I was thinking of changing it to IsSchemaPublication as suggested by Greg unless you feel differently. I did not use GetPublicationSchemas function because in our case we just need to check if there is any schema publication, we don't need the schema list to be prepared in this case. That is the reason I wrote a new function which just checks if any schema is present or not for the publication. I'm planning to use CheckSchemaPublication (renamed to IsSchemaPublication) so that the list need not be prepared. > +CREATE ROLE regress_publication_user3 LOGIN SUPERUSER; > +GRANT regress_publication_user2 TO regress_publication_user3; > +SET ROLE regress_publication_user3; > +SET client_min_messages = 'ERROR'; > +CREATE PUBLICATION testpub4 FOR ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA pub_test; > +RESET client_min_messages; > +SET ROLE regress_publication_user; > +ALTER ROLE regress_publication_user3 NOSUPERUSER; > +SET ROLE regress_publication_user3; > > I think this test setup can be simplified a bit: > > CREATE ROLE regress_publication_user3 LOGIN; > GRANT regress_publication_user2 TO regress_publication_user3; > SET client_min_messages = 'ERROR'; > CREATE PUBLICATION testpub4 FOR ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA pub_test; > RESET client_min_messages; > ALTER PUBLICATION testpub4 OWNER TO regress_publication_user3; > SET ROLE regress_publication_user3; I will make this change in the next version.
