Thread: pg_regress and --dbname option / multiple databases
Hi pg_regress provides the command line option "--dbname", which is described in the help output thusly: --dbname=DB use database DB (default "regression") It does however accept multiple comma separated names and will create a database for each name provided, but AFAICS only ever uses the first database in the list. Is there a reason for this I'm not seeing? Regards Ian Barwick -- Ian Barwick http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services

The latter uses multiple databases, I believe. cheers andrew
