Indeed... Comment on operator adds the comment to the procedures, and drop operator removes comments from pg_operator, leaving left over entries in pg_description.
Looks like CommentOperator goes to quite a bit of work (5 lines) to accomplish fetching the procedure and states specifically it's not a bug. In which case RemoveOperator needs to drop comments by the procID as well. -- Rod ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dave Page" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, May 12, 2002 5:03 PM Subject: [HACKERS] Operator Comments > During some testing of pgAdmin's internals whilst adding schema support > I noticed that altering or setting a comment on an operator actually > sets the comment on the operator function. > > In other words, change the comment on testschema.+(int4, int4) and the > comment is actually set on the function pg_catalog.int4pl(int4, int4). > > Is this behaviour correct?
