I still have a hard time seeing why an extension would be interested in Log_disconnections. But hey, extensions do strange things.. You could use GetConfigOption(). I'm not necessarily opposed to exposing Log_disconnections, but with GetConfigOption() it will work with earlier versions too. - Heikki -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
