Thread: Palloc library

Palloc library

Hi,
I wrote a user-defined function and inside the source make use of palloc.
Somebody from the novice mailing list told me that the "palloc" source is
included in libpq and therefore I have included "libpq-fe.h" as the
documentation says. The program compiled fine.
However, today I read in the FAQ Section 4.2 :
 When writing user-defined functions, do not include the file
"libpq-fe.h". Doing so will cause your palloc to be a malloc instead of a
free.
Which one is right?
