Hi, In the PG source code function "write_relcache_init_file()", I found that the whole 'Relation' structs were directly written into the file 'pg_internal.init'. This brings some binary differences of that file, if we run pg_initdb multiple times, because the struct 'Relation' contains some pointer fields.
And my question is : Could we clear the pointer values in 'Relation' before calling write_item(...)? No benefit regarding function or performance, just for binary compatibility... Thanks for reading. -- Sent from: http://www.postgresql-archive.org/PostgreSQL-hackers-f1928748.html
