I have renamed the column from length to size. I also renamed the
timestamp columns to be more meaningful:
test=> select (pg_stat_file('.')).*;
size | access | modification |
change | creation | isdir
------+------------------------+------------------------+------------------------+----------+-------
512 | 2005-08-15 18:10:10-04 | 2005-08-15 17:30:28-04 | 2005-08-15
17:30:28-04 | | t
(1 row)
(Anyone have a better name for "change"?)
In doing this I also realized the ctime on Unix is change time (file
contents or inode), while on Win32 ctime is file creation time. I split
the ctime column into "change" and "creation", and one is null on each
platform. Above is the Unix output. I have also updated the catalog
version.
