PG_LANGUAGE

PG_LANGUAGE registers programming languages. You can use them and APIs to write functions or stored procedures.

**Table 1** PG_LANGUAGE columns
Name	Type	Reference	Description
oid	oid	-	Row identifier (hidden attribute, which must be specified).
lanname	name	-	Language name.
lanowner	oid	oid in PG_AUTHID	Owner of the language.
lanispl	Boolean	-	The value is false for internal languages (such as SQL) and true for user-defined languages. Currently, gs_dump still uses this column to determine which languages need to be dumped, but this might be replaced by a different mechanism in the future.
lanpltrusted	Boolean	-	The value is 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. The value is false if this is an untrusted language. Only the initial user can create functions in untrusted languages.
lanplcallfoid	oid	oid in PG_PROC	For non-internal languages, this column references the language handler, which is a special function responsible for executing all functions that are written in the particular language.
laninline	oid	oid in PG_PROC	This column references a function responsible for executing "inline" anonymous code blocks (DO blocks). The value is 0 if inline blocks are not supported.
lanvalidator	oid	oid in PG_PROC	This column references a language validator function responsible for checking the syntax and validity of new functions when they are created. The value is 0 if no validator is provided.
lanacl	aclitem[]	-	Access permissions
