Hi Jean-Michel,
Sounds great. My only concern is that you consider the way different code
has already been implemented in pgAdmin eg:
1) Any server side objects (SSOs) such as tables, functions or views should
be prefixed 'pgadmin_'. There is a mechanism in place in basSQL.bas which
will autorepair/upgrade SSOs. In the case of upgrades there is an SSO
version number stored in basGlobal.bas. If this doesn't match the version
number in the pgadmin_param table then an upgrade will occur.
2) Use the same error handling that is already implemented elsewhere.
Where applicable, be sure to reuse existing code like the SQL Wizard - no
point in writing another one!
Good luck,
Regards, Dave.
