* POSTGRES Datum (abstract data type) manipulation routines.
|
|
*
|
|
* These routines are driven by the 'typbyval' and 'typlen' information,
|
|
* which must previously have been obtained by the caller for the datatype
|
|
* of the Datum. (We do it this way because in most situations the caller
|
|
* can look up the info just once and use it for many per-datum operations.)
