I've read the standard about "minvalue", "maxvalue" and "start". OK, I was wrong. Since "start" should be equal to "minvalue" unless defined explicitly, the only bug left from my first email here is resetting "minvalue" back to 1 when data type changes and if the value matches the bound of the old type (the last case there). P.S.: the same thing with "maxvalue" when "increment" is negative. -- Best regards, Vitaly Burovoy -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
