Hi

Please find updated patch following changes:
1) Keep field 'opclass' combo box enabled.
2) Keep ASC/DESC and NULLs FIRST/LAST options disable for access methods other than 'btree'.
3) Add validation for name field.

Hi,

This still doesn't seem right to me. For example, if I choose an
access method that doesn't have a default operator class for the
selected data type, Postgres asks me to explicitly choose one, which I
now can't because the combo box is disabled. Conversely, whilst the
opclass should probably not be disabled, the ASC/DESC and NULLs
FIRST/LAST options probably should be disabled (right now, they're
just ignored).

Thoughts?
