Is there anything similar in Postgres?
The documentation you linked to describes how to provide information_schema plugins but not why you would want to do such a thing. I'm not seeing why this would be useful. The information_schema schema is described by the standard so creating new views in it isn't needed very often and the schema for the existing views doesn't change very often. I can see why a plugin might want to add rows to the views but that doesn't seem to be what this feature is about. -- greg -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
