d another which would
indicate that there's postmaster's parent process running? - Using flock
and fcntl semantics respectively (or flock semantics with children
immediately closing their fds).
And of course locking is file system dependant, just think NFS on linux
where virtually no loc
en fcntl and flock in
Linux: although fork(2) states that file locks are not inherited, locks
made by flock are inherited to children and they keep the lock even when
the parent process is killed with SIGKILL. Tested this.
Just see man syscall, there exists both
flock(2)
and
fcntl(2
ildren still running?

But it could be better and easier to have pl/pgsql function that could set
the session authorization.
So, could it be made possible that pl/pgsql functions created by superuser
could "set session authorization" even when not called by superuser (or

Wouldn't it be nice to add here
If table doesn't contain row oids, in place of oid
is the primary key of the newly inserted record (if any)

fresh brand new primary key from it? No thanks...
Anyways, I've got an idea: what about having option that INSERTs return
"oid_status" in form
major = '224' and minor = '10'
or
state = 'ca'
?
Then you could just

for different client versions... don't know, how it should be actually
done. Maybe there would be schemas "info_compat_74", "info_compat_75"
and "information_schema_80" in PostgreSQL 8.0 :P a

I think 7.4 could and really should implement SHOW command similar to
MySQL. Listing tables/foreign keys/views and so isn't just psql problem,
but common to many interface implementations and maintenance tools. I
think it's wrong to rely on pg_* system tables on these.

What about copy? AFAIK, copy doesn't allow column names being specified,
so it's not purely aesthetic...

Ok... this is true, but not so hard - yesterday I installed 7.3b2

Actually nothing changes. The unique constraint doesn't add anything new -
it allows NULLs in column b and requires that combination (a, b) is
unique... and it definitely is because column 'a' is unique (primary key).
It just creates a multicol index and add
esponding newly inserted tuple in b?
Or should I just write my own triggers for checking the integrity of
"b"/"bref" column pair to avoid needless index creation?
