Well, I was hoping that table_tuple_insert() would fill that info, but you did say upthread that table AMs are not exactly expected to do so, so maybe you have a point. By the way, what happens today if you do INSERT INTO a_zedstore_table ... RETURNING xmin? Do you get an error "xmin is unrecognized" or some such in slot_getsysattr() when trying to project the RETURNING list? -- Amit Langote EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
