Hi,

In PG, identifiers are limited to 32chars if I'm not mistaken, so when
you create a table with a relatively long name, containing a public
key (with a long name too), a sequence is (implicitly) created to store
the pkey. 

My question is : how to predict the exact name of this sequence knowing
the name of the table and the name of the pkey ?

I guess there is in the code somewhere a sprintf("%xf_%yf_seq",
table_name, key_name) with x and y beeing integers. If that's so what
are values of x and y ?

Thanks,

	Nico
