The log I would like to propose is used when the performance issue happen, system administrator knows the process of application internally and check if there is any problem. "debug" is not the correct description of the feature. The correct one should be "trace". Should I create another thread? > > The provided information is "date and time" at which execution of processing > is started, "query", "application side processing", which is picked up > information from PQtrace(), and "connection id", which is for uniquely > identifying the connection. > > PQtrace() is utterly useless for anything except debugging libpq internals, > and it's not tremendously useful even for that. Don't bother with that part. My initial intention was to get only useful information from PQTrace () since it acquires a lot of information. Is there another way to obtain application side information besides PQTrace() ? > Where will you get a "unique connection id" from? When collecting trace log file in the application side, I think it is necessary to identify different connection. In order to do this, when new empty PQconn structure is created, new connection id is also created. Then we output it in the trace log file for one application. > How will you deal with asynchronously-executed queries --- either the > PQgetResult style, or the single-row-at-a-time style? In my understanding, PQgetResult style outputs logs of multiple result queries at once, While the single-row-at-a-time style outputs log for each query. Is this correct? I think PQgetResult style is better, because this style traces the internal process of the application. Regards, Aya Iwata
