Previously, the -1 option was silently ignored.
Also, emit an error if -1 is used in a context where it won't be
respected, to avoid user confusion.
Original patch by Fabien COELHO, but this version is quite different
from the original submission.
They don't actually do anything yet; that will get fixed in a
follow-on commit. But this gets the basic infrastructure in place,
including CREATE/ALTER/DROP EVENT TRIGGER; support for COMMENT,
SECURITY LABEL, and ALTER EXTENSION .. ADD/DROP EVENT TRIGGER;
pg_dump and psql support; and documentation for the anticipated
initial feature set.
Dimitri Fontaine, with review and a bunch of additional hacking by me.
Thom Brown extensively reviewed earlier versions of this patch set,
but there's not a whole lot of that code left in this commit, as it
turns out.
The Solaris Studio compiler warns about these instances, unlike more
mainstream compilers such as gcc. But manual inspection showed that
the code is clearly not reachable, and we hope no worthy compiler will
complain about removing this code.
join_path_components() tried to remove leading ".." components from its
tail argument, but it was not nearly bright enough to do so correctly
unless the head argument was (a) absolute and (b) canonicalized.
Rather than try to fix that logic, let's just get rid of it: there is no
correctness reason to remove "..", and cosmetic concerns can be taken
care of by a subsequent canonicalize_path() call. Per bug #6715 from
Greg Davidson.
Back-patch to all supported branches. It appears that pre-9.2, this
function is only used with absolute paths as head arguments, which is why
we'd not noticed the breakage before. However, third-party code might be
expecting this function to work in more general cases, so it seems wise
to back-patch.
In HEAD and 9.2, also make some minor cosmetic improvements to callers.
Before, some places didn't document the short options (-? and -V),
some documented both, some documented nothing, and they were listed in
various orders. Now this is hopefully more consistent and complete.
This adds the variable COMP_KEYWORD_CASE, which controls in what case
keywords are completed. This is partially to let users configure the
change from commit 69f4f1c357, but it
also offers more behaviors than were available before.
The original syntax wasn't universally loved, and it didn't allow its
usage in CREATE TABLE, only ALTER TABLE. It now works everywhere, and
it also allows using ALTER TABLE ONLY to add an uninherited CHECK
constraint, per discussion.
The pg_constraint column has accordingly been renamed connoinherit.
This commit partly reverts some of the changes in
61d81bd28d, particularly some pg_dump and
psql bits, because now pg_get_constraintdef includes the necessary NO
INHERIT within the constraint definition.

Some tweaks by me
ANALYZE now accepts foreign tables and allows the table's FDW to control
how the sample rows are collected. (But only manual ANALYZEs will touch
foreign tables, for the moment, since among other things it's not very
clear how to handle remote permissions checks in an auto-analyze.)
contrib/file_fdw is extended to support this.
Etsuro Fujita, reviewed by Shigeru Hanada, some further tweaking by me.
There is no existing or foreseeable case in which psql should see a
PGRES_COPY_BOTH PQresultStatus; and if such a case ever emerges, it's a
pretty good bet that these code fragments wouldn't do the right thing
anyway. Remove them, and let the existing default cases do the appropriate
thing, namely emit an "unexpected PQresultStatus" bleat.
Noted while working on libpq row processor patch, for which I was
considering adding a PGRES_SUSPENDED status code --- the same default-case
treatment would be appropriate for that.
Over-optimization (by me, looks like :-() broke the case of recognizing
a word boundary just before a quoted identifier. Reported and diagnosed
by Dean Rasheed.
Some of these are newly added, some are older and were forgotten, some
don't contain any translatable strings right now but look like they
could in the future.
Per a suggestion from Euler Taveira, it seems like a good idea to include
this information in \du (and \dg) output. This costs nothing for people
who are not using the VALID UNTIL feature, while for those who are, it's
rather critical information.

For those variables only used when asserts are enabled, use a new
macro PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY, which expands to
__attribute__((unused)) when asserts are not enabled.
Multi-line "Inherits:" and "Child tables:" footers were misindented when
those strings' translations involved multibyte characters, because we were
using strlen() instead of an appropriate display width measurement.
In passing, avoid doing gettext() more than once per loop in these places.
While at it, fix pg_wcswidth(), which has been entirely broken since about
8.2, but fortunately has been unused for the same length of time.
Report and patch by Sergey Burladyan (bug #6480)
Due to an apparent thinko, when printing a table in expanded mode
(\x), space would be allocated for 1 slot plus 1 byte per line,
instead of 1 slot per line plus 1 slot for the NULL terminator. When
the line count is small, reading or writing the terminator would
therefore access memory beyond what was allocated.
Running "psql -f -" used to print
psql:<stdin>:1: ERROR: blah
but that got broken between 8.4 and 9.0 (commit
b291c0fba8), and now it printed
psql:-:1: ERROR: blah
This reverts to the old behavior and cleans up some code that was left
dead or useless by the mentioned commit.
psql backslash commands that deal with file or directory names require
quotes around those that have spaces, single quotes, or backslashes.
However, tab-completing such names does not provide said quotes, and is
thus almost useless with them.
This patch fixes the problem by having a wrapper function around
rl_filename_completion_function that dequotes on input and quotes on
output. This eases dealing with such names.

Add new psql settings and command-line options to support setting the
field and record separators for unaligned output to a zero byte, for
easier interfacing with other shell tools.

