Hello,

is there any way to reload a shared object (.so) file with a C-function into 
Postgres? Seems that up from Postgres 8.2 the behaviour of LOAD has been 
changed:

If you need to force a reload of an object file, for example after recompiling 
it, use the LOAD command or begin a fresh session.

What does "begin a fresh session" mean? Neither by starting a new psql session 
on the command line, nor by restarting PgAdmin3 or reconnecting to the database using the 
JDBC driver the .so file is re-read.

In psql, I just reconnect to the database with a simple "\c[enter]"
In pgadmin, I have to close the sql window and open a new one.

every pgadmin window is a separate "session" so if you have a lot of open windows it is fastest to just save your work and exit and restart pgadmin or exit all your windows on the database.
