pg_get_object_address and pg_identify_object_as_address are supposed to be inverses, but they disagreed as to the names of the arguments representing the textual form of an object address. Moreover, the documented argument names didn't agree with reality at all, either for these functions or pg_identify_object. In HEAD and v11, I think we can get away with renaming the input arguments of pg_get_object_address to match the outputs of pg_identify_object_as_address. In theory that might break queries using named-argument notation to call pg_get_object_address, but it seems really unlikely that anybody is doing that, or that they'd have much trouble adjusting if they were. In older branches, we'll just live with the lack of consistency. Aside from fixing the documentation of these functions to match reality, I couldn't resist the temptation to do some copy-editing. Per complaint from Jean-Pierre Pelletier. Back-patch to 9.5 where these functions were introduced. (Before v11, this is a documentation change only.)

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
