Assuming you're using file streams to write to the pipe, fflush() will do
the trick.

 Subject: [HACKERS] A portable code question


 In the little fix I came up with for psql last night, I need to be able
 to ensure that something sent to a pipe (and then to stdout) completes
 before issuing the prompt directly to stdout.

 I did this with: system ('sleep 1');, but I'm fairly sure that is
 not portable nor does it ENSURE completion.

 What's the proper way to do this?  And what's a good book on writing
 portable code?

[HACKERS] Multi Table Indexes

2003-06-16 Thread Benjamin Minshall
Greetings Hackers-

I have an interest in developing better OO support in PostgreSQL, and have
done some preliminary research in the archives and TODO list.  It appears
that this topic hasn't gotten much traffic in a while, so I thought I'd test
the waters.  What do the gurus here think of implementing multi-table
indexes as a vehicle toward better inheritance of keys?  Perhaps someone
here who is more familiar with the code tree can comment on the magnitude of
this addition.

Thanks,
