Added a new option --extra-install to pg_regress to arrange installing
the respective contrib directory into the temporary installation.
This is currently not yet supported for Windows MSVC builds.
Updated the .gitignore files for contrib modules to ignore the
leftovers of a temp-install check run.
Changed the exit status of "make check" in a pgxs build (which still
does nothing) to 0 from 1.
Added "make check" in contrib to top-level "make check-world".
This warning is new in gcc 4.6 and part of -Wall. This patch cleans
up most of the noise, but there are some still warnings that are
trickier to remove.
It was never terribly consistent to use OR REPLACE (because of the lack of
comparable functionality for data types, operators, etc), and
experimentation shows that it's now positively pernicious in the extension
world. We really want a failure to occur if there are any conflicts, else
it's unclear what the extension-ownership state of the conflicted object
ought to be. Most of the time, CREATE EXTENSION will fail anyway because
of conflicts on other object types, but an extension defining only
functions can succeed, with bad results.
This isn't fully tested as yet, in particular I'm not sure that the
"foo--unpackaged--1.0.sql" scripts are OK. But it's time to get some
buildfarm cycles on it.
sepgsql is not converted to an extension, mainly because it seems to
require a very nonstandard installation process.

This patch replaces Guttman's generalized split method with a simple
sort-by-center-points algorithm. Since the data is only one-dimensional
we don't really need the slow and none-too-stable Guttman method.
This is in part a bug fix, since seg has the same size_alpha versus
size_beta typo that was recently fixed in contrib/cube. It seems
prudent to apply this rather aggressive fix only in HEAD, though.
Back branches will just get the typo fix.

during parsing. Formerly the parser's stack was allocated with malloc
and so wouldn't be reclaimed; this patch makes it use palloc instead,
so that flushing the current context will reclaim the memory. Per

uses of the long-deprecated float32 in contrib/seg; the definitions themselves
are still there, but no longer used. fmgr/README updated to match.
I added a CREATE FUNCTION to account for existing seg_center() code in seg.c
too, and some tests for it and the neighbor functions. At the same time,
remove checks for NULL which are not needed (because the functions are declared
STRICT).
I had to do some adjustments to contrib's btree_gist too. The choices for
representation there are not ideal for changing the underlying types :-(
Original patch by Zoltan Boszormenyi, with some adjustments by me.
"consistent" functions, and remove pg_amop.opreqcheck, as per recent
discussion. The main immediate benefit of this is that we no longer need
8.3's ugly hack of requiring @@@ rather than @@ to test weight-using tsquery
searches on GIN indexes. In future it should be possible to optimize some
other queries better than is done now, by detecting at runtime whether the
index match is exact or not.

Add documentation on modifying *.sql to set the search patch, and

Some of these issues were spotted by Tom today.

* new split algorithm (as proposed in http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-06/msg00254.php)
* possible call pickSplit() for second and below columns
* add spl_(l|r)datum_exists to GIST_SPLITVEC -
pickSplit should check its values to use already defined
spl_(l|r)datum for splitting. pickSplit should set
spl_(l|r)datum_exists to 'false' (if they was 'true') to
signal to caller about using spl_(l|r)datum.
* support for old pickSplit(): not very optimal
but correct split
* remove 'bytes' field from GISTENTRY: in any case size of
value is defined by it's type.
* split GIST_SPLITVEC to two structures: one for using in picksplit
and second - for internal use.
* some code refactoring
* support of subsplit to rtree opclasses
TODO: add support of subsplit to contrib modules
Most of the changes add the mandatory USING clause to DROP OPERATOR
CLASS statements. DROP TYPE is now DROP TYPE CASCADE; without
CASCADE a DROP TYPE fails due to the circular dependency on the
type's I/O functions. The DROP FUNCTION statements for the I/O
functions have been removed, as DROP TYPE CASCADE removes them
automatically. Patch from Michael Fuhr.
(respectively) to rename yylex and related symbols. Some were doing
it this way already, while others used not-too-reliable sed hacks in
the Makefiles. It's all nice and consistent now.
unlike template0 and template1 does not have any special status in
terms of backend functionality. However, all external utilities such
as createuser and createdb now connect to "postgres" instead of
template1, and the documentation is changed to encourage people to use
"postgres" instead of template1 as a play area. This should fix some
longstanding gotchas involving unexpected propagation of database
objects by createdb (when you used template1 without understanding
the implications), as well as ameliorating the problem that CREATE
DATABASE is unhappy if anyone else is connected to template1.
Patch by Dave Page, minor editing by Tom Lane. All per recent
pghackers discussions.

