Tipo y columna

Descripción

oid oid

Identificador de fila

lanname name

Name of the language

lanowner oid (hace referencia a pg_authid.oid)

Owner of the language

lanispl bool

This is false for internal languages (such as SQL) and true for user-defined languages. Currently, pg_dump still uses this to determine which languages need to be dumped, but this might be replaced by a different mechanism in the future.

lanpltrusted bool

True if this is a trusted language, which means that it is believed not to grant access to anything outside the normal SQL execution environment. Only superusers can create functions in untrusted languages.

lanplcallfoid oid (hace referencia a pg_proc.oid)

For noninternal languages this references the language handler, which is a special function that is responsible for executing all functions that are written in the particular language. Zero for internal languages.

laninline oid (hace referencia a pg_proc.oid)

This references a function that is responsible for executing inline anonymous code blocks (DO blocks). Zero if inline blocks are not supported.

lanvalidator oid (hace referencia a pg_proc.oid)

This references a language validator function that is responsible for checking the syntax and validity of new functions when they are created. Zero if no validator is provided.
