We don't have anything that currently tests the Custom Scan interface in the tree. The question is how important that is, and whether it's worth having what's basically a toy implementation just to demonstrate that the feature can work. If so, I think ctidscan is as good a toy example as any; in the interest of full disclosure, I was the one who suggested it in the first place. But I am not entirely sure it's a good idea to saddle ourselves with that maintenance effort. It would be a lot more interesting if we had an example that figured to be generally useful. -- 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
