51.68. pg_config
The view pg_config describes the
compile-time configuration parameters of the currently installed
version of PostgreSQL. It is intended, for example, to
be used by software packages that want to interface to
PostgreSQL to facilitate finding the required header
files and libraries. It provides the same basic information as the
pg_config PostgreSQL client
application.
By default, the pg_config view can be read
only by superusers.
