Thread: System Tables

Hi,

I made a list of all the system tables and there columns in an ascii
file. the only thing i am still missing is the meening of the columns :(

Q: does anyone already have such a file with explanations to each
column?
Q: does anyone know if there is a more accurate overview than the one on
the website (it is missing a lot of columns)?

thanks in advance

Maybe you haven't seen this::

http://www.postgresql.org/devel-corner/docs/postgres/catalogs.html

If you're talking about the graph, you're right, that's pretty scarce.

Read the source code ... specifically the table declarations in
src/include/catalog/
