Dave, I lean with you and Tom. While running it over the same libpq protocol would be helpful in some ways, it would have a lot of drawbacks and would really change the function of libpq. I think a separate debugging protocol is in order. Also, as far as bytecode comments go, let's separate them from this thread. I have a pretty sweet hand-written stack-based VM that understands PL/SQL, but it's kinda old and written using PCCTS 1.33 (a recursive descent parser). It has compilation, decompilation, and full debugging capabilities. Unfortunately, PCCTS is no longer maintained as Terrence Parr (the originator) has since moved to ANTLR. ANTLR currently does not generate C code although I have done some starting work on it (ANTLR currently generates Python, Java, or C++). I don't suggest we really reuse one of the current VMs as it would require a lot more support and coordination. Let's take the bytecode discussion off this thread and move it to another. There is certainly a good and bad side to using bytecode and I would be glad to discuss it in another thread.
