Hi!
I'm new to PostgreSQL (and C) and what I'm trying to do is to store a
query plan on disc (in a binary file).
My approach is to use SPI functions to get the query plan and then
transform it into a 'storable' format (Replacing the pointers with
actual values).
Is there any other way to do this? Is my approach OK?
The sure thing is that it is a messy task!
I posted this message to the 'general' and 'novice' lists but the only
answer I got was from the latter:
" I'd look at extending the outfuncs/readfuncs code to deal with all the node types used in plan trees,
andthen store text strings instead of binary. regards, tom lane",
which seems a little confusing to me since as I said I'm a newbie.
Thanks in advance,
