Subject: intarray:  return empty zero-dimensional array for an empty array
X-Git-Url: http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c155f654b4f755b4111bd9adb60559fe22526a10;p=users%2Fbernd%2Fpostgres.git

intarray:  return empty zero-dimensional array for an empty array

Previously a one-dimensional empty array was returned, but its text
representation matched a zero-dimensional array, and there is no way to
dump/reload a one-dimensional empty array.

BACKWARD INCOMPATIBILITY
