+1. I don't care for the idea of "not moving from main error message to errdetail" -- the rationale seems to be that errdetail might be hidden, lost, or otherwise not read by the user; if that is so, why do we have errdetail in the first place? We might as well just move all the errdetails into the main message, huh? -- Álvaro Herrera http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
