Обсуждение: textsubstr() ...? for postgres 7 beta5

I have installed the beta 7 for postgres but... it seems to be missing
some text functions ? l

like the textsubstr ?

Is this beacuse it is a "beta" and the final release will include these
or are they forever droped ?

Please let me know

thank you

Huh?  There is no function named textsubstr() in 6.5.*, either.  Perhaps
you had some locally user-defined functions you forgot to reinstall?

Opps...

Ok, well I made a mistake....

it is not textsubstr() but this : (found in  6.5.2 redhat )

result  |function     |arguments      |description
--------+-------------+---------------+---------------------------------------

text    |text_substr  |text int4 int4 |return portion of string

Is this in 7.0 ?

(PS this is not user defined, well at least I did not make  it ...? )

thank you

Looks like it's called just plain "substr" now.  See
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/postgres/functions.htm

            regards, tom lane

Is there a copy of the old 6.5.x docs lying around somewhere?

We'll probably switch to 7.0 eventually but in the meantime it'll be good
to be able to access the old docs for 6.5.x

Cheerio,

Link.
