Is anyoune working on information schema (or pg_xxx views) for use in psql and other development frontends? Also, are there plans to have SQL-accessible backend_pid function in the backend by default ? On RH 7.1 I can create it as: CREATE FUNCTION getpid() RETURNS integer AS '/lib/libc.so.6','getpid' LANGUAGE 'C'; But I'd like it to be a builtin from the start so one can query it without relying on libpq --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hannu ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
