Well, then I think we're converging on agreement that array comparison should always take into account the number of dimensions and the axis lengths. What seems still in question is whether to compare or ignore the axis lower bounds. I'd argue that ordinary equality should include the lower bounds, but I'm willing to provide a separate operator (or whole btree opclass if people want it) that ignores the lower bounds. We just need a name. Maybe ~=, ~<, etc? regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
