Andres,

Thank you for your reply. The frustrating thing about this is the same
source works fine in Linux. So here is the pseudo code of my source
removing non pgsql stuff and not expected to be runnable:

PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1(myfunc);
Datum myfunc(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS)
{
if (SRF_IS_FIRSTCALL()) {
funcctx = SRF_FIRSTCALL_INIT();
oldcontext = MemoryContextSwitchTo(funcctx->multi_call_memory_ctx);
SPIcode = SPI_connect();

// execute some SPI queries and load some structures
// execute a query and save the tuptable and
// other stuff in funcctx->user_fctx

MemoryContextSwitchTo(oldcontext);
}

funcctx = SRF_PERCALL_SETUP();

if (call_cntr < max_calls) {

// process a row in my saved tuptable

SRF_RETURN_NEXT(funcctx, result)
}
else { // we are all done cleanup
// free stuff from my library
SPI_freetuptable(my_tuptable);
SPIcode = SPI_finish(); // <<<<< CRASHES HERE >>>>>
SRF_RETURN_DONE(funcctx);
}
}

So, like I said, it runs on Linux not in MinGW on windows. Anyway, did I
mess up the memory context switching? Is there a way I can force the
context to the appropriate place.

Thanks,
-Steve
