Re: Is this a Postgres Bug?

Seems this is not a bug.
Although 32767 doesn't exceed the 2bit int range.
But (32767 + 10) exceed the signed 2bit int range.
If you want to add index for the sum of the 2 columns, why don't you add a new column with a larger range (int32) ?

Subject: [GENERAL] Is this a Postgres Bug?

First off, I've posted this question on StackOverflow in case anyone
wants to answer it:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11814132/postgresql-smallint-overflowing-when-creating-index-on-multiple-columns-is-th

The repro can be found here: http://sqlfiddle.com/#!1/734d7/1

I'm happy to log this as a bug, unless someone can explain to me why
this behavior is by design. Thanks!

Mike
