doesn't list which types can be indexed and which can't?

Postgres can handle a variety of indexes including indexing on
expressions, which is why I pointed you to that link.

To cut to the chase, in the above link at:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.2/interactive/indexes-opclass.html

there is this:

SELECT am.amname AS index_method,
opf.opfname AS opfamily_name,
amop.amopopr::regoperator AS opfamily_operator
FROM pg_am am, pg_opfamily opf, pg_amop amop
WHERE opf.opfmethod = am.oid AND
amop.amopfamily = opf.oid
ORDER BY index_method, opfamily_name, opfamily_operator;



Thanks Adrian, but question was how to decide which types are indexable - query which you sent returns list of operators defined for some types - for example it returns operators for bytea too, and you can't index by bytea, so I don't see how you could decide if type can be indexed based on this?
