All information we need is not available on Windows, but the number of
assumptions are at least fewer this way than before.
Based on suggestions from James William Pye.
and allow using config.pl to override the defaults. config.pl is removed from
the repository, so changes there will no longer show up when doing diff, and
will not prevent switching branches and such things.
config.pl would normally be used to override single values, but if an
old-style config.pl is read, it will override the entire default configuration,
making it backwards compatible.
symbols both using __declspec(dllexport) (via the PGDLLIMPORT macro) and using
full-dll-export. This works without warning on Win32, but not on Win64.
In passing, fix the fact that the framework could never deal with more than
one disbled linker warning - because MSVC wants commas between linker warnings,
and semicolons between compiler warnings...
pg_attribute, by having genbki.pl derive the information from the various
catalog header files. This greatly simplifies modification of the
"bootstrapped" catalogs.
This patch finally kills genbki.sh and Gen_fmgrtab.sh; we now rely entirely on
Perl scripts for those build steps. To avoid creating a Perl build dependency
where there was not one before, the output files generated by these scripts
are now treated as distprep targets, ie, they will be built and shipped in
tarballs. But you will need a reasonably modern Perl (probably at least
5.6) if you want to build from a CVS pull.
The changes to the MSVC build process are untested, and may well break ---
we'll soon find out from the buildfarm.

directly. This was a lot of trouble, but should be worth it in terms of
not having to keep the plpgsql lexer in step with core anymore. In addition
the handling of keywords is significantly better-structured, allowing us to
de-reserve a number of words that plpgsql formerly treated as reserved.
hand-assigned rowtype OIDs, even when they are not "bootstrapped" catalogs
that have handmade type rows in pg_type.h. Give pg_database such an OID.
Restore the availability of C macros for the rowtype OIDs of the bootstrapped
catalogs. (These macros are now in the individual catalogs' .h files,
though, not in pg_type.h.)
This commit doesn't do anything especially useful by itself, but it's
necessary infrastructure for reverting some ill-considered changes in
relcache.c.
Test coverage support now covers the entire source tree, including
contrib, instead of just src/backend. In a related but independent
development, the commands make coverage and make coverage-html can be run
in any directory.
This turned out to be much easier than feared. Besides a few ad hoc fixes
to pass the make target down the tree, change all affected makefiles to
list their directories in the SUBDIRS variable, changed from variants like
DIRS and WANTED_DIRS. MSVC build fix was attempted as well.
and extend configure to test for it properly instead of hard-wiring
an assumption that everybody but Windows has the rand48 functions.
(We do cheat to the extent of assuming that probing for erand48 will do
for the entire rand48 family.)
erand48() is unused as of this commit, but a followon patch will cause
GEQO to depend on it.

