[Gnumed-devel] schema verification

[Karsten Hilbert]

Maybe a morsel of information is in order regarding schema
verification:

GNUmed dumps the table structure (table names, column names,
column data types), creates an md5 hash thereof, and
compares the result to known hashes.

In case someone would like to check one database schema
against another (say, a "known good" one such as the public
DB) one would run

        select gm.concat_table_structure();

in both databases and compare the output (by, say, piping
the output into text files and diffing).
