Is this guaranteed to stay forever? Right now I'm developing a tool
which needs to fetch the lost of available databases. Everytime
I implement a query using pg_* (even such a simple one) I have a bad
feeling about possible future compatibility issues.
Isn't there a way to make the list of databases available in
information_schema and change this view whenever the underlaying
structure might change?
Bye
