Thread: missing COMMENT ON objects
Hi, I notice you cannot COMMENT ON the following: * Cast * Conversion * Operator class Docs: http://developer.postgresql.org/docs/postgres/sql-comment.html Is that a deliberate omission, or is it an oversight? If it's deliberate, it seems kind of arbitrary. Or have the docs just not been updated? Chris

Unimplemented feature AFAIR. BTW, if you feel like doing something
about this, COMMENT ON LARGE OBJECT <oid> would be good too.

May as well assign it to me - I'll have a play with it. I assume this is a post-7.4 item? Chris
