we decide we need a function API V2. (I'm actually a bit surprised V1 has lived this long without changes.) Here's a different straw-man proposal: let's start requiring *all* external C functions to have an API-version block. We can add a PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V0(myfunc) macro for those people who are still using V0 and don't feel like changing their code (and you know they're out there). For the rest of us, this would allow emitting an appropriate error when we forget the macro.
Sounds like a good plan. cheers andrew -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
