kibitzing from Tom Lane. Large objects are now all stored in a single
system relation "pg_largeobject" --- no more xinv or xinx files, no more
relkind 'l'. This should offer substantial performance improvement for
large numbers of LOs, since there won't be directory bloat anymore.
It'll also fix problems like running out of locktable space when you
access thousands of LOs in one transaction.
Also clean up cruft in read/write routines. LOs with "holes" in them
(never-written byte ranges) now work just like Unix files with holes do:
a hole reads as zeroes but doesn't occupy storage space.
INITDB forced!
particular, allow linking with arbitrary commands rather than only $(AR) or
$(LD), and treat C++ without hacks.
Add option to disable shared libraries. This takes the place of the
BSD_SHLIB variable. The regression test driver ignores the plpgsql test
if there are no shared libraries available.
as well allow DROP multiple INDEX, RULE, TYPE as well. Add missing
CommandCounterIncrement to DROP loop, which could cause trouble otherwise
with multiple DROP of items affecting same catalog entries. Try to
bring a little consistency to various error messages using 'does not exist',
'nonexistent', etc --- I standardized on 'does not exist' since that's
what the vast majority of the existing uses seem to be.

Sort out usage of CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS (and CXXFLAGS). Add "override" keyword

flags.
This patch forces the use of 'DROP VIEW' to destroy views.
It also changes the syntax of DROP VIEW to
DROP VIEW v1, v2, ...
to match the syntax of DROP TABLE.
Some error messages were changed so this patch also includes changes to the
appropriate expected/*.out files.
Doc changes for 'DROP TABLE" and 'DROP VIEW' are included.

after that dynamic loading isn't working and shared memory handling is
broken.
Attached with this message, there is a Zip file which contain :
* beos.diff = patch file generated with difforig
* beos = folder with beos support files which need to be moved in /
src/backend/port
* expected = foler with three file for message and precision
difference in regression test
* regression.diff = rule problem (need to kill the backend manualy)
* dynloader = dynloader files (they are also in the pacth files,
but there is so much modification that I have join full files)
Everything works except a problem in 'rules' Is there some problems
with rules in the current tree ? It used to works with last week tree.

SQL92 semantics, including support for ALL option. All three can be used
in subqueries and views. DISTINCT and ORDER BY work now in views, too.
This rewrite fixes many problems with cross-datatype UNIONs and INSERT/SELECT
where the SELECT yields different datatypes than the INSERT needs. I did
that by making UNION subqueries and SELECT in INSERT be treated like
subselects-in-FROM, thereby allowing an extra level of targetlist where the
datatype conversions can be inserted safely.
INITDB NEEDED!
and the fmgr redesign.
It makes the homebrewn dl*() functions for more recent Versions of AIX
obsolete
by using the system dl*() functions instead.
It also fixes the expected file for the horology regression test.
Please regenerate configure from configure.in, I don't have the
environment/time.
Andreas
(Don't forget that an alias is required.) Views reimplemented as expanding
to subselect-in-FROM. Grouping, aggregates, DISTINCT in views actually
work now (he says optimistically). No UNION support in subselects/views
yet, but I have some ideas about that. Rule-related permissions checking
moved out of rewriter and into executor.
INITDB REQUIRED!
There is still no effective difference but it will kick in once setuid
functions exist (not included here). Make old getpgusername() alias for
current_user.
regression tests for specific types, and move a few others to the
cross-type "horology" test.
Rearrange the test order slightly, and move the abstime test to the
"parallel safe" area.
Hand-patch the results for "1947" and for "solaris", so those may not
be exactly correct.
for views. Views are now have a "relkind" of
RELKIND_VIEW instead of RELKIND_RELATION.
Also, views no longer have actual heap storage
files.
The following changes were made
1. CREATE VIEW sets the new relkind
2. The executor complains if a DELETE or
INSERT references a view.
3. DROP RULE complains if an attempt is made
to delete a view SELECT rule.
4. CREATE RULE "_RETmytable" AS ON SELECT TO mytable DO INSTEAD ...
1. checks to make sure mytable is empty.
2. sets the relkind to RELKIND_VIEW.
3. deletes the heap storage files.
5. LOCK myview is not allowed. :)
6. the regression test type_sanity was changed to
account for the new relkind value.
7. CREATE INDEX ON myview ... is not allowed.
8. VACUUM myview is not allowed.
VACUUM automatically skips views when do the entire
database.
9. TRUNCATE myview is not allowed.
THINGS LEFT TO THINK ABOUT
o pg_views
o pg_dump
o pgsql (\d \dv)
o Do we really want to be able to inherit from views?
o Is 'DROP TABLE myview' OK?

