PostgreSQL 8.4.3

Category : Technology/PostgreSQL8dot4dot3.txt

Hai Hwee has updated our PostgreSQL Installer to use the latest 8.4.3 release of PostgreSQL.

If you've used her installer to install the previous 8.4.0 version, you can now simply upgrade to 8.4.3 and the installer script will also move your data over. Just one click and you're done. It's so simple.

Available now for Intel-based Macs running OS X 10.5 and greater - in 32-bit and 64-bit versions.

I'm bugging Hai Hwee to do a MySQL equivalent. Now with the MySQL installer for OS X from the MySQL site, it's always a pain to upgrade to the latest version of MySQL because you have to move your data over yourself. So most of the time, I'd just leave things alone and never upgrade. So if she can just find the time to do this, too, we will have a pretty sleek development platform on our Macs.
