Обсуждение: Patch: create or replace language
Hello, following this old discussion: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-patches/2008-03/msg00402.php i modifies the patch to use the "CREATE [OR REPLACE] LANGUAGE" syntax. If the patch is ok, i will add the documentation too. Kind regards -- Andreas 'ads' Scherbaum German PostgreSQL User Group European PostgreSQL User Group - Board of Directors Volunteer Regional Contact, Germany - PostgreSQL Project PGDay.eu 2009 in Paris, Nov. 6/7, http://www.pgday.eu/

This is not an "OR REPLACE" operation, because it doesn't replace the existing definition. What you've got here is a CREATE IF NOT EXISTS implementation that arbitrarily uses the other syntax. The point of the previous discussion was summed up here: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-patches/2008-03/msg00416.php namely that CREATE OR REPLACE should leave the object having the properties specified in the command. regards, tom lane

Please send a context diff (however much ED IS THE STANDARD!!! TEXT EDITOR, we don't like its patches here). Note that you probably missed updates to other functions touching the node to which you add the boolean.

Maybe I'm out of line to say this, but it seems to me that we should not even be looking at newly-submitted patches at this point. ...Robert

Yeah, it was so short I didn't see any point in not commenting. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc.

It would have been more work to put it in the queue to reject later
than to reject it now ;-). Besides, this way Andreas has a chance
to rewrite it into something acceptable before the next CF.

Maybe when implementing this, it can be worth to keep an eye on ALTER LANGUAGE too ? -- Thanks Bernd
