Thread: ecpg -e
I am running 7.1.3... The docs for ecpg in 7.1.3 don't have the -e option in them! YET, ecpg -e WORKS!!! for solving the vacuum problem. Just WHAT does the -e option in ecpg do???? Thanks for the info... Lynn

Are you sure you mean '-e'? ecpg.c in 7.1.3 says: ... while ((c = getopt(argc, argv, "vo:I:tD:d")) != EOF) ... I do not see a -e here.

And yes, it already had the option '-t' in the same function as today, but I cannot find anything about an option '-e'.

Michael, Yes, '-e' is the argument. I possibly could have upgraded the code without upgrading the docs.... Here is the version output from ecpg... Let me know if this version of ecpg matches the 7.1.3 docs... [postgres@polaris bin]$ ecpg -V ecpg: invalid option -- V ecpg - the postgresql preprocessor, version: 2.8.0 Usage: ecpg: [-v] [-t] [-I include path] [ -o output file name] [-D define name] file1 [file2] ... [postgres@polaris bin]$ Thanks for your help! Lynn Quoting Michael Meskes <meskes@postgresql.org>: > On Wed, Dec 03, 2003 at 02:24:49PM -0700, Lynn.Tilby@asu.edu wrote: > > I am running 7.1.3...
