Ubuntu 11.10
postgresql 9.1
pgadmin 1.14.1
compiled using gcc/g++, no additinional flags, only ./configure, make,
make install
rev: REL-1_14_1
show system objects - not enabled

example of SQL pane:

CREATE TABLE projects
(
id serial NOT NULL,
name text NOT NULL,
handler text,
CONSTRAINT projects_pkey PRIMARY KEY (id )
)
WITH (
OIDS=FALSE
);
ALTER TABLE projects
OWNER TO smsgtwlive;

-- Trigger: RI_ConstraintTrigger_4601055 on projects

-- DROP TRIGGER "RI_ConstraintTrigger_4601055" ON projects;

CREATE CONSTRAINT TRIGGER "RI_ConstraintTrigger_4601055"
AFTER DELETE
ON projects
FOR EACH ROW
EXECUTE PROCEDURE "RI_FKey_restrict_del"();

-- Trigger: RI_ConstraintTrigger_4601056 on projects

-- DROP TRIGGER "RI_ConstraintTrigger_4601056" ON projects;

CREATE CONSTRAINT TRIGGER "RI_ConstraintTrigger_4601056"
AFTER UPDATE
ON projects
FOR EACH ROW
EXECUTE PROCEDURE "RI_FKey_restrict_upd"();
