G'day Brent,
I'm forever creating tables as subsets of existing tables so it is a truly
useful function, however, I've suffered the same concerns - perhaps it is worth
pursuing the name being changed?
I've also never really understood the distinction between the populate_ and the
probe_ functi
I foubd this an unfortunately ambiguous name.
it doesn't populate geometry columns so much as update the geometry_columns
table.
But irrespective of the name, it is nice to have :-)

Hi
I imported a shape file using the QGis shapefile to PostgreSQL tool.
The resulting table appears as normal on the PGAdmin Object Browser and in QGis
as spatial geometry.
However the table is not existing according to a simple sql query. Other tables
are seen with no problem.

Hi Edward,
This will not work because this function doesn't do anything with views. Also
stale records aren't removed.

Hi All,
We have a lot of tables and views updated, or better said, replaced on a daily
