In what version of PG is the 'my_type'::regtype::oid syntax available? I want to introduce this to the JDBC driver which currently does the most ridiculous query that totally ignores search path. JDBC driver does this currently: SELECT oid FROM pg_catalog.pg_type WHERE typname = ? So if you have more than one type of the same name (or perhaps a UDT and a table with the same name as in my case) it just grabs whichever one first appears in pg_type regardless of search path. So I intend to change that query to: SELECT ?::regtype::oid But I need to know if I should be checking the server version or not. What is the min version that that query will work on? -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/OID-of-type-by-name-tp3297240p5750103.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - general mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
