Hi All,

Sorry if this was answered before, I was unable to find anything in archives.

Here's a problem I'm facing:

I have a "mimetype" table with all mimetypes my app has to deal with. I'm in a 
process of adding a fulltext indexing (tsearch2) into my DB and I want to 
specify a per-mimetype conversion function which would convert corresponding 
data into a text suitable for indexing. PostgreSQL has a "regprocedure" 
datatype (an alias to OID?) which can be added as a column to my "mimetype" 
table but I can't find a way to execute a function by regprocedure from 
pl/pgsql. Is there any way to do it except writing my own "C" function ? Or 
maybe I'd better off adding a "text" field for function name and calling it 
from pl/pgsql with EXECUTE "string" ?

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
       choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
       match
