Thread: pgAdmin preBeta4 - results
Hello Dave,<br /><br />I was using that .exe from yesterday intensly.<br /><br />There was only one "stuck" situation, andthat was a long running query, and in the middle of the process a virus scanner started to scan. So far from my side:good bugfixing! <br /><br /><br />One very frustrating habbit was the resizing of the columns of the data grid: I coulddrag them to every width; but with the next run of the query they moved back to standard. I am not sure if this qualifiesas "bug", or rather "feature request", as "do not resize column-width unless types or numbers of query result columnschange" <br /><br />Thansk for all that good work,<br /><br />Harald<br /><br clear="all" /><br />-- <br />GHUM HaraldMassa<br />persuadere et programmare<br />Harald Armin Massa<br />Reinsburgstraße 202b<br />70197 Stuttgart<br />0173/9409607<br/>-<br />Python: the only language with more web frameworks than keywords.
pgAdmin v.1.6 beta 3 (5508:5517) has been good for me so far. all the issues i had with previous versions seem fixed andi can't find new ones ;-) good job, dave! i am still a bit bummed about two of my biggest pgAdmin pet peeves not being resolved (no distinction between a NULL anda zero-length string in the grids and the loss of clipboard after closing the app), but we will wait patiently! > -----Original Message----- > From: pgadmin-support-owner@postgresql.org > [mailto:pgadmin-support-owner@postgresql.org] On Behalf Of > Harald Armin Massa > Sent: Tuesday, October 24, 2006 12:13 AM > To: Dave Page; pgAdmin Support > Subject: [pgadmin-support] pgAdmin preBeta4 - results > > Hello Dave, > > I was using that .exe from yesterday intensly. > > There was only one "stuck" situation, and that was a long > running query, and in the middle of the process a virus > scanner started to scan.

Thanks - and thanks for the feedback! > i am still a bit bummed about two of my biggest pgAdmin pet peeves not being > resolved (no distinction between a NULL and a zero-length string in the grids Err, the edit grid has always distinguished between them - from http://www.pgadmin.org/docs/dev/editgrid.html: If an SQL NULL is to be written to the table, simply leave the field empty. If you store a new row, this will let the server fill in the default value for that column. If you store a change to an existing row, the value NULL will explicitly be written. And If you want pgAdmin III to write an empty string to the table, you enter the special string '' (two single quotes) in the field. If you want to write a string containing solely two single quotes to the table, you need to escape these quotes, by typing \'\' The grid displays blank for null or '' for empty string, just as you would enter. I grant you that I don't think the query grid does differentiate - I'll bung that on the roadmap. > and the loss of clipboard after closing the app), but we will wait patiently! I didn't realise it did lose it. I'll add that too. Regards, Dave

I'll add that too. http://archives.postgresql.org/pgadmin-support/2006-05/msg00065.php where is this "roadmap" anyway? might be good to review for my own edification and to adjust expectations. thanks! george

I only wrote it at lunchtime actually - it's the list of items that we actually expect to do in the next release cycle (as opposed to the TODO list which contains all sorts of idea that may never get done): http://www.pgadmin.org/development/roadmap.php Regards, Dave.
