was a 2000 character buffer allocated for results, and the files
you refer to produce a 2765 byte column called formsource. This
should not have worked with any version of libpgtcl.
Nevertheless, the limit is an artificial one, since there is no
need to use this intermediate buffer where it is being used and
abused.

a dumpall. This has been happening when a second \connect is
encountered.
The faulty code was in fe-connect.c, where the memory for the user
password was freed, but the pointer itself was not set to NULL.
Later, the memory was reused and the password appeared not to be
empty, so that an attempt was made to reference it.

1) DatabaseMetaData.getPrimaryKeys() would fail saying that there
is no
table t.
2) PreparedStatement.getObject() was missing some break statements,
which
was causing updates not to work with JBuilder (supplied by Aaron
Dunlop).

Solution: --------- Add this to the libpq and libpq++ Makefiles
to build shared libs:

The following patch is to src/interfaces/libpq of postgresql-6.3.
The purpose of the patch is to make the initialization of
const char *pgresStatus[] match the ExecStatusType enum.
It is my hope that the following "patches" to libpgtcl get included
in the next release.
See the update to the README file to get a full description of the changes.
This version of libpgtcl is completely interpreter-safe, implements the
database connection handle as a channel (no events yet, but will make it
a lot easier to do fileevents on it in the future), and supports the SQL
"copy table to stdout" and "copy table from stdin" commands, with the
I/O being from and to the connection handle. The connection and result
handles are formatted in a way to make access to the tables more efficient.
Ok, this fixes three things:
1. It seems (from tests submitted by two people with JBuilder) that
JBuilder expects a responce from ResultSetMetaData.getPrecision() &
getScale() when used on non numeric types. This patch makes these
methods return 0, instead of throwing an exception.
2. Fixes a small bug where getting the postgresql type name returns null.
3. Fixes a problem with ResultSet.getObject() where getting it's string
value returns null if you case the object as (PGobject), but returns
the value if you case it as it's self.
This patch will...
1. Remove the "-Wall" option from the ecpg/lib and ecpg/preproc Makefile.
2. Remove the addition of $(SRCDIR)/include and-or $(SRCDIR)/backend from
ecpg/lib, ecpg/preproc, libpq and utils Makefiles. Already in CFLAGS...
3. Set MK_NO_LORDER and RANLIB in Makefile.aix to avoid a couple of extra
steps taken care of by the 'ld' command anyways.

Ok. I have decided to use:
#if defined(sun) && if defined(sparc) && !defined(__svr4)
instead of defined(sunos4). interfaces/libpq/libpq-fe.h and
include/c.h have been modified(see included patches).
Another porblems I have found are:
o SunOS lacks strtoul(). to fix this I stole strtoul.c from FreeBSD
and place it under backend/port. necessary modifications have been
also made to backend/port/Makefile.in, include/config.h.in and
configure.in (see included patches).
below is the patch to have views to override the permission
checks for the accessed tables. Now we can do the following:
CREATE VIEW db_user AS SELECT
usename,
usesysid,
usecreatedb,
usetrace,
usecatupd,
'**********'::text as passwd,
valuntil
FROM pg_user;
REVOKE ALL ON pg_user FROM public;
REVOKE ALL ON db_user FROM public;
GRANT SELECT ON db_user TO public;
any other, example program.
I have tracked this down to a call to PQfinish() in ECPGfinish()
that occurs before any connection is established.

Apart from this Makefile hack, all I've done is to make dynamically
loaded code modules fail properly (as was already done for __mips__,
although I think this is too loose: I believe NetBSD for the pmax can
do dynamic linking), and to add test-and-set lock handling. As Bruce
suggested, this is done in a maximally efficient inlined way: I was
not aware that this code was so important, speed-wise.
This patch fixes the following:
* Fixes minor bug found in DatabaseMetaData.getTables() where it doesn't
handle default table types.
* It now reports an error if the client opens a database using
properties, and either the user or password properties are missing. This
should make the recent problem with Servlets easier to find.
* Commented out obsolete property in Driver.getPropertyInfo()
Well this is not really a patch. But I mananged to get Linus' old Postgres95
precompiler to compile and work with PostgreSQL. The next step would be to
collect bug/missing feature reports and to put it into the distribution so
that it is made with the standard make procedure.
Warning! So far it is not tested much and it does not install correctly. But
I was able to create a small binary with it.
[This is a repost - it supercedes the previous one. It fixes the patch so
it doesn't bread aix port, plus there's a file missing out of the
original post because difforig doesn't pick up new files. It's now
attached. peter]
This patch brings the JDBC driver up to the current protocol spec.
Basically, the backend now tells the driver what authentication scheme to
use.
The patch also fixes a performance problem with large objects. In the
buffer manager, each fastpath call was sending multiple Notifications to
the backend (sometimes more data in the form of notifications were being
sent than blob data!).
I haven't had final confirmation from Peter yet, but the attached patch
needs to be applied for the Beta otherwise password and crypt
authentication just won't work.
It puts back the loop in libpq and also fixes a couple of problems with
maintaining compatability with pre-6.3 drivers.
Attached is the patch to fix the warning messages from my code. I also
fixed one which wasn't my code. Apart from the usual warnings about the
bison/yacc generated code I only have one other warning message. This
is in gramm.y around line 2234. I wasn't sure of the fix.
I've also replaced all the calls to free() in gramm.y to calls to
pfree(). Without these I was getting backend crashes with GRANT. This
might already have been fixed.
This has a problem when using any authentication other than trust or
ident.
Anything using libpq will hang, because the client will go into a loop
while connecting. The following patch simply comments out two lines (a do
and a while), removing the loop. Going through the new scheme, I can't see
why this do..while loop is in there.
I've completed the patch to fix the protocol and authentication issues I
was discussing a couple of weeks ago. The particular changes are:
- the protocol has a version number
- network byte order is used throughout
- the pg_hba.conf file is used to specify what method is used to
authenticate a frontend (either password, ident, trust, reject, krb4
or krb5)
- support for multiplexed backends is removed
- appropriate changes to man pages
- the -a switch to many programs to specify an authentication service
no longer has any effect
- the libpq.so version number has changed to 1.1
The new backend still supports the old protocol so old interfaces won't
break.
Hi -- a couple of small items concerning the January 23rd snapshot:
the inclusion of the Kerberos stuff in one Makefile, a "leading tab"
cleanup in another, and a fix for a typo in the configure script.
The attached patches will allow postgreSQL to compile successfully on SCO
UNIXWARE 2.1.x. The patches fix the following problems:
1. Configure did not properly recognize the UNIXWARE system as needing the
univel port. It used the sys4 port.
2. Configure did not properly process the CC flag in the template file.
3. There was no working test and set locking implementation for the native
UNIXWARE compiler.
4. The test and set locking used for Intel X86 that was selected by defining
NEED_I386_TAS_ASM could fail in a multi-processor environment.
5. The makefiles for libpq and libpgtcl did not make a shared library for
the univel port.
OK, here comes a patch, DBD::Pg (and possibly other 3rd party clients)
can connect to unix sockets.
Patch is against current source tree.
Background:
libpq set some policy for client, which it should not
IMHO. It prevent some 3rd party clients to connect with
unix domain sockets etc.
reference to the name of the shared library, instead of dereferencing
the definition from the top of the file.

Rename PG_DATESTYLE to PGDATESTYLE environment variable.
Move environment variable code to a different place so it now works!
Note that regression tests can now run with "setenv PGTZ PST8PDT"
at the frontend rather than requiring the backend to have TZ set.
