Author Logging from multiple connections
Kevin Grittner

Just a couple jdbc logging suggestions.

Wading through loglevel=2 output today, it occurred to me that it would
be nice if the jdbc log file included a prefix with something to
identify the connection. Sometimes you can only get an error to occur
on a busy system with multiple active connections, and the jdbc log
currently mixes everything together, which can make it hard to follow.

A timestamp could also be useful, since I'm often trying to find
something in the jdbc log related to events from other logs which have a
timestamp.

If I've missed a way to configure these, please let me know.

Yes, this is on my todo list..

The simplest way to do it seems to be to just have a static driver-wide
counter to assign IDs to connections.

I considered backend PID, but that could in theory be duplicated, and
you can always match up PID to connection ID from the initial connection
setup logging.

I just committed something like this to CVS HEAD -- loglevel is now
handled per connection (previously it was effectively driver-wide,
despite being specified as part of the connection URL), and logging
output now has both a connection ID and timestamp on each line.

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
match
