Hello, just a question regarding multidimensional arrays. When i create an array, its number of dimensions is recorded in pg_catalog.pg_attribute (attndims), but they are not enforced upon insertion, nor is this presented by \d command. (i didn't see any attndims column showing up in the logs)
Any reasons why this is so?
According to the documentation "The current implementation does not enforce the declared number of dimensions either. Arrays of a particular element type are all considered to be of the same type, regardless of size or number of dimensions. So, declaring the array size or number of dimensions in CREATE TABLE is simply documentation; it does not affect run-time behavior." See http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/arrays.html#ARRAYS-DECLARATION
