* adds a few missing words to some commands (like adding GIN as a valid
index type or OWNED BY for ALTER SEQUENCE,...)
* support for ALTER TABLE foo ENABLE/DISABLE REPLICA TRIGGER/RULE
* autocomplete CREATE DATABASE foo TEMPLATE (mostly done to prevent
conflicts with the TEMPLATE keyword for text search)
* support for ALTER/CREATE/DROP TEXT SEARCH as well as COMMENT ON TEXT
SEARCH and the corresponding psql backslash commands.
This proved a little more difficult than expected due to the fact that
words_after_create[] is used for two purposes - one is to provide a list
of words that follow immediatly after CREATE (or DROP) and the other
purpose is to use it for autocompleting anywhere in the statement if the
word in that struct is found with a query.
Since TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION|DICTIONARY|TEMPLATE|PARSER results in 3
words instead of one (as all the other words in that list are) I added a
flag to the struct to tell create_command_generator() to skip that entry
for autocompleting immediatly after CREATE which feels like a dirty
hack (but that holds true for a lot of code in tab-complete.c).

Sequences and views could previously be renamed using ALTER TABLE, but
this was a repeated source of confusion for users. Update the docs,
and psql tab completion. Patch from David Fetter; various minor fixes
by myself.
we can complete "TABLE". The previous coding only looked for "CREATE TEMP".
Note that I didn't add TEMPORARY to the list of suggested completions
after we've seen "CREATE", since TEMP is equivalent and more concise. But
if the user has already manually typed TEMPORARY, we may as well
complete TABLE for them.
RESET SESSION, RESET PLANS, and RESET TEMP are now DISCARD ALL,
DISCARD PLANS, and DISCARD TEMP, respectively. This is to avoid
confusion with the pre-existing RESET variants: the DISCARD
commands are not actually similar to RESET. Patch from Marko
Kreen, with some minor editorialization.
A DBA is allowed to create a language in his database if it's marked
"tmpldbacreate" in pg_pltemplate. The factory default is that this is set
for all standard trusted languages, but of course a superuser may adjust
the settings. In service of this, add the long-foreseen owner column to
pg_language; renaming, dropping, and altering owner of a PL now follow
normal ownership rules instead of being superuser-only.

DROP OWNED BY is actually a bit kludgy, but it seems better to do it this way
rather than duplicating the words_after_create list just to add a single

comments on cluster global objects like databases, tablespaces, and
roles.
It touches a lot of places, but not much in the way of big changes. The
only design decision I made was to duplicate the query and manipulation
functions rather than to try and have them handle both shared and local
comments. I believe this is simpler for the code and not an issue for
callers because they know what type of object they are dealing with.
This has resulted in a shobj_description function analagous to
obj_description and backend functions [Create/Delete]SharedComments
mirroring the existing [Create/Delete]Comments functions.

Currently, while \e saves a single statement as one entry, interactive

would be saved like \e does.

the return expression was complex.

about adding an errant "TO" when we already have a TO. Since
TO cannot be a valid column name (we must quote it), we can
simply ignore the tab-completion if the previous word
was a "TO".

* Made DELETE into "DELETE FROM"
* Moved ANALZYE to the end of the list to ease EXPLAIN / VACUUM
conflicts
* Removed the ANALYZE xx semicolon completion: we don't do that anywhere
else
* Add DECLARE support
* Add parens for DROP AGGREGATE
* Add "CASCADE | RESTRICT" for DROP xx
* Make EXPLAIN <tab> a lot smarter
* GROUP "BY" and ORDER "BY"
* "ISOLATION" becomes "ISOLATION LEVEL"
* Fix error in which REVOKE xx ON yy was receiving "TO", now gets "FROM"
* Add GRANT/REVOKE xx ON yy TO/FROM choices: usernames, GROUP, PUBLIC
* PREPARE xx <tab> AS "SELECT | INSERT | UPDATE | DELETE"
* Add = at end of UPDATE xx SET yy
* Beef up VACUUM stuff

in UPDATE. We also now issue a NOTICE if a query has _any_ implicit
range table entries -- in the past, we would only warn about implicit
RTEs in SELECTs with at least one explicit RTE.
As a result of the warning change, 25 of the regression tests had to
be updated. I also took the opportunity to remove some bogus whitespace
differences between some of the float4 and float8 variants. I believe
I have correctly updated all the platform-specific variants, but let
me know if that's not the case.

