Hi all, Is there a way to determine the pid of a database connection from within that connection? As a hypothetical example, I would like to be able to do the following: $ps x PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND 11674 ? S 0:00 sshd: webbs@pts/1 11675 pts/1 Ss 0:00 -bash 11682 pts/1 T 0:00 psql 11685 pts/1 R+ 0:00 ps x psql=# select CURRENT_PID; 11682 I want this so that I can log the psycopg2 connection pid, and kill it to test reconnection code. Thanks! -W
I think select pg_backend_pid(); will do that. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
