Subject: Re: [pgadmin-support] Pgadmin III not honoring
DATESTYLE
Hello Dave
I understand your answer, bu if you check in PgAdmin II this
works fine, so it is an unexpected change. I beleive PgAdmin III should
inquire from the server the setting of DATESTYLE and use it, just as
before.
Thanks and best regards
Hi Francisco,
pgAdmin II is a totally different codebase, which we learned a lot from.
One of those things was that having differing datestyles can lead to
confusion and accidental data corruption (if you've ever had to try to
fix the dates in a multi-million row table you'll know where I'm coming
from). As I said in an earlier email, if someone want's to write a patch
that makes honouring DATESTYLE a non-default option, then we'll
certainly consider including it, however this is not something I intend
to work on.
Regards, Dave.
