Agreed, we really need regression tests for this stuff one way or other. It's a lot of code, not very well tested, and likely to be modified in the future as well. > The difficulty in testing these is that they require configuration > files, which the regression tests really can't install.

How about putting the sample config files in contrib/tsearch, and copying them at "make install"? We have the capability to install contrib modules at the beginning of regression tests, right? -- Heikki Linnakangas EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
