Обсуждение: Ok, I broke down...
In the process of upgrading a few systems for the Beta, I ended up writing a tool to upgrade the Foreign key, Unique, and Serial objects to their 7.3 version from the 7.2 version (may work on prior -- but not guarenteed). I imagine it'll fail miserably on mixed case, or names with spaces -- but oh well. Anyway, goes through step by step asking the user if they wish to upgrade each element. Lightly tested http://www.rbt.ca/postgresql/upgrade.shtml It assumes you've already dumped / upgraded / restored to 7.3 before running the script. Kinda slow, but safe to run more than once.
Whoot! I was just thinking about writing such a tool. Thanks.

Feel free to add to it. It's creation was primarily to get Autodoc to work with my old 7.2 structures. - Needs to handle mixed case / quoted element names (UNIQUE keys especially). - Deferred foreign key constraints. I use neither, so I'm not overly worried about either unless I get a bunch of requests. On Thu, 2002-09-05 at 21:37, Christopher Kings-Lynne wrote: > Whoot!
