Hi -

Does anyone use the gawk extension? I think it is the coolest thing.

I see that it installed .so files on my system from the fedora package manager but there is no .sql file or control file in the extension directory.

I searched with kfind utility and didn't find anything.

I can't seem to use create extension to get it installed.

Please help if you know the trick.

thanks

Are you talking about this: http://gawkextlib.sourceforge.net/pgsql/pgsql.html ?

I haven't used it, but from the description it sounds like an extension for the
gawk utility which provides PostgreSQL connectivity via libpq, not an extension
to be installed in PostgreSQL.
