Dear readers,
Now, pg_typeof is an alternative but that only goes so far:
it requires laboriously constructing an array on the right
hand side for the above use case, along the lines of:
select pg_typeof('a'::text) = any(ARRAY[pg_typeof(''::text), pg_typeof(''::name)]);
Is there anything obvious I am missing for easily
resurrecting the above "is of" use ?
Actually it can be done as:
select pg_typeof('test'::text) in ('text'::regtype, 'varchar'::regtype);
?column?

t
select pg_typeof(1::int) in ('text'::regtype, 'varchar'::regtype);
?column?
----------
f
Thanks,
Karsten
