Hi all
I have been using postgreSQL for a while now and it is doing the job
I want it to. Thank you to all pgsql-hackers for their good job.
I am running a vanilla 6.3.2 installed from
postgresql-{,clients-,devel-,data-}6.3.2-4.rpm. Some of the problems
of taht distribution stem from the rpm specfile (for instance, a
world-writable and world-readable pg_pwd !!) and are not interesting
for this list.
However, there is one thing which I find annoying:
testdata=> CREATE TABLE test ( number int check ( number > 3 ) );
works fine, but the table is dumped with a different syntax:
CREATE TABLE test (number int4) CONSTRAINT test_number CHECK number > 3;
which is not accepted back:
testdata=> CREATE TABLE test (number int4) CONSTRAINT test_number CHECK number > 3;
ERROR: parser: parse error at or near "constraint"
Now, the second syntax is standard SQL and the parser should
recognize it, but in any case at least pg_dump compliance should be
aimed at.
Bye
Dario
