PostgreSQL service manager

From
"Darko Prenosil"
Date:
    I wrote PostgreSQL service manager (for spoiled windows users) using
wxWindows that can query service status, start, stop and restart postmaster
service under windows(currently under cygwin, but this should work even with
native port when finished as long as service name is "postmaster"). I would
also like to implement it for linux, but this one I did not finished yet.
    It was a litle play with wxWindows and MinGW since I saw yours choice of
tools for PgAdmin3.
    Concerning the fact that PgAdmin is No.1 free Postgres GUI, I would be
glad to contribute the code If You are interseted.

    Regards !

Hi Darko,

Thanks for the offer! Certainly I think we would like to see your code
and integrate it if possible, though it will not be included in our
first release I doubt as we are just entering feature freeze.

On the *nix side of things incidently, I think most of the PostgreSQL
scripts have now been rewritten in C. This probably includes pg_ctl
which may provide a starting point for your code.

Regards, Dave.

Hi Darko,

thanks for your interes in pgAdmin3. If you contribute a
dlgServerCtrl.cpp/.h/.xrc that works as property dialog for a PG_SERVER
node, I'd certainly find the time to add this to pgAdmin3. Please try to
check if the user has sufficient rights to start/stop/restart.

I noticed your Hungarian mail address, and I wonder if you'd like to
contribute the Hungarian translation for pgAdmin3? It's quite easy using
poEdit.

Regards,
Andreas

Yes, but I meant to disable the start/stop options if privileges are not
sufficient.

Blame on me... I should have known better, I've been to your wonderful
country last year sailing from Split to Zadar, enjoying people, land,
cities and food.
Please accept my deepest apologies!

Nevertheless, your language contribution certainly is welcome. We want
to make pgAdmin3 a key to easy PostgreSQL access, and every native
language supported enlarges the base of potential users.

Regards,
Andreas

Windows service manager does that - nothing to do on form - just report SCM
error !

We would contribute Croatian rather than Hungarian translation if You don't
mind :-)
HR is not Hungary(.hu), but CROATIA ! Native name for Croatia is Hrvatska and
there where HR comes from.