This alters various incidental uses of C++ key words to use other similar
identifiers, so that a C++ compiler won't choke outright. You still
(probably) need extern "C" { }; around the inclusion of backend headers.
based on a patch by Kurt Harriman <harriman@acm.org>
Also add a script cpluspluscheck to check for C++ compatibility in the
future. As of right now, this passes without error for me.
keyword lists in gram.y and kwlist.h. It checks that all lists are in
alphabetical order, and that all keywords present in gram.y are listed
in kwlist.h in the right category, and that all keywords in kwlist.h are
also in gram.y. What's still missing is to check that all keywords
defined with "%token <keyword>" in gram.y are present in one of the
keyword lists in gram.y.
Also, if linked against other versions than the default MSVCRT library
(for example the MSVC build which links against MSVCRT80), also update
the cache in the default MSVCRT at the same time.
This should fix the issues with setting LC_MESSAGES on the MSVC build.
Original patch from Hiroshi Inoue and Hiroshi Saito, much rewritten
by me.
the * character at the beginning of a pattern, and it does not match
subdomains.
Since this means we no longer need fnmatch, remove the imported implementation
from port, along with the autoconf check for it.
the postgres.bki file during build, because we want that file to be entirely
platform- and configuration-independent; else it can't safely be put into
/usr/share on multiarch machines. We can do the substitution during initdb,
instead. FLOAT4PASSBYVAL and FLOAT8PASSBYVAL are new breakage as of 8.4,
while the NAMEDATALEN hazard has been there all along but I guess no one
tripped over it. Noticed while trying to build "universal" OS X binaries.
in pg_proc. Also make it not emit duplicate extern declarations, and make it
a bit more bulletproof in some other small ways. Likewise fix the equally
hard-wired, and utterly undocumented, knowledge in the MSVC build scripts.
For testing purposes and perhaps other uses in future, pull out that portion
of the MSVC scripts into a standalone perl script equivalent to
Gen_fmgrtab.sh, and make it generate actually identical output, rather than
just more-or-less-the-same output.
Motivated by looking at Pavel's variadic function patch. Whether or not
that gets accepted, we can be sure that pg_proc's column set will change
again in the future; it's time to not have to deal with this gotcha.
"make all", and then reference them there during the actual tests. This
makes the handling of these files more parallel to that of regress.so,
and in particular simplifies use of the regression tests outside the
original build tree. The PGDG and Red Hat RPMs have been doing this via
patches for a very long time. Inclusion of the change in core was requested
by Jørgen Austvik of Sun, and I can't see any reason not to.
I attempted to fix the MSVC scripts for this too, but they may need
further tweaking ...
any hardcoding of those options. Along the way, reorder the expression used to
calculate RELSEG_SIZE to make it slightly clearer. For now wal_segsize is only
allowed to have a value of 1 on Windows - we can relax that when we get full
large file support in the backend.
where Datum is 8 bytes wide. Since this will break old-style C functions
(those still using version 0 calling convention) that have arguments or
results of these types, provide a configure option to disable it and retain
the old pass-by-reference behavior. Likewise, provide a configure option
to disable the recently-committed float4 pass-by-value change.

data structures and backend internal APIs. This solves problems we've seen
recently with inconsistent layout of pg_control between machines that have
32-bit time_t and those that have already migrated to 64-bit time_t. Also,
we can get out from under the problem that Windows' Unix-API emulation is not
consistent about the width of time_t.
There are a few remaining places where local time_t variables are used to hold
the current or recent result of time(NULL). I didn't bother changing these
since they do not affect any cross-module APIs and surely all platforms will
have 64-bit time_t before overflow becomes an actual risk. time_t should
be avoided for anything visible to extension modules, however.
in .bat simply did not work, and it called them in the wrong order,
some several times, and some not at all. So this unrolls all subroutine
calls.
This should fix the issues with clean deleting the wrong files reported
by Dave Page.
While at it, add the "clean dist" option to act like "make distclean",
and no longer remove the flex/bison output files by default. This shuold
fix the problem reported by Pavel Golub in bug #3909.
*just* libpq ... its not perfect, as it pulls in more files then is
necessarily required to build, but as it is, it requires one simple patch
to configure.in in order to work ...
Tested on FreeBSD ... patch for configure.in hasn't been applied, but

categories, as per discussion. asciiword (formerly lword) is still
ASCII-letters-only, and numword (formerly word) is still the most general
mixed-alpha-and-digits case. But word (formerly nlword) is now
any-group-of-letters-with-at-least-one-non-ASCII, rather than all-non-ASCII as
before. This is no worse than before for parsing mixed Russian/English text,
which seems to have been the design center for the original coding; and it
should simplify matters for parsing most European languages. In particular
it will not be necessary for any language to accept strings containing digits
as being regular "words". The hyphenated-word categories are adjusted
similarly.
duplicative -DFRONTEND flags from many Makefiles. We still need Makefile
control of the symbol in a few places that compile frontend-or-backend
src/port/ files, but it's a lot cleaner than before.

