I believe that's correct. It seems kinda inconsistent though. > For example, in 7.2 I see pg_hba.conf opened with "r" and pg_ident.conf > opened with PG_BINARY_R. The latter is clearly wrong, since pg_ident.conf is not binary. Is there any interest in defining #define PG_TEXT_R "r" #define PG_TEXT_W "w" so that AllocateFile is always called with one of this set of macros? Or is that just silly? regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
