Loads a shared library file into the PostgreSQL backend's address
|
|
space. If the file had been loaded previously, it is first
|
|
unloaded. This command is primarily useful to unload and reload a
|
|
shared library file that has been changed since the backend first
|
|
loaded it. To make use of the
|
|
shared library, function(s) in it need to be declared using the <xref
|
|
linkend="sql-createfunction" endterm="sql-createfunction-title"> command.
|
|
</para>

<para>
|

The file name is specified in the same way as for shared library
|
|
names in <xref linkend="sql-createfunction" endterm="sql-createfunction-title">; in particular, one
|
|
may rely on a search path and automatic addition of the system's standard
|
|
shared library file name extension. See the
|
|
<citetitle>Programmer's Guide</citetitle> for more detail.
