The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 2292 Logged by: Adriaan van Os Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.1 Operating system: Mac OS X Description: Calling conventions in docs Details:
Section 32.9.5. Writing Code of the 8.1 docs says: >>While it may be possible to load functions written in languages other than C into PostgreSQL, this is usually difficult (when it is possible at all) because other languages, such as C++, FORTRAN, or Pascal often do not follow the same calling convention as C. That is, other languages do not pass argument and return values between functions in the same way<< This is nonsense. GNU Pascal and GNU C use the same calling conventions. In fact, they share the same compiler-backend.
