    Another important point is that when a server process is asked to display
-   any of these statistics, it first fetches the most recent report emitted by
-   the collector process and then continues to use this snapshot for all
-   statistical views and functions until the end of its current transaction.
-   So the statistics will show static information as long as you continue the
-   current transaction.  Similarly, information about the current queries of
-   all sessions is collected when any such information is first requested
-   within a transaction, and the same information will be displayed throughout
-   the transaction.
-   This is a feature, not a bug, because it allows you to perform several
-   queries on the statistics and correlate the results without worrying that
-   the numbers are changing underneath you.  But if you want to see new
-   results with each query, be sure to do the queries outside any transaction

Hi hackers,

While working on [1], I noticed that we missed using deconstruct_array_builtin()
in 062a8444242.

Indeed, d746021de1 added construct_array_builtin and deconstruct_array_builtin
but , later on, 062a8444242 made use of deconstruct_array for TEXTOID.

Please find attached a tiny patch to add the $SUBJECT.

That does not fix any issues, it just removes this unnecessary hardcoded
parameters related to TEXTOID passed to deconstruct_array.

A quick check:

$ git grep construct_array | grep OID | grep -v builtin
src/backend/catalog/pg_publication.c:           deconstruct_array(arr, TEXTOID, -1, false, TYPALIGN_INT,
src/backend/utils/fmgr/funcapi.c:        * For the OID and char arrays, we don't need to use deconstruct_array()

shows that this is the "only" miss since d746021de1, so I still don't think it
has to be more "complicated" than it is currently (as already mentioned by Peter
in [2]).

Subject: [PATCH v1] Missing deconstruct_array_builtin usage

d746021de1 added construct_array_builtin and deconstruct_array_builtin but
, later on, 062a8444242 made use of deconstruct_array for TEXTOID. Making use of
deconstruct_array_builtin instead. That does not fix any issues, it just removes
this unnecessary hardcoded parameters related to TEXTOID passed to
deconstruct_array.

+1 for better consistency and simplicity.

It seems that src/backend/utils/adt/float.c file still has functions
that can use [de]construct_array_builtin(), for example
float8_combine(). I think it's an oversight of d746021de1.

Thanks for looking at it.

Good catch, please find attached v2 taking care of those. I looked at the
remaining [de]construct_array() usages and that looks ok to me.

Please note that v1 has been committed (099c572d33).

Subject: [PATCH v2] construct_array_builtin usage for FLOAT8OID

Commit d746021de1 introduced use of construct_array_builtin for built-in types
instead of construct_array but forgot some replacements linked to FLOAT8OID.

This looks good to me.  I can't think of a reason why it was not 
included in the original patch.
