Hi Nisha,
Some review comments for the patch v1-0002.
======
src/backend/replication/slot.c
1.

+/*
+ * Raise an error based on the slot's invalidation cause.
+ */
+static void
+RaiseSlotInvalidationError(ReplicationSlot *slot)
+{
+ StringInfo err_detail = makeStringInfo();
+
+ Assert(slot->data.invalidated != RS_INVAL_NONE);
+
+ switch (slot->data.invalidated)
+ {
+ case RS_INVAL_WAL_REMOVED:
+ appendStringInfoString(err_detail, _("This slot has been invalidated
because the required WAL has been removed."));
+ break;
+
+ case RS_INVAL_HORIZON:
+ appendStringInfoString(err_detail, _("This slot has been invalidated
because the required rows have been removed."));
+ break;
+
+ case RS_INVAL_WAL_LEVEL:
+ /* translator: %s is a GUC variable name */
+ appendStringInfo(err_detail, _("This slot has been invalidated
because \"%s\" is insufficient for slot."),
+ "wal_level");
+ break;
+
+ case RS_INVAL_NONE:
+ pg_unreachable();
+ }
+
+ ereport(ERROR,
+ errcode(ERRCODE_OBJECT_NOT_IN_PREREQUISITE_STATE),
+ errmsg("can no longer get changes from replication slot \"%s\"",
+ NameStr(slot->data.name)),
+ errdetail_internal("%s", err_detail->data));
+}
AFAIK the _() is a macro for gettext(). So those strings are intended
for translation, right? There's also a "/* translator: ..." comment
implying the same.
OTOH, those strings are only being used by errdetail_internal, whose
function comment says "This is exactly like errdetail() except that
strings passed to errdetail_internal are not translated...".
Isn't there some contradiction here?
Perhaps the _() macro is not needed, or perhaps the
errdetail_internal() should be errdetail().
