I like the idea of reducing duplication. I don't like the "prefix" as proposed though, because it's not going to work well for translation (string building) -- I'd rather pass the entire phrase from caller, so that the translator has one piece to translate which lives in the module that emits it. I think I'd do something like ereport(LOG, errmsg_internal("%s: %.*s", _(prefix), len, message)); and see to it that each caller uses gettext_noop() around the string they pass as "arg", for gettext to collect. -- Álvaro Herrera Breisgau, Deutschland — https://www.EnterpriseDB.com/
