I've successfully completed yet another extension, this time using the external language C to create a simple function that adds two integers. It was an exciting challenge to work with C and integrate it into the PostgreSQL environment.
The process involved in creating this extension was both fascinating and insightful. I had to ensure that the make and PGXS parts were included to explain the entire make procedure effectively. Understanding the intricacies of the makefile and how it interacts with the PostgreSQL system was a crucial aspect of this endeavor.
As always StackOverflow to the rescue.
