Hello,
I've read the docs at [1] and also this interesting recent post about
adding binary I/O to the hashtypes extension. I wrote send & recv
functions for my new multirange types, but I'm not sure how to test
them. After running installcheck or installcheck-world, the code
coverage report says they aren't tested, nor are the send/recv
functions for ranges or arrays. When does Postgres actually use these
functions? Is there a good way to test them?
Thanks,
Paul
