Subject: [pgadmin-hackers] windows pgAdmin III suggestion
=09
=09
Hi,
=20
I have been using Postgresql v8 and pgAdmin III on the win32
platform for a month or so now and it looks really good.
One frustration on the windows platform is that there isn't a
built in metadata export utility. It would be great to add it in as many
developers build schemas on windows and then upload to larger machines
for application testing. At the moment I am trying to use the EMS tools
to do this, but it is turning into a frustrating experience.
=20
Do you have any plans to add in this type of utility to the
windows version?

Hi Darren,
=20
In 1.2.0 you can use the backup tool to export a schema-only backup of a
database. If I understand your problem correctly this should do what you
need.
