Thread: Rename standard_conforming_strings to standard_strings
I am having trouble remembering the name of the new GUC parameter, "standard_conforming_strings". I am thinking "standard_strings" is clearer, and shorter. I would like to rename this. The parameter will be new in 8.2. -- Bruce Momjian http://candle.pha.pa.us EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. +

Too late to rename now. -- Bruce Momjian http://candle.pha.pa.us EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. +

The name is already out in places we can't easily change, eg the CVE descriptions for the recent security issues. Live with it. regards, tom lane
