Actually thinking about this, if you did it in a module, you'd probably want to make it an ERROR not a WARNING, because you'd want to actually stop queries like delete from t1 where x in (select x from table_with_no_column_x); rather than let them run. -- Andrew (irc:RhodiumToad) -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
