This looks moderately reasonable to me. However, with the process
title reporting I want to add, we're going to end up with a switch
that looks like
case T_IdentifySystemCmd:
+ set_ps_display("IDENTIFY_SYSTEM");
IdentifySystem();
+ EndReplicationCommand("IDENTIFY_SYSTEM");
break;
case T_BaseBackupCmd:
+ set_ps_display("BASE_BACKUP");
PreventInTransactionBlock(true, "BASE_BACKUP");
SendBaseBackup((BaseBackupCmd *) cmd_node);
+ EndReplicationCommand("BASE_BACKUP");
break;
which is starting to look a bit repetitive and copy-pasteo-prone.
I don't see an easy way to improve on it though. The only obvious
alternative would be to put another switch before the main one that
just fills a "const char *cmdtag" variable, but that seems ugly.
