 does postgres support notifications.

for eg. through one connection to the server, i begin a transaction and i
do inserts there. in another sessions, i want to get notified that inserts
are taking place in someother session. please help.

Umm.. out of box, I don't think so. May be some triggers etc. can be placed
for information..Can you describe what you are trying to achieve?

I think NOTIFY/LISTEN should do this just fine, but you won't get the notification unless the transaction where NOTIFY gets called is committed.
