Do you mean in general, or for the postgres_fdw specifically ? In general, only valid column types should be accepted in the CreateForeignTableStmt. The CreateForeignTableStmt is passed through DefineRelation, which takes care of looking up the actual data types. For the postgres_fdw POC implementation, this is done by parsing the attributes type from the query result with the regtype input functions. The attribute typmod is injected too. > > Regards, > > Atri -- Ronan Dunklau http://dalibo.com - http://dalibo.org
