At low level it should work as long as several log streams are reserved for the core code. However, as every single stream needs multiple variables, I have no idea how to configure those additional streams w/o adding many new GUC variables to the core. Also the discussion what should (not) be logged separate would probably be difficult. Specifically to log SQL statements to a separate file, I think (but not verified) that you can write an extension that reserves a stream for itself and also uses emit_log_hook to recognize SQL statements among the logged messages. If the hook adjusts the syslogger_stream field of ErrorData accordingly, the message should end up in the separate file. -- Antonin Houska Cybertec Schönig & Schönig GmbH Gröhrmühlgasse 26 A-2700 Wiener Neustadt Web: http://www.postgresql-support.de, http://www.cybertec.at -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