structure.
exposed thereby. AFAICT these would not lead to any worse problems than
junk emitted on the backend's stdout, but we should have the option to
catch possible worse errors in future.
yy_fatal_error() call results in elog(ERROR) not exit(). This was
already fixed in the main lexer and plpgsql, but extend same technique
to all the other dot-l files. Also, on review of the possible calls
to yy_fatal_error(), it seems safe to use elog(ERROR) not elog(FATAL).
only remnant of this failed experiment is that the server will take

bison 1.875 and later as we did from earlier bison releases. Eventually
we will probably want to adopt the newer message spelling ... but not yet.
Per recent discussion on pgpatches.
Note: I didn't change the build rules for bootstrap, ecpg, or plpgsql
grammars, since these do not affect regression test results.
(usually bison output files), not as standalone files. This hack
works around flex's insistence on including <stdio.h> before we are
able to include postgres.h; postgres.h will already be read before
the compiler starts to read the flex output file. Needed for largefile
support on some platforms.
Create objects in public schema.
Make spacing/capitalization consistent.
Remove transaction block use for object creation.
Remove unneeded function GRANTs.
YYERROR_VERBOSE" from contrib/cube and contrib/seg, and adjusts the expected
output accordingly. Hopefully this will consistently pass across multiple
bison versions.

already fixed by You. However there were a few left and attached patch
should fix the rest of them.
I used StringInfo only in 2 places and both of them are inside debug
ifdefs. Only performance penalty will come from using strlen() like all
the other code does.
I also modified some of the already patched parts by changing
snprintf(buf, 2 * BUFSIZE, ... style lines to
snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), ... where buf is an array.

more work on the 'cstring' pseudo-type, but I'm going to commit the bulk
of the changes now before the tree starts shifting under me ...
an 'opclass owner' column in pg_opclass. Nothing is done with it at
present, but since there are plans to invent a CREATE OPERATOR CLASS
command soon, we'll probably want DROP OPERATOR CLASS too, which
suggests that a notion of ownership would be a good idea.
written a generic framework of rules that the contrib makefiles can
use instead of writing their own each time. You only need to set a few
variables and off you go.
pgsql-hackers. pg_opclass now has a row for each opclass supported by each
index AM, not a row for each opclass name. This allows pg_opclass to show
directly whether an AM supports an opclass, and furthermore makes it possible
to store additional information about an opclass that might be AM-dependent.
pg_opclass and pg_amop now store "lossy" and "haskeytype" information that we
previously expected the user to remember to provide in CREATE INDEX commands.
Lossiness is no longer an index-level property, but is associated with the
use of a particular operator in a particular index opclass.
Along the way, IndexSupportInitialize now uses the syscaches to retrieve
pg_amop and pg_amproc entries. I find this reduces backend launch time by
about ten percent, at the cost of a couple more special cases in catcache.c's
IndexScanOK.

2. support for 'pass-by-value' arguments - to test this
we used special opclass for int4 with values in range [0-2^15]
More testing will be done after resolving problem with
index_formtuple and implementation of B-tree using GiST
3. small patch to contrib modules (seg,cube,rtree_gist,intarray) -
mark functions as 'isstrict' where needed.

Cygwin with the possible exception of mSQL-interface. Since I don't
have mSQL installed, I skipped this tool.
Except for dealing with a missing getopt.h (oid2name) and HUGE (seg),
the bulk of the patch uses the standard PostgreSQL approach to deal with
Windows DLL issues.
I tested the build aspect of this patch under Cygwin and Linux without
any ill affects. Note that I did not actually attempt to test the code
for functionality.
The procedure to apply the patch is as follows:
$ # save the attachment as /tmp/contrib.patch
$ # change directory to the top of the PostgreSQL source tree
$ patch -p0 </tmp/contrib.patch
