I have committed this patch with a few changes. First, I felt that there was little point in showing this detail only in verbose mode; indeed, it seems like that could be confusing in some circumstances. (I thought I checked this was an index not a constraint? Oh, crap, I forgot to say \d+). So I removed that check. Second, I felt that UNIQUE, CONSTRAINT, btree (a) was one too many commas, so I made it just say UNIQUE CONSTRAINT, btree (a) instead. I didn't see any discussion of either of these points in the previous discussion of this patch, so hopefully neither change is objectionable (but if it is, we can revisit it, if someone thinks I'm all wet!). Thanks to Josh for the patch and Kevin for the review; I think this is a good change. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise Postgres Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
