What I'd like to see in 7.2 is a WAL API with the following functionality: * Get the latest transaction in the WAL * Get transaction, transId, from the WAL * Was a given transaction rolled back? What I don't want to have to worry about is all the internals needed for writting the log. I shouldn't need to know if a new seagment was created, when and where checkpoints are made, etc. Perhaps there could be a small library for just reading stuff the WAL file? The second suggestion I have is one I alreay alluded to and would offer to help work on. Namely replication for Postgres. Given the simple API listed above I already have a roughed out design for replication deamon. Just some suggestions. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
