Thread: Dash in Extension Names
Hackers, So after Tom made "--" the separator between an extension name and the version information in extension file names -- becauseone might use "-" in the name itself, but probably not "--" -- it seems that the dash is not actually allowed: create extension pgtap-core; ERROR: syntax error at or near "-" LINE 1: create extension pgtap-core; Parser error? Thanks, David
