I don't understand why don't you just do something like #define get_object_property_attnum_name(objtype, attnum_name_value) \ (get_object_property((objtype), NULL, NULL, (attnum_name_value), NULL, NULL))) and the caller does AttrNumber attnum_name; get_object_property_attnum_name(OBJTYPE_TABLE, &attnum_name); i.e. the caller must still pass pointers, instead of expecting the values to be returned. -- Álvaro Herrera <alvhe...@commandprompt.com> The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc.
