There's basically no scenario where it's sensible for this to match dropped columns, so put a test for dropped-ness into SPI_fnumber() itself, and excise the test from the small number of callers that were paying attention to the case. (Most weren't :-(.) In passing, normalize tests at call sites: always reject attnum <= 0 if we're disallowing system columns. Previously there was a mixture of "< 0" and "<= 0" tests. This makes no practical difference since SPI_fnumber() never returns 0, but I'm feeling pedantic today. Also, in the places that are actually live user-facing code and not legacy cruft, distinguish "column not found" from "can't handle system column". Per discussion with Jim Nasby; thi supersedes his original patch that just changed the behavior at one call site. Discussion: <b2de8258-c4c0-1cb8-7b97-e8538e5c975c@BlueTreble.com>
The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
