This is a simple change, and should work correctly. However, I think I would do more, as this part of the code is just confusing. * AllocateRelationDesc only has one caller * Its description comment only mentions some things it does, not all of them. The call site explains it differently, but also not completely. I would at least also modify the comments so that they are only at one place and explain the function correctly. But maybe it would be even better to remove this function completely or to modify it so it's usable at multiple places? ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 89+ messages in thread
