Peter Eisentraut ed24f28538 Fixups for man pages 2002-11-21 23:34:43 +00:00
Tom Lane f9b5b41ef9 Code review for ON COMMIT patch. Make the actual on-commit action happen
before commit, not after :-( --- the original coding is not only unsafe
if an error occurs while it's processing, but it generates an invalid
sequence of WAL entries.  Resurrect 7.2 logic for deleting items when
no longer needed.  Use an enum instead of random macros.  Editorialize
on names used for routines and constants.  Teach backend/nodes routines
about new field in CreateTable struct.  Add a regression test.

Bruce Momjian ebb531836a Add code to handle [ON COMMIT { PRESERVE ROWS | DELETE ROWS | DROP }]
for temp tables.

Bruce Momjian 81efc82608 This patch fixes a minor inaccuracy in the documentation: NOT NULL is
not synonymous with CHECK (xxx IS NOT NULL) -- for example, consider
ALTER TABLE ADD PRIMARY KEY, which checks for 'NOT NULL', not a check
constraint.

Thomas G. Lockhart 03a321d214 Use PostgreSQL consistantly throughout docs. Before, usage was split evenly
between Postgres and PostgreSQL.

Peter Eisentraut 17f0b55d15 Initial round of tweakage for man pages 2001-11-18 20:35:02 +00:00
Peter Eisentraut f08c9ff84b Make the CREATE TABLE ref page more readable and update some information. 2001-10-22 18:14:47 +00:00
Peter Eisentraut ffb8f73890 Bunch of copy fitting and style sheet tweakage to get decent looking print
output (from pdfjadetex).  Also updated instructions to install documentation
processing toolchain.

Peter Eisentraut 351a0c1736 Replace ASCII-quotes with proper markup. 2001-09-13 15:55:24 +00:00
Peter Eisentraut 89a1ea4207 Put some kind of grammatical uniformity in the <refpurpose> lines. 2001-09-03 12:57:50 +00:00
Tom Lane ef6ccb0bcc Cleanup some minor oversights in optional-OIDs stuff. 2001-08-10 20:52:25 +00:00
Tom Lane bf56f0759b Make OIDs optional, per discussions in pghackers. WITH OIDS is still the
default, but OIDS are removed from many system catalogs that don't need them.
Some interesting side effects: TOAST pointers are 20 bytes not 32 now;
pg_description has a three-column key instead of one.

Bugs fixed in passing: BINARY cursors work again; pg_class.relhaspkey
has some usefulness; pg_dump dumps comments on indexes, rules, and
triggers in a valid order.

initdb forced.

Tom Lane 77fe28f33e Describe handling of multiply-inherited fields correctly. 2001-05-03 17:50:55 +00:00
Peter Eisentraut c1f5ed6394 When making xrefs to refsects, the linkend should point to the refsect and
the endterm to the title element, not both to the title.  At least
docbook2man prefers it that way.
2001-02-04 12:18:08 +00:00
Tom Lane 359459a44d Bring CREATE TABLE syntax synopsis into line with reality; update a
bunch of old or poorly-worded documentation.
2001-01-12 05:06:40 +00:00
Tom Lane 2fb6cc9045 Remove not-really-standard implementation of CREATE TABLE's UNDER clause,
and revert documentation to describe the existing INHERITS clause
instead, per recent discussion in pghackers.  Also fix implementation
of SQL_inheritance SET variable: it is not cool to look at this var
during the initial parsing phase, only during parse_analyze().  See
recent bug report concerning misinterpretation of date constants just
after a SET TIMEZONE command.  gram.y really has to be an invariant
transformation of the query string to a raw parsetree; anything that
can vary with time must be done during parse analysis.

Thomas G. Lockhart a27512e634 Complete merge of all old man page information.
ecpg reference page still needs formatting.
1999-07-22 15:09:15 +00:00
Thomas G. Lockhart a4ac2f458e Fix markup for docbook2man man page generation.
No big deal; fixed lots of other markup at the same time.
Bigest change: make sure there is no whitespace
 in front of <term> contents.
This will probably help the other output types too.
