It seems moderately okay, but not terribly generic; maybe we should get rid of all that stuff and make ilist.c available to frontend. Not sure how easy is that, given that AFAIR ilist uses elog. Anyway maybe we can discuss that in the future, to avoid blocking your patch. -- Álvaro Herrera http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