This enables a bunch of features, notably ON_ERROR_ROLLBACK. It also
makes COPY failure (either in the server or psql) as a whole behave more
sanely in psql.
Additionally, having more commands in the same command line as COPY
works better (though since psql splits lines at semicolons, this doesn't
matter much unless you're using -c).
Also tighten a couple of switches on PQresultStatus() to add
PGRES_COPY_BOTH support and stop assuming that unknown statuses received
are errors; have those print diagnostics where warranted.

All supported platforms support the C89 standard function atexit()
(SunOS 4 probably being the last one not to), and supporting both
makes the code clumsy.
This adds support for the more or less SQL-conforming USAGE privilege
on types and domains. The intent is to be able restrict which users
can create dependencies on types, which restricts the way in which
owners can alter types.

This makes them enforceable only on the parent table, not on children
tables. This is useful in various situations, per discussion involving
people bitten by the restrictive behavior introduced in 8.4.

Instead, add a function pg_tablespace_location(oid) used to return
the same information, and do this by reading the symbolic link.
Doing it this way makes it possible to relocate a tablespace when the
database is down by simply changing the symbolic link.
This can be used to set (or unset) environment variables that will
affect programs called by psql (such as the PAGER), probably most
usefully in a .psqlrc file.

This can change the meaning of queries, if the blank line happens to

This adds the "auto" option to the \x command, which switches to the

Previously, you'd get "function pg_catalog.pg_get_functiondef(integer) does

Make it return empty strings when there are no more words to the left of
the current position, instead of sometimes returning NULL and other times
returning copies of the leftmost word. Also, fetch the words in one scan,
rather than the previous wasteful approach of starting from scratch for
each word. Make the code a bit harder to break when someone decides we
need more words of context, too. (There was actually a memory leak here,
because whoever added prev6_wd neglected to free it.)
This is merely an exercise in satisfying pedants, not a bug fix, because
in every case we were checking for failure later with ferror(), or else
there was nothing useful to be done about a failure anyway. Document
the latter cases.
This addresses only those cases that are easy to fix by adding or
moving a const qualifier or removing an unnecessary cast. There are
many more complicated cases remaining.
These changes allow backtick command evaluation and psql variable
interpolation to happen on substrings of a single meta-command argument.
Formerly, no such evaluations happened at all if the backtick or colon
wasn't the first character of the argument, and we considered an argument
completed as soon as we'd processed one backtick, variable reference, or
quoted substring. A string like 'FOO'BAR was thus taken as two arguments
not one, not exactly what one would expect. In the new coding, an argument
is considered terminated only by unquoted whitespace or backslash.
Also, clean up a bunch of omissions, infelicities and outright errors in
the psql documentation of variables and metacommand argument syntax.
Per previous experimentation, backtracking slows down lexing performance
significantly (by about a third). It's usually pretty easy to avoid, just
need to have rules that accept an incomplete construct and do whatever the
lexer would have done otherwise.
The backtracking was introduced by the patch that added quoted variable
substitution. Back-patch to 9.0 where that was added.
Rather than dumping out the raw array as PostgreSQL represents it
internally, we now print it out in a format similar to the one in
which the user input it, which seems a lot more user friendly.

Instead of displaying comments on an arbitrary subset of the object
types which support them, make \dd display comments on exactly those
object types which don't have their own backlash commands. We now
regard the display of comments as properly the job of the relevant
backslash command (though many of them do so only in verbose mode)
rather than something that \dd should be responsible for. However,
a handful of object types have no backlash command, so make \dd
give information about those.
Josh Kupershmidt
The relevant backslash commands already exist, so we're just adding an
additional column. With this commit, all objects that have psql backslash
commands and accept comments should now display those comments at least
in verbose mode.
Josh Kupershmidt, with doc additions by me.
\dc and \dD now accept a "+" option, which will cause the comments to
be displayed. Along the way, correct a few oversights in the previous
commit in this area, 3b17efdfdd - namely,
(1) when \dL+ is used, make description still be the last column, for
consistency with what we've done elsewhere; and (2) document the
difference between \dC and \dC+.
Josh Kupershmidt, with a couple of doc changes by me.
The output of \dL (list languages) is fairly narrow, so we just always
display the comment. \dC (list casts) can get fairly wide, so we only
display comments if the new \dC+ option is specified.
Josh Kupershmidt
Also change "switch" to "arg" because "switch" is a bit of a sloppy
term. So the environment variable is called
PSQL_EDITOR_LINENUMBER_ARG. Set "+" as hardcoded default value on
Unix (since "vi" is the hardcoded default editor), so many users won't
have to configure this at all. Move the documentation around a bit to
centralize the editor configuration under environment variables,
rather than repeating bits of it under every backslash command that
invokes an editor.
\ir is short for "include relative"; when used from a script, the
supplied pathname will be interpreted relative to the input file,
rather than to the current working directory.
Gurjeet Singh, reviewed by Josh Kupershmidt, with substantial further
cleanup by me.
Most queries end with a backslash, but not a newline, so try to
standardize on that, for the convenience of people using psql -E to

handleCopyIn incremented pset.lineno for each line of COPY data read from
a file. This is correct when reading from the current script file (i.e.,
we are doing COPY FROM STDIN followed by in-line data), but it's wrong if
the data is coming from some other file. Per bug #6083 from Steve Haslam.
Back-patch to all supported versions.
The --flag argument can be used to tell xgettext the arguments of
which functions should be flagged with c-format in the PO files,
instead of guessing based on the presence of format specifiers, which
fails if no format specifiers are present but the translation
accidentally introduces one.
Appropriate flag settings have been added for each message catalog.

It currently doesn't make a difference, but it's inconsistent with
most other usage, and it might interfere with a future patch, so I'll
change it all in a separate commit.
Also, replace tabs with spaces for alignment.