syntax).
clause implicitly whenever one is not given explicitly. Remove concept
of a schema having an associated tablespace, and simplify the rules for
selecting a default tablespace for a table or index. It's now just
(a) explicit TABLESPACE clause; (b) default_tablespace if that's not an
empty string; (c) database's default. This will allow pg_dump to use
SET commands instead of tablespace clauses to determine object locations
(but I didn't actually make it do so). All per recent discussions.
address all of the items in the todo list and adds some new
things as well. Specifically:
* Add support for ALTER SEQUENCE ...
* Add "RENAME TO" for ALTER TRIGGER xx ON yy
* Pick proper table for ALTER TRIGGER xx ON ...
* Support for ALTER USER xxx ...
* Fix ALTER GROUP xxx DROP ...
* Fix ALTER DOMAIN xxx DROP ...
* Remove "OWNER TO" from ALTER DOMAIN xx DROP ...
* Fix ALTER DOMAIN xx SET DEFAULT ..
* Prevent ALTER INDEX xxx SET TABLESPACE from using "TO"
* Support for ALTER LANGUAGE xxx (RENAME TO)
* More support for ALTER TABLE xxx ALTER COLUMN xxx ...
* More support for COPY

to/in the psql-tabcomplete code. This diff includes the still missing
tab-complete support for TABLESPACE I already sent earlier. New in this
version of the patch is a small adaption of the tab-complete code to
support the adjusted SAVEPOINT-Syntax commited by Tom, as well as
completion of the only half working (and I think only by accident)
tabcomplete-suppport for "BEGIN [ TRANSACTION | WORK ]".
below is a complete list of the things I have changed with this patch:
*) add tablespace support for CREATE/DROP/ALTER and \db
*) sync the list of possible commands following ALTER with the docs (by
adding
AGGREGATE,CONVERSATION,DOMAIN,FUNCTION,LANGUAGE,OPERATOR,SEQUENCE,TABLESPACE
and TYPE)
*) provide a list of valid users after "OWNER TO"
*) tab-complete support for ALTER (AGGREGATE|CONVERSION|FUNCTION)
*) basic tab-complete support for ALTER DOMAIN
*) provide a list of suitable indexes following ALTER TABLE <sth>
CLUSTER ON(?)
*) add "CLUSTER ON" and "SET" to the ALTER TABLE <sth> - tab-complete
list(fixes incorrect/wrong tab-complete with ALTER TABLE <sth> SET
+<TAB> too)
*) provide a list of possible indexes following ALTER TABLE <sth> CLUSTER ON
*) provide list of possible commands(WITHOUT CLUSTER,WITHOUT OIDS,
TABLESPACE) following ALTER TABLE <sth> SET
*) sync "COMMENT ON" with docs by adding "CAST","CONVERSION","FUNCTION"
*) add ABSOLUT to the list of possible commands after FETCH
*) "END" was missing from the sql-commands overview (though it had
completion support!) - i know it's depreciated but we have ABORT and
others still in ...
*) fixes small buglet with ALTER (TRIGGER|CLUSTER) ON autocomplete
(CLUSTER ON +<TAB> would produce CLUSTER ON ON - same for TRIGGER ON)
*) adapt to new SAVEPOINT syntax
*) fix incomplete Support for BEGIN [ TRANSACTION | WORK ]

password/group files. Also allow read-only subtransactions of a read-write

parts of Alvaro's recent mop-up patch, plus further work on large objects
to minimize use of the TopTransactionResourceOwner.

