SELECT FOR UPDATE NOWAIT and PostgreSQL 8.0

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1


Hi,

AFAIR there was a thread about "SELECT FOR UPDATE NOWAIT" availability in 
{7.5,8.0}, 7-8 months ago.

Now we have LOCK TABLE ... NOWAIT; but I wonder whether we'll have the 
SELECT ... NOWAIT one.  Today I got a request for this; and it was 
reported that this feature will be used in a huge project.

If there is an unapplied patch that I've missed (even though I didn't see 
one in  http://momjian.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/pgpatches2), I'd like to 
know it -- taking all the risks, surely.

Regards,
