Hi,
Presently, replication slot invalidation causes and their text are
scattered into ReplicationSlotInvalidationCause enum and a bunch of
macros. This is making the code to get invalidation cause text given
the cause as enum and vice-versa unreadable, longer and inextensible.
The attached patch adds a lookup table for all invalidation causes for
better readability and extensibility. FWIW, another patch in
discussion https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/CALj2ACWgACB4opnbqi=x7Hc4aqcgkXoLsh1VB+gfidXaDQNu_Q@mail.gmail.com
adds a couple of other invalidation reasons, this lookup table makes
the life easier and code shorter.
Thoughts?
