I think we need a more general variable that can take several values, separated by commas, like:
log_line: dbname,user or something like that. In fact, looking at the postgresql.conf file, I see only two setting that print on every line: log_pid and log_timestamp. Perhaps those two should be merged into log_line. Of course, this is all for 7.5. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- scott.marlowe wrote: > On Tue, 5 Aug 2003, Andrew Dunstan wrote: > > > > > (Responding to the deafening silence regarding my posts a couple of days > > ago about logging dbnames and disconnections) ;-) > > > > The dbname patch is now done.
