 Doc bug The documentation at http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/i...g-setting.html states that: Boolean values may be written as ON, OFF, TRUE, FALSE, YES, NO, 1, 0 (all case-insensitive) or any unambiguous prefix of these. But the following doesn't work: postgres=# set enable_seqscan = of; ERROR: parameter "enable_seqscan" requires a Boolean value postgres=# 'of' is an unambiguous prefix of OFF, but it clearly doesn't work. Is it the documentation that needs fix or is it the code? I tried the following too: set enable_seqscan = "of"; -- doesn't work set enable_seqscan = "off"; -- works BTW, I tried TR, TRU, FA, FAL, FALS, YE. They all work fine.

| Re: Doc bug Hi Jim, The code has been fixed by Bruce in response to my bug#2851 ( http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql.../msg00191.php). BTW, I don't know how to make sure that the effect of a doc patch looks fine in a browser. I mean, how to view the doc/src/sgml/*.sgml in a browser, nicely formatted as we see on our website! I wish PostgreSQL community a very Happy New Year...

One would like to be sure that he used the correct (or more appropriate) tags while writing the patch. I see that there's a stylesheet.css file in doc/src/sgml/, but I don't think the browser (firefox) uses it to render the .sgml files (or I don't know how to make it do that!) Moreover, can the above mentioned link be moved to the official website? Best regards, -- gurjeet[.singh]@EnterpriseDB.com singh.gurjeet@{ gmail | hotmail | yahoo }.com |
