Hi, Attached is a small patch to improve the HINT message produced by CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION when the new function definition conflicts with the old definition. With this patch the hint now includes the function's name and signature as a directly pasteable SQL command. So, for example, instead of
psql:functions.sql:70: ERROR: cannot change return type of existing function HINT: Use DROP FUNCTION first. it now says psql:functions.sql:70: ERROR: cannot change return type of existing function HINT: Use DROP FUNCTION foo(integer,integer) first. which saves having to open the file, find the function and then type in the DROP statement manually. Regards, Dean
