Hi there , i have this scenario :
- postgresql 7.5 ( with modified heap_* functions to retrieve data
from another dbms)
- the tuple's data is allocated in memory via palloc (the tuple table slot and the heap tuple hold a pointer to the
data and not to the buffer pages nor hard disk data pointers)
- the changes (by now) gonna be implemented in sequential scans.
Having these , I need to modify the tuple after the ExecQual , and
after the projection so i can save memory , just changing the tuple to
hold a "hash" or compressed data , and decompress / or restore the
tuple data in the ExecSelect phase.
I tried to do this using the heap_modifytuple function , and
returning a "newSlot with a newTuple" instead the "resultSlot" but as
i suppose im missing something , can anyone help me ? or give me a
clue....
Thanks in advance..
Weimi..
