I assume a patch like this doesn't need documentation. Does it need a test?
Anything else?
I think you forgot to attach the patch. Or is it just a proposal?
Sorry, patch attached here.
I don't think it's safe to call output functions at arbitrary points from a debugger. But if you're
okay with that during development, say, then I think you could just call
OidOutputFunctionCall(F_RANGE_OUT, $1)?
I assumed it wasn't safe everywhere (e.g. there is potentially a TOAST lookup), but for debugging a
patch that's okay with me.
Are you doing something to get macro expansion? I've never gotten my gdb to see #defines, although
in theory this configure line should do it, right?:
./configure 'CFLAGS=-ggdb -Og -g3 -fno-omit-frame-pointer' --enable-tap-tests --enable-cassert
--enable-debug --prefix=${HOME}/local
I also tried -gdwarf and -gdwarf-4 and -gdwarf-5 (all still with -Og -g3).
If it makes a difference, I'm attaching to a process:

If I know the oid, then this works:

$2 = 0x5f9be16ca4d8 "[3,5)"
That is a big improvement, but still a little annoying.
