Thanks for the tips of using gdb.
I've found that dblink works without the oid map, ie: dblink(... , ... ,
false)
but returns the error when enabled, ie: dblink(... , ... , true)
The only part of dblink affected by this flag (use_oid_map) is within
'pgresultGetTupleDesc'
and the only variable affected is 'atttypid'
- which is left alone if use_oid_map is false.
When use_oid_map is true, SPI is used to prepare a query,
and execute it for each attribute - atttypid is then assigned the
value retreived from the query.
So when no custom types are used, the same values are passed to
'TupleDescInitEntry' whether use_oid_map is true or false.
I just can't work it out!
