let me add this too:
i have compiled postgres 8.1.4 even if configure didnt detect int8,uint8,int64 and uint64.
i have tried to create a test table with datattype as int64 , but it says no such datatype, same is with uint8 an
uint64datatypes. of the four mentioned above, int8 only is recognised as a datatype. which means i have compiled
postgresqlwithout int64/uint64 support ???
any gotchas ?
tia
