Why do we need parsers? pgAdmin I had very simple queries to track dependencies (ILIKE '%function_foo%' clause). This suffice to build a provides clause is each object. For example, if "function_foo" is used in "view_bar" and "function_bar": function_foo->provides="function:function_bar;view:view_bar" view_bar->requires="function:function_foo"; function_bar->requires="function:function_foo"; If you prefer, provides = child, requires = father. I agree this is not as powerfull as a recursive dependency table, but this suffice to offer 99% security to users. The purpose is not to track n-levels of dependecies but just visualize 1 level for security reasons. So why not implement it in pgSchema? Cheers, Jean-Michel
