pgsql: Add comments about the need to avoid uninitialized bits in datat
Started by Tom Laneabout 15 years ago1 messagescomitters
Add comments about the need to avoid uninitialized bits in datatype values.
There was already one recommendation in the documentation about writing
C functions to ensure padding bytes are zeroes, but make it stronger.
Also fix an example that was still using direct assignment to a varlena
length word, which no longer works since the varvarlena changes.
