Thanks for the suggestion Adrian,
Unfortunately, my process is executing from psql, so to start pg_dump from within psql is a bit challenging.
We have 1 instance where we start an OS process from a function, but it's new territory for us.
My function is dumping everything but the ACL grant list. I currently have a function that will build and execute
thegrants from the acl list,
so it's just a simple exercise to get it to dump the statements.
I was just hoping that there were standard functions for doing this.
Thanks
