Hi,

I just hit twice the delete button on a function I spent two days writing (without backing it up. I know... I know...). Is there a way to recover it?


Ahm, there's the security question, which asks for confirmation (which may be disabled for people like me who newwer pressss da wrong kay :-) A dropped object is dropped, but (as any row in a table) is still physically present until VACUUMed. In theory, the XID could be tuned back (by hacking the kernel), but I doubt it's worth the trouble.



A simple garbage would do the job. I don't know many software now that do not implement a sort of simple mecanism to recover what we threw away by mistake...

Not this kind of stuff. The object tree is not an editor, but a structured view of database content. We're executing "DROP FUNCTION dontDropMe()" and that's it.

Happy recoding...

Regards,
Andreas
