History

Tom Lane fa5c8a055a Cross-data-type comparisons are now indexable by btrees, pursuant to my pghackers proposal of 8-Nov. All the existing cross-type comparison operators (int2/int4/int8 and float4/float8) have appropriate support. The original proposal of storing the right-hand-side datatype as part of the primary key for pg_amop and pg_amproc got modified a bit in the event; it is easier to store zero as the 'default' case and only store a nonzero when the operator is actually cross-type. Along the way, remove the long-since-defunct bigbox_ops operator class.		22 years ago

backend_pid()

	return the pid of our corresponding backend.

unlisten(relname)

	unlisten from a relation or from all relations if the argument
	is null, empty or '*'.
	It is now obsoleted by the new unlisten command but still useful
	if you want unlisten a name computed by the query.
	Note that a listen/notify relname can be any ascii string, not
	just valid relation names.

min(x,y)
max(x,y)

	return the min or max of two integers.
