Thread: how to add a new column in pg_proc table

Hello Every one,

I am a student and working on my final year project,
I chose postgres as my development database,because of
its flexable architecture and extensibility.

I need to add a column of text type in pg_proc table
which is the part of the system catalog.I need to have
it so that I can proceed with my project.

I already know about the pg_proc.c and the structure
which contains all the relevent table columns in this
file.I also know about the script that generates the
.bki file with the file format as well.But ....

I keep on getting errors.It be very helpful if some
one can guide me regarding the basic steps for adding
a column in the pg_proc table......it would be indeed
of a great a help.

Regards,
Nauman

Hi Nauman,

No worries, glad you've chosen PostgreSQL.  :)

Probably your best bet is to introduce yourself and ask on the
PostgreSQL "general" mailing list, because it's purpose is just for
things like what you're asking.

This mailing list, the one you've just emailed, is for people involved
with running the PostgreSQL web site.  Most of us are too busy to answer
questions, and not everyone has a lot of deep knowledge about the
PostgreSQL system catalogs.

Hope that helps!

Regards and best wishes,

Justin Clift
