that the tests can be twiddled independently, and added some documentation
pointing out the necessary connection between the sets of values tested.

I have the problem, when building by MS-VC6.
An error occurs in the 8.1.0 present source codes.
nmake -f win32.mak
..\..\port\getaddrinfo.c(244) : error C2065: 'WSA_NOT_ENOUGH_MEMORY'
..\..\port\getaddrinfo.c(342) : error C2065: 'WSATYPE_NOT_FOUND'
This is used by winsock2.h. However, Construction of a windows base is
winsock.h.
Then, Since MinGW has special environment, this is right. but, it is not
found in VC6.
Furthermore, in getaddrinfo.c, IPV6-API is used by
LoadLibraryA("ws2_32");
Referring to of dll the external memory generates this violation by VC6
specification.
I considered whether the whole should have been converted into winsock2.
However, Now, DLL of MinGW creation operates wonderfully as it is.
That's right, it has pliability by replacement of simple DLL.
Then, I propose the system using winsock(non IPV6) in construction of
VC6.

than owned by nobody. This results in cleaner display of language ACLs,
since the backend's aclchk.c uses the same convention. AFAICS there is
no practical difference but it's nice to avoid emitting SET SESSION
AUTHORIZATION; also this will make it easier to transition pg_dump to
some future version in which we may include an explicit ownership column
in pg_language. Per gripe from David Begley.

of client_min_messages (fatal + panic) are valid and also fixes a slight
issue with how psql tried to display error messages that aren't sent to
the client.
We often tell people to ignore errors in response to requests for things
like "drop if exists", but there's no good way to completely hide this
without upping client_min_messages past ERROR. When running a file like
SET client_min_messages TO 'FATAL';
DROP TABLE doesntexist;
with "psql -f filename" you get an error prefix of
"psql:/home/username/filename:3" even though there is no error message to
prefix because it isn't sent to the client.

emit when given the --clean option, in favor of individual DROP ROLE
commands. The old technique could not possibly work in 8.1, and was
never a very good idea anyway IMHO. The DROP ROLE approach has the
defect that the DROPs will fail for roles that own objects or have
privileges, but perhaps we can improve that later.

a good idea with the increasing prevalence of 32/64 bit environments.
argument as a 'regclass' value instead of a text string. The frontend
conversion of text string to pg_class OID is now encapsulated as an
implicitly-invocable coercion from text to regclass. This provides
backwards compatibility to the old behavior when the sequence argument
is explicitly typed as 'text'. When the argument is just an unadorned
literal string, it will be taken as 'regclass', which means that the
stored representation will be an OID. This solves longstanding problems
with renaming sequences that are referenced in default expressions, as
well as new-in-8.1 problems with renaming such sequences' schemas or
moving them to another schema. All per recent discussion.
Along the way, fix some rather serious problems in dbmirror's support
for mirroring sequence operations (int4 vs int8 confusion for instance).
relocated after installation. We can't trust the installation paths
inserted into Makefile.global by configure, so instead we must get the
paths from pg_config. This requires extending pg_config to support all
the separately-configurable path names, but that was on TODO anyway.

as per my recent proposal. For now the template data is hard-wired in
proclang.c --- this should be replaced later by a new shared system
catalog, but we don't want to force initdb during 8.1 beta. This change
lets us cleanly load existing dump files even if they contain outright
wrong information about a PL's support functions, such as a wrong path
to the shared library or a missing validator function. Also, we can
revert the recent kluges to make pg_dump dump PL support functions that
are stored in pg_catalog.
While at it, I removed the code in pg_regress that replaced $libdir
with a hardcoded path for temporary installations. This is no longer
needed given our support for relocatable installations.
IPv6 is obsoleted by recent Windows patch. Perform the runtime test
whenever HAVE_IPV6 is set. This should be OK since initdb can get
getaddrinfo from libpgport if needed.