There's not much point in prettifying machine-generated code, and it
seems best to keep these files exactly like upstream anyway. Also add
some notes about why various files are excluded.
Oleg Bartunov and Teodor Sigaev, but I did a lot of editorializing,
so anything that's broken is probably my fault.
Documentation is nonexistent as yet, but let's land the patch so we can
get some portability testing done.

and views (but not system catalogs, nor sequences or toast tables). Get rid
of the hardwired convention that a type's array type is named exactly "_type",
instead using a new column pg_type.typarray to provide the linkage. (It still
will be named "_type", though, except in odd corner cases such as
maximum-length type names.)
Along the way, make tracking of owner and schema dependencies for types more
uniform: a type directly created by the user has these dependencies, while a
table rowtype or auto-generated array type does not have them, but depends on
its parent object instead.

for local symbols, that shouldn't be exported. This patch excludes them,
cutting down about 10,000 exported symbols and decreasing the binary size
by 20%.
ecpglib supports it.
Change configure (patch from Bruce) and msvc build system to no longer require
pthreads on win32, since all parts of postgresql can be thread-safe using the
native platform functions.

Per suggestion from Andrew Dunstan.
now complete). Update for the MSVC6/Borland support now being only libpq.
Move most of the information about full MSVC build from README file into
documentation.
For win32 in general, this makes it possible to run the regression tests
as an admin user by using the same restricted token method that's used
by pg_ctl and initdb.
For vc++, it adds building of pg_regress.exe, adds a resultmap, and
fixes how it runs the install.

where possible, and fix some sites that apparently thought that fgets()
will overwrite the buffer by one byte.
Also add some strlcpy() to eliminate some weird memory handling.
generated solution files for what to install, instead of blindly copying
everything as it previously did. With the previous quick-n-dirty
version, it would copy old DLLs if you reconfigured in a way that didn't
include subprojects like a PL for example.

Standard English uses "may", "can", and "might" in different ways:
may - permission, "You may borrow my rake."
can - ability, "I can lift that log."
might - possibility, "It might rain today."
Unfortunately, in conversational English, their use is often mixed, as
in, "You may use this variable to do X", when in fact, "can" is a better
choice. Similarly, "It may crash" is better stated, "It might crash".
suffix, to distinguish them from doubles. Make some function declarations
and definitions use the "const" qualifier for arguments consistently.
Ignore warning 4102 ("unreferenced label"), because such warnings
are always emitted by bison-generated code. Patch from Magnus Hagander.
* After Markos patch, now builds pgcrypto without zlib again
* Updates README with xml info
* xml requires xslt and iconv
* disable unnecessary warning about __cdecl()
* Add a buildenv.bat called from all other bat files to set up things
like PATH for flex/bison. (Can't just set it before calling, doesn't
always work when building from the GUI)
1) gendef works from inside visual studio - use a tempfile instead of
redirection, because for some reason you can't redirect dumpbin from
inside (patch from Joachim Wieland)
2) gendef must process only *.obj, or you get weird errors in some build
scenarios when it tries to process a logfile

before, and really needed to get reasonable information about what
happens (non-verbose just says "starting build of foo" and "done
building foo", more or less).

cases. Operator classes now exist within "operator families". While most
families are equivalent to a single class, related classes can be grouped
into one family to represent the fact that they are semantically compatible.
Cross-type operators are now naturally adjunct parts of a family, without
having to wedge them into a particular opclass as we had done originally.
This commit restructures the catalogs and cleans up enough of the fallout so
that everything still works at least as well as before, but most of the work
needed to actually improve the planner's behavior will come later. Also,
there are not yet CREATE/DROP/ALTER OPERATOR FAMILY commands; the only way
to create a new family right now is to allow CREATE OPERATOR CLASS to make
one by default. I owe some more documentation work, too. But that can all
be done in smaller pieces once this infrastructure is in place.
Typo in the changes to plperl - uses wrong dir, and had a missing slash.
Also fixes error checking for xsubpp - it was broken in a way that hid
the problem above when run more than once (which is the normal case when
developing).
* New versions of OpenSSL come with proper debug versions, and use
suffixed names on the LIBs for that. Adapts library handling to deal
with that.
* Fixes error where it incorrectly enabled Kerberos based on NLS

1) Make vcbuild actually build the pgevent dll.
2) Change the pgevent DLL file so it doens't specify ordinal for the
functions. You're not supposed to do that. You're actually supposed to
declare them as PRIVATE as well, but mingw doesn't support that. VC++
will throw a warning and not an error though, so we can live with it.
