There has been some previous banter about reorganizing or reclassifying the various NOTICE messages to make them more useful and/or less noisy; but I don't think we've ever had a really concrete proposal for better behavior. Maybe it's time to reopen that discussion. I do agree with Peter's underlying point: it would be pretty inconsistent for CREATE OR REPLACE to report this bit of info via command tag when CREATE IF NOT EXISTS is reporting an absolutely equivalent bit of info via elog(NOTICE). regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
