Hi I continue in review.
I found inconsistency in work with slicings (this is not directly related to this patch, but can be interesting, because with new functionality the array slicings can be edited more often). a = array[1,2,3,4,5]; a[1:5] = 10; -- correctly fails, although for some people can be more natural semantic setting a[1..5] to value 10 a[1:5] = NULL; does nothing - no fail, no value change ??? Is it correct a[1:5] = ARRAY[1]; -- correctly fails ERROR: source array too small but a[1:5] = ARRAY[1,2,3,4,5,6]; -- this statement works, but 6 is ignored. Is it correct? I expected "source array too big" More, this behave is not documented anything other looks well, all tests passed, and in my benchmarks I don't see any slowdowns , so I'll mark this patch as ready for committer Regards Pavel