Duplicate relfilenode values are also checked for when creating new

is applied last, after other constraints such as name patterns. This
is useful first because the pg_foo_is_visible() functions are relatively
expensive, and second because it minimizes the prospects for race
conditions. The change is fragile though since it makes unwarranted
assumptions about planner behavior, ie, that WHERE clauses will be
executed in the original order if there's not reason to change it.
This should fix ... or at least hide ... an intermittent failure in the
prepared_xacts regression test, while we think about what else to do.
The Problem: Occassionally a DBA needs to dump a database to a new
encoding. In instances where the current encoding, (or lack of an
encoding, like SQL_ASCII) is poorly supported on the target database
server, it can be useful to dump into a particular encoding. But,
currently the only way to set the encoding of a pg_dump file is to
change client_encoding in postgresql.conf and restart postmaster.
This is more than a little awkward for production systems.

into pg_catalog rather than public, and supports dumping languages whose
handlers are found there. This will make it easier to drop the public
schema if desired.
Unlike the previous patch, the comments have been updated and I have
reformatted some code to meet Alvarro's request to stick to 80 cols. (I
actually aghree with this - it makes printing the code much nicer).
I think I did the right thing w.r.t versions earlier than 7.3, but I
have no real way of checking, so that should be checked by someone with
more/older knowledge than me ;-)

inspection of shared catalogs. This allows pg_dumpall to continue to
work with pre-8.1 servers that likely won't have a database named postgres.
Also, suppress output of SYSID options for users and groups, since server
no longer does anything with these except emit a rude message.
There is much more to be done to update pg_dumpall for the roles feature,
but this at least makes it usable again. Per gripe from Chris K-L.

find myself typing a command and then wanting to get the syntax for it.
So I do a ctrl-a and add a \h: but psql does not recognize the command,
because I have stuff attached to it (e.g. "alter table foobar"), so I
have to scroll over and delete everything except the name of the command
itself. This patch gives \h three chances to match: if nothing matches
the complete string (current behavior), it tries to match the first two
words (e.g. "ALTER TABLE"). If that fails, it tries to match the first
word (e.g. "DELETE").

chdir into PGDATA and subsequently use relative paths instead of absolute
paths to access all files under PGDATA. This seems to give a small
performance improvement, and it should make the system more robust
against naive DBAs doing things like moving a database directory that
has a live postmaster in it. Per recent discussion.
and pg_auth_members. There are still many loose ends to finish in this
patch (no documentation, no regression tests, no pg_dump support for
instance). But I'm going to commit it now anyway so that Alvaro can
make some progress on shared dependencies. The catalog changes should
be pretty much done.
name matches the name of any parent-table constraint, without looking
at the constraint text. This is a not-very-bulletproof workaround for
the problem exhibited by Berend Tober last month. We really ought to
record constraint inheritance status in pg_constraint, but it's looking
like that may not get done for 8.1 --- and even if it does, we will
need this kluge for dumping from older servers.

(1) The code doesn't initialize `sum', so the initial "does the checksum
match?" test is wrong.
(2) The loop that is intended to check for a "null block" just checks
the first byte of the tar block 512 times, rather than each of the
512 bytes one time (!), which I'm guessing was the intent.
It was only through sheer luck that this worked in the first place.

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.

psql. i.e. "\pset format troff-ms". The patch also corrects some
problems with the "latex" format, notably defining an extra column in
the output table, and correcting some alignment issues; it also
changes the output to match the border setting as documented in the
manual page and as shown with the "aligned" format.
The troff-ms output is mostly identical to the latex output allowing
for the differences between the two typesetters.
The output should be saved in a file and piped as follows:
cat file | tbl | troff -T ps -ms > file.ps
or
tbl file | troff -T ps -ms > file.ps
Because it contains tabs, you'll need to redirect psql output or use
"script", rather than pasting from a terminal window, due to the tabs
which can be replaced with spaces.

essential for PITR log shipping and for 2PC.
Instead of a separate CRC on each backup block, include backup blocks
in their parent WAL record's CRC; this is important to ensure that the
backup block really goes with the WAL record, ie there was not a page
tear right at the start of the backup block. Implement a simple form
of compression of backup blocks: drop any run of zeroes starting at
pd_lower, so as not to store the unused 'hole' that commonly exists in
PG heap and index pages. Tweak PageRepairFragmentation and related
routines to ensure they keep the unused space zeroed, so that the above
compression method remains effective. All per recent discussions.

scanner anyway) to avoid having any backup states. According to the
flex manual, this should speed things up, and indeed the backend scanner
is about a third faster according to some quick profiling checks.
I haven't tried to measure the speed change in psql, but it probably
is similar.
