Why don't you just use SPI within your extension? No need to copy the logic for btree lookups this way. https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/static/spi.html > Suggesting a postgres extensions which does B-Tree lookup will also helps > me. contrib/amcheck looks at raw btree data, though I am not sure that you actually need to go down to that. But that's hard to reach a conclusion without more details. -- Michael -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