The regression tests abstime, horology, int2, int4, and tinterval fail
by default. They will pass if comparison is made to one of the
variant expected/*.out files.
(A related problem is that the geometry test fails. This seems to be
just a matter of FP precision but more rigorous inspection is needed.
No existing expected/geometry-*.out variant matches.)
Pete Forman
didn't hear anything about, but which would
have broken with the function manager changes
anyway.
Well, this patch checks that a unique constraint
of some form (unique or pk) is on the referenced
columns of an FK constraint and that the columns
in the referencing table exist at creation time.
The former is to move closer to SQL compatibility
and the latter is in answer to a bug report.
I also added a basic check of this functionality
to the alter table and foreign key regression
tests.

Update functions to new-style fmgr, make BIT and VARBIT be binary-
equivalent, add entries to allow these types to be btree indexed,
correct a few bugs. BIT/VARBIT are now toastable, too.
NOTE: initdb forced due to catalog updates.
rather than the "~~" operator; this made it easy to add ESCAPE features.
Implement ILIKE, NOT ILIKE, and the ESCAPE clause for them.
afaict this is not MultiByte clean, but lots of other stuff isn't either.
Fix up underlying support code for LIKE/NOT LIKE.
Things should be faster and does not require internal string copying.
Update regression test to add explicit checks for
LIKE/NOT LIKE/ILIKE/NOT ILIKE.
Remove colon and semi-colon operators as threatened in 7.0.
Implement SQL99 COMMIT/AND NO CHAIN.
Throw elog(ERROR) on COMMIT/AND CHAIN per spec
since we don't yet support it.
Implement SQL99 CREATE/DROP SCHEMA as equivalent to CREATE DATABASE.
This is only a stopgap or demo since schemas will have another
implementation soon.
Remove a few unused production rules to get rid of warnings
which crept in on the last commit.
Fix up tabbing in some places by removing embedded spaces.
on myself to do something about the non-self-consistency of the inet
comparison functions. The results are probably still semantically wrong
(inet and cidr should have different comparison semantics, I think)
but at least the boolean operators now agree with each other and with
the sort order of indexes on inet/cidr.
(Sorry, couldn't help it...)
Removed type filename as well, since it's unused and probably useless.
INITDB FORCED, because pg_rewrite columns are now plain text again.
allows fixing problems with operators that expected to be able to
return a NULL, such as the '#' line-segment-intersection operator
that tried to return NULL when the two segments don't intersect.
(See, eg, bug report from 1-Nov-99 on pghackers.) Fix some other
bugs in passing, such as backwards comparison in path_distance().
the planner may try to generate them as a result of transitivity of the
existing int2-vs-int4 and int4-vs-int8 operators. In fact, it is now
necessary that mergejoinable cross-datatype operators form closed sets.
Add an opr_sanity regress test to detect missing operators.
varlena elements work now. Allow assignment to previously-nonexistent
subscript position to extend array, but only for 1-D arrays and only
if adjacent to existing positions (could do more if we had a way to
represent nulls in arrays, but I don't want to tackle that now).
Arrange for assignment of NULL to an array element in UPDATE to be a
no-op, rather than setting the entire array to NULL as it used to.
(Throwing an error would be a reasonable alternative, but it's never
done that...) Update regress test accordingly.
type different from input type but are expecting ExecAgg to insert the
first non-null input as the starting transition value. This has always
been verboten, but wasn't checked for until now...
There's now only one transition value and transition function.
NULL handling in aggregates is a lot cleaner. Also, use Numeric
accumulators instead of integer accumulators for sum/avg on integer
datatypes --- this avoids overflow at the cost of being a little slower.
Implement VARIANCE() and STDDEV() aggregates in the standard backend.
Also, enable new LIKE selectivity estimators by default. Unrelated
change, but as long as I had to force initdb anyway...
Include updates for the comment.sql regression test.
Implement SET SESSION CHARACTERISTICS and SET DefaultXactIsoLevel.
Implement SET SESSION CHARACTERISTICS TRANSACTION COMMIT
and SET AutoCommit in the parser only.
Need to add code to actually do something.
Implement WITHOUT TIME ZONE type qualifier.
Define SCHEMA keyword, along with stubbed-out grammar.
Implement "[IN|INOUT|OUT] [varname] type" function arguments
in parser only; INOUT and OUT throws an elog(ERROR).
Add PATH as a type-specific token, since PATH is in SQL99
to support schema resource search and resolution.
* Add option to build with OpenSSL out of the box. Fix thusly exposed
bit rot. Although it compiles now, getting this to do something
useful is left as an exercise.
* Fix Kerberos options to defer checking for required libraries until
all the other libraries are checked for.
* Change default odbcinst.ini and krb5.srvtab path to PREFIX/etc.
* Install work around for Autoconf's install-sh relative path anomaly.
Get rid of old INSTL_*_OPTS variables, now that we don't need them
anymore.
* Use `gunzip -c' instead of g?zcat. Reportedly broke on AIX.
* Look for only one of readline.h or readline/readline.h, not both.
* Make check for PS_STRINGS cacheable. Don't test for the header files
separately.
* Disable fcntl(F_SETLK) test on Linux.
* Substitute the standard GCC warnings set into CFLAGS in configure,
don't add it on in Makefile.global.
* Sweep through contrib tree to teach makefiles standard semantics.
... and in completely unrelated news:
* Make postmaster.opts arbitrary options-aware. I still think we need to
save the environment as well.
functional.
Handle include file installation in src/include/Makefile
genbki.sh improvements: Don't substitute anything by config.status,
instead pass in AWK and CPP through environment. Change calling
convention to support named output files, so we get to see error
messages on stderr.
Rename bootstrap template files and install them into PREFIX/share.
Update initdb to that effect and other readability improvements
in initdb.
Now the to_timestamp() support WW,W,J,SSSS,DDD conversion from strings and
the am/pm bug is fixed, the to_char() use week-of-year (WW) full compatible
with Oracle.
This patch update relevant regress-tests and docs too.

