I don't think this is an improvement. It seems to me that a lot more work is required to maintain these regular expressions, which while straightforward are not entirely trivial (harder to read). If we could come up with a reasonable format that is pre-processed to a regexp, that might be better. I think Thomas' proposed patch is closer to that than Horiguchi-san's. -- Álvaro Herrera http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
