I've committed a bit more to variable.c to handle integer inputs to GUC parameters (string and float were already supported). I've included the cvs log message below.
Further changes aren't precluded of course, but the code now supports string, integer, and floating point inputs to parameters (for those parameters which can accept them ;). - Thomas Convert GUC parameters back to strings if input as integers. Change elog(ERROR) messages to say that a variable takes one parameter, rather than saying that it does not take multiple parameters. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/faq.html
