Hello,

PgAdmin 1.3.0 (Apr 24 2005)
Wrong CHECK reverse engineering.

In PostgreSQL documentation i found:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
41.10. pg_constraint
Note
consrc is not updated when referenced objects change; for example,
it won't track renaming of columns. Rather than relying on this field,
it's best to use pg_get_constraintdef() to extract the definition
of a check constraint.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Here the script to demonstraint this behaviour:

-- First create function and constraints on table field and domain
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION "Check_IntegerGreaterZero"(int4)
  RETURNS bool AS
$BODY$
  select $1 > 0;
$BODY$
  LANGUAGE 'sql' VOLATILE SECURITY DEFINER;

CREATE TABLE "TestTable"
(
  test int4,
  CONSTRAINT "CHK_TestTable_Test" CHECK ("Check_IntegerGreaterZero"(test))
) 
WITHOUT OIDS;

CREATE DOMAIN "TestDomain"
  AS int4
   CONSTRAINT TestDomain_check CHECK "Check_IntegerGreaterZero"(VALUE);

-- Then just rename function
ALTER FUNCTION "Check_IntegerGreaterZero"(int4) RENAME TO "Check_IGZ";

--Watch pg_constraint and result of pg_get_constraintdef()
select conname, consrc, pg_get_constraintdef(pg_constraint.oid) from 
pg_constraint


conname                         |consrc                            
|pg_get_constraintdef
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
cardinal_number_domain_check    |(VALUE >= 0)                      |CHECK 
((VALUE>= 0))
CHK_TestTable_Test              |"Check_IntegerGreaterZero"(test)  
|CHECK("Check_IGZ"(test))
TestDomain_check                |"Check_IntegerGreaterZero"(VALUE) 
|CHECK("Check_IGZ"(VALUE))


I suppose that PgAdmin shows values from consrc.


Another feature request. The function described above 
("Check_IntegerGreaterZero") in PgAdmin
right bottom pane shows as
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- Function: Check_IntegerGreaterZero(in_Value int4)

-- DROP FUNCTION "Check_IntegerGreaterZero"(int4);

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION "Check_IntegerGreaterZero"(int4)
  RETURNS bool AS
$BODY$
  select $1 > 0;
$BODY$
  LANGUAGE 'sql' VOLATILE SECURITY DEFINER;
ALTER FUNCTION "Check_IntegerGreaterZero"(int4) OWNER TO postgres;

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It will be convenient for me if the first line will be

-- Function: "Check_IntegerGreaterZero"("in_Value" int4)

- quoted function name and argument names. It is useful for copy / paste 
purposes :)


Thank you for support.
