Is there anyway to declare a constant that you can then use within a postgresql 'session', i am connecting from a PHP based application and trying to integrate another.



At the worst you should be able to use a table with a row for each session
that includes the value to be used for each session.


Would this be a postgresql session? If so how do I go about accessing it from a query/setting the value of it? I have looked at set authorization but I don't think this is where I should be looking!

PostgreSQL does not have userland session variables. You would have to write some custom set/get functions in a procedural language that is capable of holding global data across function calls (like PL/Tcl).
