System catalog accesses are generally done with SnapshotNow semantics --- in particular, lookups for function definitions will be done that way. Although the PL languages all cache function definitions, they go out of their way to verify that the cache is still up-to-date each time it is used. I don't recall the exact example that made us conclude we had to act that way, but it's unlikely to be changed. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
