I understand the POV of both Evan and you here. However, I think that there might be a good solution for this particular case - to allow dropping functions by name only if it has the only signature, but if there are 2 or more signatures then print an error specifying all the forms of the function, eg.: ERROR: Can not drop function 'foo' because it has more then one signature: foo(integer), foo(text). I am sure It would simplify life significantly. -- Kind regards, Sergey Konoplev PostgreSQL Consultant and DBA http://www.linkedin.com/in/grayhemp +1 (415) 867-9984, +7 (901) 903-0499, +7 (988) 888-1979 gray.ru@xxxxxxxxx -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
