The package includes EnterpriseDB's pl/pgsql debugger plugin which may be used by the debugger UI in pgAdmin to help with development of your database functions. The debugger plugin is disabled by default for performance reasons. To enable it, follow the following steps:
shared_preload_libraries = '$libdir/plugins/plugin_debugger.so'
shared_preload_libraries = '$libdir/plugins/plugin_debugger.dll'
For further information, please see the pgAdmin online help, and the debugger plugin README file.