entries now for int8 and network hash indexes. int24_ops and int42_ops
are gone. pg_opclass no longer contains multiple entries claiming to be
the default opclass for the same datatype. opr_sanity regress test
extended to catch errors like these in the future.
quote-stripping, and acl-checking tasks for these functions from the
parser, and do them at function execution time instead. This fixes
the failure of pg_dump to produce correct output for nextval(Foo)
used in a rule, and also eliminates the restriction that the argument
of these functions must be a parse-time constant.
inputs have been converted to newstyle. This should go a long way towards
fixing our portability problems with platforms where char and short
parameters are passed differently from int-width parameters. Still
more to do for the Alpha port however.
is in <string> and not in <string.h> on QNX4/egcs-2.91.60.
Probably this can be changed for all platforms. The test in line 1705 uses
<string> as well. Because I am not sure, I havn't this included into the
patch.
doc/Makefile has to be sligthly modified as it has been done for
src/backend/Makefile due to a QNX4 problem (patch attached)
Furthermore src/test/regress/run_check.sh needs to be patched as it has been
done for regress.sh (patch attached). Please note that in the patch the
postmaster is started always with the -i option.
run_check.sh reports the test "limit" as failed, but in reallity it is OK.
regress.sh reports it as OK.
Andreas Kardos
just use the portable form,
tr ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
There were a bunch of places that weren't paying attention to configure's
result anyway (including configure itself!?); clean them up too.
Add a random number generator and seed setter (random(), SET SEED)
Fix up the interval*float8 math to carry partial months
into the time field.
Add float8*interval so we have symmetry in the available math.
Fix the parser and define.c to accept SQL92 types as field arguments.
Fix the parser to accept SQL92 types for CREATE TYPE, etc. This is
necessary to allow...
Bit/varbit support in contrib/bit cleaned up to compile and load
cleanly. Still needs some work before final release.
Implement the "SOME" keyword as a synonym for "ANY" per SQL92.
Implement ascii(text), ichar(int4), repeat(text,int4) to help
support the ODBC driver.
Enable the TRUNCATE() function mapping in the ODBC driver.
- I was unable to compile ecpg due to the ":=" instead of "=" in defining
LIBPQDIR and some other variables in Makefile.global.in
- pg_id (and also pg_encoding) executable was not removed during "make
clean" - there was no $(X) appended to the executable name for rm
- I have added result for int2, int4, float8 and geometry regression tests
- int2, int2 - yet another message for too large numbers ;-)
- float8 - it is problably a bug in the newlib C library - it has no
error message for numbers with exponent -400
- geometry - differences in precision of float numbers
- I have added appropriate lines into resultmap file
- I have modified the script regress.sh to use "case" statement when testing
the hostname. For cygwin the script is called with "i686-pc-cygwin" (on my
machine) as a parameter and this was not catched with the "if" statement.
The check was done for PORTNAME (win) and not HOSTNAME (i.86-pc-cygwin*).
The patch for described modifications is included.
All this modifications can be applied to "current" tree too.
The compilation was done on CygwinB20.1 with gcc 2.95, cygipc library 1.05.
The binaries were able to run also on the newest development snapshot
(2000-03-25).

