Description
PostgreSQL is an advanced Object-Relational database management system (DBMS) that supports almost all SQL constructs (including
transactions, sub-selects and user-defined types and functions). The postgresql package includes the client programs and libraries that
you'll need to access a PostgreSQL DBMS server. These PostgreSQL client programs are programs that directly manipulate the internal
structure of PostgreSQL databases on a PostgreSQL server. These client programs can be located on the same machine with the PostgreSQL
server, or may be on a remote machine which accesses a PostgreSQL server over a network connection. This package contains the docs
in HTML for the whole package, as well as command-line utilities for managing PostgreSQL databases on a PostgreSQL server.
If you want to manipulate a PostgreSQL database on a local or remote PostgreSQL server, you need this package. You also need to install this package if you're installing the postgresql-server
package.
The database is available as 32-bit and 64-bit:
- If you are compiling a 32-bit program, no special compiler options are needed.
- If you are compiling a 64-bit program, you have to compile and link your application with "cc -q64" or "gcc -maix64".
Please note:
- As PostgreSQL is provided in 32-bit as well as in 64-bit all 32-bit binaries are called "
<binary name>_32
" while all 64-bit binaries are called "<binary_name>_64
".
- There are two scripts provided that switch between the 32-bit and 64-bit variant. These two scripts are called "
postgresql-switch-to-32_bit.sh
" and "postgresql-switch-to-64_bit.sh
".
- Default is the 64-bit variant.
