+1 to split the custom_variable_classes issue. It's a longstanding TODO item, but EXTENSION is still very useful without the fix. It's my guess that ExtensionSetCVC() can initialize modules one-by-one and be called on demand, for example, at SHOW, searching pg_settings, or assignment to variables with unknown classes. -- Itagaki Takahiro -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
