It is possible to get a test easily in this area by abusing of the fact that multiple -d switches defined in psql make it use only the last value. By looking at psql() in PostgresNode.pm you would see what I mean as -d is defined by default. Or we could just enforce PGHOST/PGPORT as there is a method to get the unix domain directory. Not sure which one of those two methods is most elegant though. I would tend for just using PGHOST and PGPORT. -- Michael -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
