a failed index build would roll back the transaction leaving an unused
index file, but for rebuilding shared system indexes this seems to add
some useful protection.
Before patch:

pg_get_constraintdef

CHECK (VALUE >= 0)
CHECK ((((a)::text = 'asdf'::text) OR ((a)::text = 'fdsa'::text)) OR
((a)::text = 'dfd'::text))
PRIMARY KEY (b)
FOREIGN KEY (a) REFERENCES test2(b)
UNIQUE (b)
(5 rows)
test=# select pg_get_constraintdef(oid, true) from pg_constraint;
pg_get_constraintdef
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHECK VALUE >= 0
CHECK a::text = 'asdf'::text OR a::text = 'fdsa'::text OR a::text =
'dfd'::text
PRIMARY KEY (b)
FOREIGN KEY (a) REFERENCES test2(b)
UNIQUE (b)
(5 rows)
After patch:
test=# select pg_get_constraintdef(oid) from pg_constraint;
pg_get_constraintdef
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHECK (VALUE >= 0)
CHECK ((((a)::text = 'asdf'::text) OR ((a)::text = 'fdsa'::text)) OR
((a)::text = 'dfd'::text))
PRIMARY KEY (b)
FOREIGN KEY (a) REFERENCES test2(b)
UNIQUE (b)
(5 rows)
test=# select pg_get_constraintdef(oid, true) from pg_constraint;
pg_get_constraintdef

'dfd'::text)
PRIMARY KEY (b)
FOREIGN KEY (a) REFERENCES test2(b)

It's important that those brackets are there to (a) match all other
constraints and (b) so that people can just copy and paste them and it
will work as SQL.

Attached are two patches:
- installdoc.patch contains an additional paragraph on the win32 console
codepage for the chapter "Installation on Windows"
Due to a lack of SGML-tools, I have only edited the text and not tested
the SGML code - please check it before merging into the CVS branch.
- psqlcodepage.patch adds the warning about a problematic codepage to psql.

to be less dangerous, and often faster as well. ExprState trees are
not kept across transaction boundaries; this eliminates problems with
resource leakage in failed transactions. But by keeping them in a
per-transaction EState, we can safely arrange for a single ExprState
to be shared by all the expression evaluations done in a given plpgsql
function call. (Formerly it seemed necessary to create and destroy an
ExprState for each exec_eval_simple_expr() call.) This saves time in
any scenario where a plpgsql function executes more than one expression.
Seems to be about as fast as 7.3 for simple cases, and significantly
faster for functions that do a lot of calculations.

now able to cope with assigning new relfilenode values to nailed-in-cache
indexes, so they can be reindexed using the fully crash-safe method. This
leaves only shared system indexes as special cases. Remove the 'index
deactivation' code, since it provides no useful protection in the shared-
index case. Require reindexing of shared indexes to be done in standalone
mode, but remove other restrictions on REINDEX. -P (IgnoreSystemIndexes)
now prevents using indexes for lookups, but does not disable index updates.
It is therefore safe to allow from PGOPTIONS. Upshot: reindexing system catalogs
can be done without a standalone backend for all cases except
shared catalogs.

the speed of transfers to and from kernel space, at least on recent
Pentiums, and might help other CPUs too. We should look at making
this happen for local buffers and buffile.c too. Patch from Manfred Spraul.
Per recent discussion, this does not work because other backends can't
reliably see tuples in a temp table and so cannot run the RI checks
correctly. Seems better to disallow this case than go back to accessing
temp tables through shared buffers. Also, disallow FK references to

really general fix might be difficult, I believe the only case where
AtCommit_Notify could see an uncommitted tuple is where the other guy
has just unlistened and not yet committed. The best solution seems to
be to just skip updating that tuple, on the assumption that the other
guy does not want to hear about the notification anyway. This is not
perfect --- if the other guy rolls back his unlisten instead of committing,
then he really should have gotten this notify. But to do that, we'd have
to wait to see if he commits or not, or make UNLISTEN hold exclusive lock
on pg_listener until commit. Either of these answers is deadlock-prone,
not to mention horrible for interactive performance. Do it this way
for now. (What happened to that project to do LISTEN/NOTIFY in memory
with no table, anyway?)

support to the jdbc driver.
That patch needed some work: it assumed the sqlcode in a server message was
fixed in its position, the patch lost the ability to pass exceptions, and the
patch missed a couple of places where server errors where being received.
In addition to fixing the above, I also added full support for the V3 protocol
error message syntax, I reversed the order of arguments in the PSQLException
constructor to more closely follow the constructors for SQLException, I changed
the new constructors that take PSQLState to take Object for additional
parameters as the old ones did.
Still todo are to add SQLState values to all existing exceptions thrown in the
driver and add support for parsing the V3 protocol format for notices.
