Hi!
When debugging on win32, I've created myself a little function that I feel should be added to the "backend proper". While it adds a lot of vlaue on win32, I think it adds quite a bit of value on non-win32 platforms as well...
The function is pg_kill_backend(<pid>,<signal>). superuser-only, of
course. Which simply sends a signal to the specified backend -
querycancel, terminate, etc.
If' we're going to have this shouldn't it be a proper command? And maybe an internal shutdown command to go with it?
cheers
