Thanks.

Attached is a patch against cvs tip as of 8:30 PM PST or so. Turned out
that even after fixing the failed hunks, there was a new spot in
bufmgr.c which needed to be fixed (related to temp relations;
RelationUpdateNumberOfBlocks). But thankfully the regression test code
caught it :-)

Bruce Momjian 1991fe74e1 This fixes some text as well as enforces the use of "drop table cascade"
since we moved from an implicate to explicate implementation.

Bruce Momjian 4f1ac055f1 Well, that certainly appeared to be very straight forward. pg.py and
syscat.py scripts were both modified.  pg.py uses it to cache a list of
pks (which is seemingly does for every db connection) and various
attributes.  syscat uses it to walk the list of system tables and
queries the various attributes from these tables.

In both cases, it seemingly makes sense to apply what you've requested.

Bruce Momjian 147aa84c1a http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2002-06/msg00086.php and never
saw a fix offered up.  Since I'm gearing up to use Postgres and Python
soon, I figured I'd have a hand at trying to get this sucker addressed.
Apologies if this has already been plugged.  I looked in the archives
and never saw a response.

At any rate, I must admit I don't think I fully understand the
implications of some of the changes I made even though they appear to be
straight forward.  We all know the devil is in the details.  Anyone more
knowledgeable is requested to review my changes. :(

I also updated the advanced.py script in a somewhat nonsensical fashion
to make use of an int8 field in an effort to test this change.  It seems
to run okay, however, this is by no means an all exhaustive test.  So,
it's possible that a bumpy road may lay ahead for some.  On the other
hand...overflows (hopefully) previously lurked (long -> int conversion).

Chapter 1. libpq - C Library
1.3. Command Execution Functions
1.3.3. Escaping binary strings for inclusion in SQL queries

I found the line
"The result string length does not include the terminating zero byte of the result."
is not right.
The result string length does indeed include the terminating zero byte.

Okay, I've attached an updated patch with more information on

Bruce Momjian 66eb8df6a4 The attached patch changes most of the usages of sprintf() to
snprintf() in contrib/. I didn't touch the places where pointer
arithmatic was being used, or other areas where the fix wasn't
trivial. I would think that few, if any, of the usages of sprintf()
were actually exploitable, but it's probably better to be paranoid...

Bruce Momjian 7f4981f4af I'm giving a try at some TODO items. Currently it's the turn of the
PGPASSWORDFILE environment variable.  I have modified libpq to make use
of this variable.  I present the first cut here.

Currently the format for the file should be

host:port:database:user:password

Bruce Momjian 46aaa5dda3 Appears there is a problem finding the opclass when indexing a domain.
CREATE DOMAIN newint as int4;
CREATE TABLE tab (col newint unique);
ERROR:  data type newint has no default operator class for access method
"btree"
        You must specify an operator class for the index or define a
        default operator class for the data type


Specifically, GetDefaultOpClass() finds 0 exact matches and 3 binary
compatible matches.  Fetching getBaseType() of the attribute fixes the
problem for domains (see attachment).

Bruce Momjian 45e2544584 As discussed on several occasions previously, the new anonymous
composite type capability makes it possible to create a system view
based on a table function in a way that is hopefully palatable to
everyone. The attached patch takes advantage of this, moving
show_all_settings() from contrib/tablefunc into the backend (renamed
all_settings(). It is defined as a builtin returning type RECORD. During
initdb a system view is created to expose the same information presently
available through SHOW ALL. For example:

test=# select * from pg_settings where name like '%debug%';
          name          | setting
-----------------------+---------
  debug_assertions      | on
  debug_pretty_print    | off
  debug_print_parse     | off
  debug_print_plan      | off
  debug_print_query     | off
  debug_print_rewritten | off
  wal_debug             | 0
(7 rows)


Additionally during initdb two rules are created which make it possible
to change settings by updating the system view -- a "virtual table" as
Tom put it. Here's an example:

Barry Lind b3dd55c651 Added support for JDBC3. The driver will now build under JDBC3 (i.e. Java 1.4).
This concludes my changes that restructured the code to support JDBC3.
The jdbc unit tests were also resturctured to allow different tests between
jdbc2 and jdbc3, although currently make check (aka ant test) for JDBC3 just
runs the JDBC2 tests.  Of special note the largeobject/PGblob and PGclob
classes have been moved under the jdbc2/jdbc3 specific directories as they
now differ by jdbc version.  Also note that this checkin removes the
PostgresqlDataSource and files in the xa directory.  A recent checkin has
added new datasource support that replaces the functionality provided by these
classes.

Bruce Momjian dec918479f I guess I'd vote for changing the code to be
sys = malloc(strlen(editorName) + strlen(fname) + 10 + 1);
        if (!sys)
                return false;
        sprintf(sys, "exec '%s' '%s'", editorName, fname);

(note the added quotes to provide a little protection against spaces
and such).  Then it's perfectly obvious what the calculation is doing.
I don't care about wasting 20-some bytes, but confusing readers of the
code is worth avoiding.

but a perfectly valid database state.  Per recent pghackers discussion.
