BUG #6152: possibly wrong display of pg_settings.enumvals for default_transaction_isolation - Mailing list pgsql-bugs

The following bug has been logged online:

Bug reference:      6152

Description:        possibly wrong display of pg_settings.enumvals for
default_transaction_isolation
Details:

Hi

$ psql -c 'SELECT name,vartype,enumvals FROM pg_settings;' | grep
default_transaction_isolation
could not change directory to "/root"
 default_transaction_isolation   | enum    | {serializable,"repeatable
read","read committed","read uncommitted"}

Using e.g.:
default_transaction_isolation = "read committed"
does not work however. It only works in single quotes.

If I don't get something wrong, there should be either a bug in the output
of pg_settings.enumvals or the parsing of the config file.


Cheers,
Chris.
