optional arguments as text input functions, ie, typioparam OID and
atttypmod. Make all the datatypes that use typmod enforce it the same
way in typreceive as they do in typinput. This fixes a problem with
failure to enforce length restrictions during COPY FROM BINARY.
output area as INTERNAL not CSTRING. This is to prevent people from
calling the functions by hand. This is a permanent solution for the
back branches but I hope it is just a stopgap for HEAD.
Also performed an initial run through of upgrading our Copyright date to
extend to 2005 ... first run here was very simple ... change everything
where: grep 1996-2004 && the word 'Copyright' ... scanned through the
generated list with 'less' first, and after, to make sure that I only
picked up the right entries ...
- remove another senseless "extern" keyword that was applied to a
function definition
- change a foo more function signatures from "some_type foo()" to
"some_type foo(void)"
- rewrite another K&R style function definition
- make the type of the "action" function pointer in the KeyWord struct
in src/backend/utils/adt/formatting.c more precise
- replace some function signatures of the form "some_type foo()" with
"some_type foo(void)"
- replace a few instances of a literal 0 being used as a NULL pointer;
there are more instances of this in the code, but I just fixed a few
- in src/backend/utils/mb/wstrncmp.c, replace K&R style function
declarations with ANSI style, remove use of 'register' keyword
- remove an "extern" modifier that was applied to a function definition
(rather than a declaration)
Win32 port is now called 'win32' rather than 'win'
add -lwsock32 on Win32
make gethostname() be only used when kerberos4 is enabled
use /port/getopt.c
new /port/opendir.c routines
disable GUC unix_socket_group on Win32
convert some keywords.c symbols to KEYWORD_P to prevent conflict
create new FCNTL_NONBLOCK macro to turn off socket blocking
create new /include/port.h file that has /port prototypes, move
out of c.h
new /include/port/win32_include dir to hold missing include files
work around ERROR being defined in Win32 includes
in all cases, leaked TopMemoryContext memory in others. Make the
interaction between SetClientEncoding and InitializeClientEncoding
cleaner and better documented. I suspect these changes should be
back-patched into 7.3, but will wait on Tatsuo's verification.
