To me, this is a wonderful feature, thanks! I think many people would be happy if this patch woud be included to the mainstream (and it is quite short and simple).

About name ordering - I think that the problem exists for objects:

1. Stored functions.
2. Foreign keys/triggers (objects which has owning objects).

It is wonderful that you store all functions with the same name to the same file. To order them within this file we may simply compare the first definition line lexicographically (or - first line which differs one function definition from another).

Foreign key/triggers ordering problem is described by me at

The big problem is with triggers: many triggers may have the same name, but be bound to different tables. It would be great to include these triggers to table's definition or, at least, have separated files for each trigger+table pair.

I think they're fundamentally different things, because the previously
proposed patch is an extension of the machine-readable archive format,
and has to remain so because of the expectation that people will want
to use parallel restore with it.  Joel is arguing for a split-up of
the text dump format.


Yes, exactly.

My patch is of course also a lot smaller :-)
pg_dump-directory.diff.........................: 112 853 bytes
pg-dump-split-plain-text-files-9.1devel.patch..:   5 579 bytes

I just tried the pg_dump-directory.diff patch.
The only thing is has in common with my patch is it writes data to different files, and it's only the data which is splitted into different files, the schema appears to go into the single file "TOC".

Example, pg_dump-directory.diff:

$ ./pg_dump -f /crypt/dirpatch -F d -s glue
$ ls -la /crypt/dirpatch/
TOC
(1 file)

$ rm -rf /crypt/dirpatch

$ ./pg_dump -f /crypt/dirpatch -F d glue

$ ls /crypt/dirpatch/
6503.dat
6504.dat
...lots of files...
6871.dat
6872.dat
6873.dat
6874.dat
TOC

Example, pg_dump --split patch:

$ pg_dump -f /crypt/splitpatch -F p --split -s glue

$ ls /crypt/splitpatch*
/crypt/splitpatch (file)
/crypt/splitpatch-split: (directory)
    myschema1
    myschema2
    public
$ ls /crypt/splitpatch-split/public/
AGGREGATE
CONSTRAINT

$ ls /crypt/splitpatch-split/public/FUNCTION/
    myfunc.sql
    otherfunc.sql

$ cat /crypt/splitpatch
