X-Git-Tag: REL7_3~1002
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=dd6513a5b662e0a3e0de378f616741b7d77f3d32;p=postgresql

The attached patch disallows the use of coldeflists for functions that
don't return type RECORD. It also catches a core dump condition when a
function returning RECORD had an alias list instead of a coldeflist.

Now both conditions throw an ERROR.
