1d3a47af0c Attached patch for unconditional enabling of pltcl-unknown support.
Enabling this feature adds very light overhead of 1 select from pg_class on
first using of pl/tcl in backend if unknown suppport is really unused.
But pl/tcl with this support has very improved functionality.

Patch includes changes to documentation.

f426465ba9 Add a new function "pg_client_encoding" which returns the current client
side encoding name. This is necessary for client API's such as JDBC
to perform correct encoding conversions. See my email "[HACKERS]
pg_client_encoding" 10 Sep 2001.

f9e6e27c87 Break transformCreateStmt() into multiple routines and make
transformAlterStmt() use these routines, instead of having lots of
duplicate (not to mention should-have-been-duplicate) code.
Adding a column with a CHECK constraint actually works now,
and the tests to reject unsupported DEFAULT and NOT NULL clauses
actually fire now.  ALTER TABLE ADD PRIMARY KEY works, modulo
having to have created the column(s) NOT NULL already.

2034086ed1 Correct some errors in plpgsql examples, as reported by Junichi Kobayasi. 2001-10-09 04:55:11 +00:00
Tom Lane
0b3bca6c6f Change plpgsql to depend on main parser's type-declaration grammar,
rather than having its own somewhat half-baked notion of what a type
declaration looks like.  This is necessary now to ensure that plpgsql
will think a 'timestamp' variable has the same semantics as 'timestamp'
does in the main SQL grammar; and it should avoid divergences in future.

255bd588a7 Hack for Jade vs TeX interpretation of "--" 2001-10-04 22:25:48 +00:00
Tom Lane
03b0a589d1 Consider interpreting a function call as a trivial (binary-compatible)
type coercion after failing to find an exact match in pg_proc, but before
considering interpretations that involve a function call with one or
more argument type coercions.  This avoids surprises wherein what looks
like a type coercion is interpreted as coercing to some third type and
then to the destination type, as in Dave Blasby's bug report of 3-Oct-01.
See subsequent discussion in pghackers.

2e5fda7b7e DROP AGGREGATE and COMMENT ON AGGREGATE now accept the expected syntax
'aggname (aggtype)'.  The old syntax 'aggname aggtype' is still accepted
for backwards compatibility.  Fix pg_dump, which was actually broken for
most cases of user-defined aggregates.  Clean up error messages associated
with these commands.

f9f258281e Create a GUC parameter max_files_per_process that is a configurable
upper limit on what we will believe from sysconf(_SC_OPEN_MAX).  The
default value is 1000, so that under ordinary conditions it won't
affect the behavior.  But on platforms where the kernel promises far
more than it can deliver, this can be used to prevent running out of
file descriptors.  See numerous past discussions, eg, pgsql-hackers
around 23-Dec-2000.