1. C++ style comments in C source for ecpg ( // comment )
2. compiler finds wrong include file extern.h in ecpg/lib/descriptor.c
from
include path instead of workdir (rename it ?)
3. fe-connect getsockopt takes a socklen_t as fifth arg not int (use
SOCKET_SIZE_TYPE instead)
4. char vs unsigned char in psql calls to libpq
5. empty define that results in an empty but terminated line ( ; )
Now for all but point 3 I can supply changes to the
compiler flags, to make the compiler less pedantic.
Or is someone interested in the complications ?
in the meantime can someone apply the attached patch ?

We probably support a superset of the spec, but I don't have the spec
to confirm this.
Update regression tests to include tests for this format.
Update geometry.out with results from Linux RH 5.2 system
(for last decimal place).
We probably support a superset of the spec, but I don't have the spec

Update regression tests to include tests for this format.
Fix single-space typo in printed message in regress.sh.
after trying to resolve the item as an input-column name. This allows us
to be compliant with the SQL92 spec for queries that fall within the spec,
while still accepting the same out-of-spec queries as 6.5 did. You'll only
lose if there is an output column name that is the same as an input
column name, but doesn't refer to the same value. 7.0 will interpret
such a GROUP BY spec differently than 6.5 did. No way around that, because
6.5 was clearly not spec compliant.
Implement TIME WITH TIME ZONE type (timetz internal type).
Remap length() for character strings to CHAR_LENGTH() for SQL92
and to remove the ambiguity with geometric length() functions.
Keep length() for character strings for backward compatibility.
Shrink stored views by removing internal column name list from visible rte.
Implement min(), max() for time and timetz data types.
Implement conversion of TIME to INTERVAL.
Implement abs(), mod(), fac() for the int8 data type.
Rename some math functions to generic names:
round(), sqrt(), cbrt(), pow(), etc.
Rename NUMERIC power() function to pow().
Fix int2 factorial to calculate result in int4.
Enhance the Oracle compatibility function translate() to work with string
arguments (from Edwin Ramirez).
Modify pg_proc system table to remove OID holes.
The regression test script runcheck.sh doesn't seem able to
handle the blank line on the end of the resultmap file.
Here's a patch to remove it!!
Keith.
the to_char() source code is large, here are regression tests for
numeric/timestamp/int8 part. It is probably enough test for formatting
code in the formatting.c module. The others (float4/float8/int4) types
share this formatting code and eventual bugs for these types aren't
few probable.
Patch fix timestamp_to_char() for infinity/invalid timestamp too.
