hum, now I looked at those catalogs, I'm nearly sure there is no id in
pg_database that would allow me to select all the tables ( class ) that
belong to a particular database.

Whereas it's possible to find all the fields in a table ).

This seems to me impossible !

It's necessary cause I want to display in a treeview ( GtkCtree ) all the
the tables in a particular database, and for each table, all the fields in
this table ).

I will have to maintain myself a table containing a record for each table
created in a database by my ( future ) application.

can someone tell me this is the only solution ?
