If it works on all DBs this will be sweeeeeets.

that's a good feature to have :)

As a note, we have had many people asking for this in IRC.

@daylerees Well, get it pulled then! ;)

@cviebrock I have no control over this one mate :) I'm sure T will get round to it soon enough.

Tested this on PostgreSQL, was not working correctly.

schema.php, line 57 "$table->rename($name);" should be changed to "$table->rename($rename);"

After this fix it does work on PostgreSQL (9.1.3)

I would also suggest using $new_name in stead of $rename

Good luck on this pull!

Has anyone confirmed this works on SQLServer yet?

I will setup a VM to test this soon so we can get it in the core asap.

I really look forward to seeing this included in an upcoming version! Thanks for the work cviebrock, Vespakoen, and daylerees.

this will be a cool feature to have. i'm also looking forward to this feature in an upcoming version.

This is exactly what I was looking for! Noticed it doesn't carry over the prefix on the rename though.

Talking about the prefix(s) set in .../application/config/database.php

Possible solution, working on mySQL:

return 'RENAME TABLE '.$this->wrap($table).' TO '.Grammar::wrap_table($command->name);
