Thread: pg_dumpall problem in 7.1 and cvs

If there is a comment on a view, pg_dumpall can put them in the wrong order:

--
-- pg_dumpall (7.2devel)
--
...
--
-- TOC Entry ID 363 (OID 31291)
--
-- Name: VIEW "all_persons" Type: COMMENT Owner:
--

COMMENT ON VIEW "all_persons" IS 'All persons - individuals or not';

--
-- TOC Entry ID 362 (OID 31308)
--
-- Name: all_persons Type: VIEW Owner: olly
--

CREATE VIEW "all_persons" as SELECT person.ptype, person.id, person.name, 
person.address, person.salutation, person.envelope, person.email, person.www 
FROM person;



This seems to have happened with every view in this dump.  I haven't managed
to work out why it happens.

Drat.  I fixed the identical problem for permissions a little while ago,
but didn't realize that it extended to comments too.  Thanks for the
report!

I've committed a fix for this in both CVS tip and REL7_1_STABLE.
