Hey,
PostgreSQL 7.3 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC 2.96
But, I am getting error when I am using the alias key word.
And also when I try to create a C function for the same and excute I am getting the following error
ERROR: Memory exhausted in AllocSetAlloc(677865842)
And, I am allocating memory using the "palloc"
