It's true for almost all cases, but we have "anyarray" columns in pg_statistic.stavaluesN. When we pass them to those array functions, element types of two anyarrays could be different. I guess they are protections only for them. =# SELECT A.stavalues1 SUBMULTISET OF B.stavalues1 FROM pg_statistic A, pg_statistic B WHERE A.stakind1 = 2 AND B.stakind1 = 2; ERROR: cannot compare incompatible arrays DETAIL: Arrays with element types name and oid[] are not compatible for comparison. -- 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
