*
* pg_description.h
* definition of the system "description" relation (pg_description)
*
* NOTE: an object is identified by the OID of the row that primarily
* defines the object, plus the OID of the table that that row appears in.
* For example, a function is identified by the OID of its pg_proc row
* plus the pg_class OID of table pg_proc. This allows unique identification
* of objects without assuming that OIDs are unique across tables.
*
* Since attributes don't have OIDs of their own, we identify an attribute
* comment by the objoid+classoid of its parent table, plus an "objsubid"
* giving the attribute column number. "objsubid" must be zero in a comment
* for a table itself, so that it is distinct from any column comment.
* Currently, objsubid is unused and zero for all other kinds of objects,
* but perhaps it might be useful someday to associate comments with
* constituent elements of other kinds of objects (arguments of a function,
* for example).