Fix a few loose ends in the nested-transactions stuff.
It was necessary to touch in grammar and create a new node to make home
to the new syntax. The command is also supported in E
CPG. Doc updates are attached too. Only superusers can change the owner
of the database. New owners don't need any aditional
privileges.

find_my_exec/find_other_exec(). Remove passing of progname to these
functions as they can find that out from argv[0], which they already
have.
Make get_progname return const char *, and update all progname variables
to be const char *.
conversion of basic ASCII letters. Remove all uses of strcasecmp and
strncasecmp in favor of new functions pg_strcasecmp and pg_strncasecmp;
remove most but not all direct uses of toupper and tolower in favor of
pg_toupper and pg_tolower. These functions use the same notions of
case folding already developed for identifier case conversion. I left
the straight locale-based folding in place for situations where we are
just manipulating user data and not trying to match it to built-in
strings --- for example, the SQL upper() function is still locale
dependent. Perhaps this will prove not to be what's wanted, but at
the moment we can initdb and pass regression tests in Turkish locale.

stack depth, as per my proposal of 30-Dec. This gives us a fairly
bulletproof defense against crashing due to runaway recursive functions.

little more sane. Some parts of the code was using a static function
xmalloc() that did safe memory allocation (where "safe" means "bail
out on OOM"), but most of it was just invoking calloc() or malloc()
directly. Now almost everything invokes xmalloc() or xcalloc().
proposal for eventually deprecating OIDs on user tables that I posted

offered for completion only when the input-so-far is at least 'pg_'.
This seems to be the best compromise behavior emerging from yesterday's
discussion. While at it, refactor code to eliminate repetitive use of
nearly identical queries, which was exceedingly tedious to maintain.
Also const-ify code more thoroughly in hopes of moving constant data into
text segment, and remove unnecessary length limit on queries.
"schema." has been typed. This allows readline to complete subsequent
characters immediately if all relations in the target schema start with
the same prefix. This actually worked before, but I unintentionally
broke it a few days ago.
Also, make completion schema-aware for GRANT, REVOKE, VACUUM.
up by quotes or backslashes in words that are being matched to database
names (per gripe from Ian Barwick, though I didn't use his patch).
Also fix possible memory leakage if _complete_with_query isn't run to
completion (not clear if that can happen or not, but be safe).
sequence every time it's called is bogus --- it interferes with user
control over the seed, and actually decreases randomness overall
(because a seed based on time(NULL) is pretty predictable). If you really
want a reproducible result from geqo, do 'set seed = 0' before planning
a query.
heuristic determination of day vs month in date/time input. Add the
ability to specify that input is interpreted as yy-mm-dd order (which
formerly worked, but only for yy greater than 31). DateStyle's input
component now has the preferred spellings DMY, MDY, or YMD; the older
keywords European and US are now aliases for the first two of these.

only remnant of this failed experiment is that the server will take
SET AUTOCOMMIT TO ON. Still TODO: provide some client-side autocommit
logic in libpq.
The first cleans up a couple of minor errors and ommissions
and adds tab completion support to more slash commands, e.g.
\dv.
The second is an attempt to add tab completion for schemas
and fully qualified relation names (e.g. public.mytable ).
I think this covers the TODO-item:
"Allow psql to do table completion for SELECT * FROM schema_part and table
completion for SELECT * FROM schema_name."
This happens via union selects querying:
- relation_name in current search path;
- schema_name;
- schema.relation_name
matching the current input string.
E.g:
SELECT p[TAB]
will produce a list of all appropriate relation names in the current search
path which begin with 'p', and also all schema names which begin with 'p';
\d pub[TAB]
will produce any relation names in the current search path and also
any schema names beginning with 'pub';
\d public.[TAB]
will produce a list of all relations in the schema 'public';
\d public.my[TAB]
produces all relation names beginning with 'my' in schema 'public'.
It seems to work for me; comments, suggestions, particularly regarding
the coding and queries, are very welcome.
Note that tables, indexes, views and sequences relations in the
'pg_catalog' namespace are excluded even though they are in
the current search path. I found not doing this produced annoying behaviour
when expanding names beginning with 'p'. People who work with system
tables a lot may not like this though; I can look for another solution
if necessary.

Along the way, reduce deadlock_timeout from PGC_POSTMASTER to PGC_SIGHUP

necessarily following the JOIN syntax to develop the query plan. The old
behavior is still available by setting GUC variable JOIN_COLLAPSE_LIMIT
to 1. Also create a GUC variable FROM_COLLAPSE_LIMIT to control the
similar decision about when to collapse sub-SELECT lists into their parent
lists. (This behavior existed already, but the limit was always
GEQO_THRESHOLD/2; now it's separately adjustable.)
