problem when optimizing the window aggregation

Hi,

I’m trying to reduce the re-computing of window aggregation. Here the AVG function for example.

The original window aggregation’s transition value(transValue) of AVG is an ArrayType, that contains two main values(sum, count).

Now, I’m using a temporary transition value (tempTransValue), and I need to copy tempTransValue to transValue.

I used the function datumCopy as following:

peraggstate->transValue = datumCopy(peraggstate->tempTransValue, peraggstate->transtypeByVal, peraggstate->transtypeLen);

But when the copied transValue is passed to the invoke function, here is int4_avg_accum, the ArrayType returned from PG_GETARG_ARRAYTYPE_P(0) is null.

Which means the copy action is failed.

Anybody know why? Or give me some suggestions? Thanks very much.

Best Regards
