Also, if linked against other versions than the default MSVCRT library
(for example the MSVC build which links against MSVCRT80), also update
the cache in the default MSVCRT at the same time.
This should fix the issues with setting LC_MESSAGES on the MSVC build.

by me.
not include postgres.h nor anything else it doesn't directly need. Add
#includes to calling files as needed to compensate. Per my proposal of
yesterday.
This should be noted as a source code change in the 8.4 release notes,
since it's likely to require changes in add-on modules.
so that user-defined window functions are possible. For the moment you'll
have to write them in C, for lack of any interface to the WindowObject API
in the available PLs, but it's better than no support at all.
There was some debate about the best syntax for this. I ended up choosing
the "it's an attribute" position --- the other approach will inevitably be
more work, and the likely market for user-defined window functions is
probably too small to justify it.
patch. This includes the ability to force the frame to cover the whole
partition, and the ability to make the frame end exactly on the current row
rather than its last ORDER BY peer. Supporting any more of the full SQL
frame-clause syntax will require nontrivial hacking on the window aggregate
code, so it'll have to wait for 8.5 or beyond.
This doesn't do any remote or external things yet, but it gives modules
like plproxy and dblink a standardized and future-proof system for
managing their connection information.

recent changes in polymorphism regression test.
to return NULL, instead of erroring out, if the target object is specified by
OID and we can't find that OID in the catalogs. Since these functions operate
internally on SnapshotNow rules, there is a race condition when using them
in user queries: the query's MVCC snapshot might "see" a catalog row that's
already committed dead, leading to a failure when the inquiry function is
applied. Returning NULL should generally provide more convenient behavior.
This issue has been complained of before, and in particular we are now seeing
it in the regression tests due to another recent patch.
pg_database_encoding_max_length() predicts the maximum character length
returned by wchar2char(). Per Hiroshi Inoue, MB_CUR_MAX isn't usable on
Windows because we allow encoding = UTF8 when the locale says differently;
and getting rid of it seems a good idea on general principles because it
narrows our dependence on libc's locale API just a little bit more.
Also install a check for overflow of the buffer size computation.

pretty useful subset of the spec's functionality, and it is enough to
allow obsoleting contrib/intagg.

This version still has the suspicious behavior of returning null for an
empty array (rather than zero), but this may need a wholesale revision of
empty array behavior, currently under discussion.

in "postgres_verbose" intervalstyle, and the equally arbitrary decision to
show at least two fractional-seconds digits in most other datetime display
styles. This results in some minor changes in the expected regression test
outputs.
Also, coalesce a lot of repetitive code in datetime.c into subroutines,
for clarity and ease of maintenance. In particular this roughly halves
the number of #ifdef HAVE_INT64_TIMESTAMP segments.

the SQL standard (at least for interval values that fall within the standard's

(which do the same things but use bool control flags instead of arbitrary
char values). Eliminate the former duplicate coding of these functions,
reducing the deprecated functions to mere wrappers around the newer ones.
We can't get rid of them entirely because add-on modules probably still
contain many instances of the old coding style.

inputs is unique or nearly so), make eqjoinsel() clamp the ndistinct estimates
to be not more than the estimated number of rows coming from the input
relations. This allows the estimate to change in response to the selectivity
of restriction conditions on the inputs.
This is a pretty narrow patch and maybe we should be more aggressive about
similarly clamping ndistinct in other cases; but I'm worried about
double-counting the effects of the restriction conditions. However, it seems
to help for the case exhibited by Grzegorz Jaskiewicz (antijoin against a
small subset of a relation), so let's try this for awhile.
that represent some expression that we desire to compute below the top level
of the plan, and then let that value "bubble up" as though it were a plain
Var (ie, a column value).
The immediate application is to allow sub-selects to be flattened even when
they are below an outer join and have non-nullable output expressions.
Formerly we couldn't flatten because such an expression wouldn't properly
go to NULL when evaluated above the outer join. Now, we wrap it in a
PlaceHolderVar and arrange for the actual evaluation to occur below the outer
join. When the resulting Var bubbles up through the join, it will be set to
NULL if necessary, yielding the correct results. This fixes a planner
limitation that's existed since 7.1.
In future we might want to use this mechanism to re-introduce some form of
Hellerstein's "expensive functions" optimization, ie place the evaluation of
an expensive function at the most suitable point in the plan tree.
