backend lexer against psql's.

< * Add GUC variable to prevent waiting on locks

Bruce Momjian af3b182a57 Here is a patch that implements setitimer() on win32. With this patch
applied, deadlock detection and statement_timeout now works.

The file timer.c goes into src/backend/port/win32/.

The patch also removes two lines of "printf debugging" accidentally left
in pqsignal.h, in the console control handler.

invalid input to the oid type. Also, remove some long-unused code
from adt/numutils.c

Neil Conway afcc6fbb60 Remove a caveat from the "backup" documentation: pg_dump now does a
better job of handling dependencies between database objects.

Tom Lane d46b1f904e Minor editorializing on cost-based vacuum description. 2004-02-17 07:36:47 +00:00
Neil Conway ee33fe889e Significant improvements to the documentation for the new cost-based
vacuum delay feature, including updating the docs for Tom's recent
improvements. There is still more work to be done here: for example,
adding some more information on the practical use of cost-based
vacuum delay to the "maintenance" section would probably be a good
idea.

Bruce Momjian c53611e3e7 This patch brings up to date what I did last year (now unfortunately
bitrotted) to allow the logging of the end of a session, enabled by
the config setting "log_disconnections".

Bruce Momjian 1f17316a3d Here is an updated version of the win32 readdir patch.
1) Now puts in exactly the same change as the current-cvs mingw code
does. (see
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/mingw/runtime/mingwex/dirent.c?r1=
1.3&r2=1.4, second part of the patch).

2) Updates both xlog.c and slru.c in backend/access/transam/

3) Also updates pg_resetxlog, which also uses readdir() and checks the
errno value after the loop.

Bruce Momjian ec6feaaed4 Under Win32, stat() returns an st_ino field, but it has no meaning (on
Win2K, and possibly all Win32 variants, it is always 0). This causes a
number of problems in the dfmgr.c logic, which basically all revolve
around the fact that *any* two files will appear to have the same inode.

Bruce Momjian 51b363ec24 Please apply this patch to contrib/dbmirror
In incorperates changes from myself and a number of contributors.

This update to dbmirror provides:

-replication of sequence operations via setval/nextval
-DBMirror.pl support for logging to syslog
-changed the names of the tables to dbmirror_*  (no quotes required)
-Support for writitng SQL statements to files instead of directly to
 a slave database
-More options for DBMirror.pl in the config files.

Neil Conway 6dfb2b2517 Minor SGML markup improvements. 2004-02-17 02:53:03 +00:00
Tom Lane a536ed53bc Make use of statistics on index expressions. There are still some
corner cases that could stand improvement, but it does all the basic
stuff.  A byproduct is that the selectivity routines are no longer
constrained to working on simple Vars; we might in future be able to
improve the behavior for subexpressions that don't match indexes.

Bruce Momjian d372bba02d Change may -> might, and remove an extra tab. 2004-02-16 23:07:57 +00:00
Michael Meskes f464ad0bfd - Cleaned up parser a little bit. It does not make sense to allow a
typename to be typedef'ed that cannot be parsed as variable type.
- Allowed some SQL keywords to be used as C variable names.

Tom Lane f0c9397f80 First steps towards statistics on expressional (nee functional) indexes.
This commit teaches ANALYZE to store such stats in pg_statistic, but
nothing is done yet about teaching the planner to use 'em.
Also, repair longstanding oversight in separate ANALYZE command: it
updated the pg_class.relpages and reltuples counts for the table proper,
but not for indexes.

Neil Conway effd0dea7e Minor documentation tweak. 2004-02-15 06:27:37 +00:00
Tom Lane a9e08392dd Create crosstype comparison operators for date vs. timestamp and date
vs. timestamptz.  This allows use of indexes for expressions like
  datecol >= date 'today' - interval '1 month'
which were formerly not indexable without casting the righthand side
down from timestamp to date.

Tom Lane 2e5fe483a3 Repair optimization bug I introduced in a moment of brain fade back in
Nov 2002: when constant-expression simplification removes all the
aggregate function calls from a query, that doesn't mean we can act as
though there never were any aggregates.  Per bug report from Gabor Szucs.

Tom Lane 8787bc8ef3 After further thought about support for gathering stats on functional
indexes, it seems like we ought to put another layer of indirection
between the compute_stats functions and the actual data storage.  This
would allow us to compute the values on-the-fly, for example.

someone asked me about the FK deadlock fix, mentioned in the 7.3.3
release notes as 3rd change:

Actually, that fix was available with 7.4, not 7.3. Don't know if we can
retroactively change the release-notes though.
