HI all, I see a lot of external tools that do a 'SELECT version()' and then parse the output to get the version number (e.g., 10.4). My opinion is that this is not a good approach, since the output of version includes a lot of information and can mismatch a poorly written regular expression. It would be better to use pg_config --version, byt again there is the needing for mangling the data. Is there any way to get directly the PostgreSQL version number? Thanks, Luca
