Ah yeah, I thought of this too at first, but didn't actually code it because I thought it'd be messier. Trying to do it naively doesn't work, because it's not enough to test whether each bit is true or false -- what you need to know is whether an option was specified for each bit, in either direction. So we'd need a separate bitmask, we can't pass the existing 'bits' mask. And at that point, it's not any better to have a bitmask, and a stack-allocated struct of booleans is just easier to write. -- Álvaro Herrera PostgreSQL Developer — https://www.EnterpriseDB.com/ "Los dioses no protegen a los insensatos.
