I'm having some problems when using "pfree()" on functions in C.<br />Calling it on "psql" gives the exception below on
bothversions of function "insert()" [1,2] if "pfree()" is enabled: <br /><br />server closed the connection
unexpectedly<br/> This probably means the server terminated abnormally<br /> before or while processing
therequest.<br />conexão com servidor foi perdida<br />(connection to the server was lost) <br /><br />The strange is
thatit doesn't happen with the function "delstr()" [3], which has "pfree()".<br />What could am I doing wrong?<br /><br

/> int lnew = lstr + strlen(piece) + 1;<br /> char* temp = palloc(lnew);<br /> memset((void*) temp, 0, lnew);<br
/><br/> /*<br /> FILE *debug;<br /> debug = fopen("/dev/xconsole", "w"); <br /> fprintf(debug, "insert('%s',
