Oops, turns out I did not exactly replicate what you where doing and my
previous answer is wrong.
What I found.
When I do this:
/usr/local/pgsql93/bin/pg_dump -Fc -U hplc_admin -p 5452 -f hplc.out hplc
and then this:
/usr/local/pgsql93/bin/pg_restore -c -t student_sessions -t
student_attendance -f hplc_table.sql hplc.out
I see what you see, no constraints or triggers in the SQL.
When I do what I originally posted about:
/usr/local/pgsql93/bin/pg_dump -Fc -c -t student_sessions -t
student_attendance -U hplc_admin -p 5452 -f hplc_tables_2.out hplc
and then this:
/usr/local/pgsql93/bin/pg_restore -c -f hplc_table_2.sql hplc_tables_2.out
I do see the constraints and triggers in the output.
I was under the impression that the result should be the same for both.
So I would consider this puzzling at the least and a bug at the most.
Someone else will have to chime in on what is really happening because I
do not know and I see nothing in the docs to suggest the behavior should
be different.
