should not be too eager to reject paths involving unknown schemas, since
it can't really tell whether the schemas exist in the target database.
(Also, when reading pg_dumpall output, it could be that the schemas
don't exist yet, but eventually will.) ALTER USER SET has a similar issue.
So, reduce the normal ERROR to a NOTICE when checking search_path values
for these commands. Supporting this requires changing the API for GUC
assign_hook functions, which causes the patch to touch a lot of places,
but the changes are conceptually trivial.
expression accepted by the regex operators, per discussion yesterday.
Along the way, reduce deadlock_timeout from PGC_POSTMASTER to PGC_SIGHUP
category. It is probably best to insist that all backends share the same
setting, but that doesn't mean it has to be frozen at startup.
(extracted from Tcl 8.4.1 release, as Henry still hasn't got round to
making it a separate library). This solves a performance problem for
multibyte, as well as upgrading our regexp support to match recent Tcl
and nearly match recent Perl.
the SQL99 standard. (I'm not sure that the character-class features are
quite right, but that can be fixed later.) Document SQL99 and POSIX
regexps as being different features; provide variants of SUBSTRING for
each.
Will optimize the case for repeated calls for the same expression,
which seems to be the most common case. Formerly, always searched
from the first entry.
May want to look at the least-recently-used algorithm to make sure it
is identifying the right slots to reclaim. Seems silly to do math when
it seems that we could simply use an incrementing counter...
Implement SQL99 SIMILAR TO as a synonym for our existing operator "~".
Implement SQL99 regular expression SUBSTRING(string FROM pat FOR escape).
Extend the definition to make the FOR clause optional.
Define textregexsubstr() to actually implement this feature.
Update the regression test to include these new string features.
All tests pass.
Rename the regular expression support routines from "pg95_xxx" to "pg_xxx".
Define CREATE CHARACTER SET in the parser per SQL99. No implementation yet.
Does not work since it fetches one byte beyond the source data, and when
the phase of the moon is wrong, the source data is smack up against the
end of backend memory and you get SIGSEGV. Don't laugh, this is a fix
for an actual user bug report.
1. Remove the char2, char4, char8 and char16 types from postgresql
2. Change references of char16 to name in the regression tests.
3. Rename the char16.sql regression test to name.sql. 4. Modify
the regression test scripts and outputs to match up.
Might require new regression.{SYSTEM} files...
