Domains and Indexes

Appears there is a problem finding the opclass when indexing a domain.

CREATE DOMAIN newint as int4;
CREATE TABLE tab (col newint unique);
ERROR:  data type newint has no default operator class for access method
"btree"
    You must specify an operator class for the index or define a
    default operator class for the data type


Specifically, GetDefaultOpClass() finds 0 exact matches and 3 binary
compatible matches.  Fetching getBaseType() of the attribute fixes the
problem for domains (see attachment).

However, I have to wonder why GetDefaultOpClass doesn't simply use the
first Binary Compatible opclass.  When there is more than one usable it
doesn't do anything useful.

Because that would completely destroy the point of having multiple
opclasses for a datatype: you'd only do so if they *act different*.
Therefore, having the system choose one at random is a Bad Idea(tm).

Sorry Bruce, this was included as a part of the patch of the below
subject:

Re: [PATCHES] Dump serials as serial -- not a sequence


Patch may be smart enough to say 'already applied'.
