Hello all,

Just wondering if the datetime type was dropped on purpose from
PostgreSQL 7.3 ?
This is not an issue of course, I'll be using timestamp, but it's
weird having that dropped.

-------------------------------
-- On PostgreSQL 7.2:
-------------------------------
howe=# select version();
version
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
PostgreSQL 7.2.1 on i386-portbld-freebsd4.6.2, compiled by GCC 2.95.3
(1 row)

howe=# create table a(b datetime);
CREATE
howe=# \d a
Table "a"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+-----------------------------+-----------
b | timestamp without time zone |


-------------------------------
-- On PostgreSQL 7.3:
-------------------------------
howe=# select version ();
version
---------------------------------------------------------------------
PostgreSQL 7.3b3 on i386-unknown-freebsd4.4, compiled by GCC 2.95.3
(1 row)

howe=# create table a(b datetime);
ERROR: Type "datetime" does not exist

-------------
Best regards,
