What do you mean by "begin a new SPI session" --- do you SPI_finish() and SPI_connect()? (If so, why bother?) I think that SPI_finish() would release the memory in which the previous plan existed. If you're not copying the entire parse tree this would lead to trouble. You'd be well advised to be doing this sort of hackery in a build with --enable-cassert. That turns on CLOBBER_FREED_MEMORY which makes misuse of freed memory a whole lot more obvious. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs/FAQ.html
