databases with encodings that are incompatible with the server's LC_CTYPE
locale, when we can determine that (which we can on most modern platforms,
I believe). C/POSIX locale is compatible with all encodings, of course,
so there is still some usefulness to CREATE DATABASE's ENCODING option,
but this will insulate us against all sorts of recurring complaints
caused by mismatched settings.
I moved initdb's existing LC_CTYPE-to-encoding mapping knowledge into
a new src/port/ file so it could be shared by CREATE DATABASE.

Patch from Magnus Hagander, editorialized by me.
FormatMessage() (This should have been in 8.2.0, patched to 8.2.X and
HEAD):
I think this problem to be complex....
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-11/msg00042.php
FormatMessage of windows cannot consider the encoding of the database.
However, I should try the solution now. It is necessary to clear the
problem.
Multi character-code exists together in message and log. It doesn't
consider
the data base encoding that the user intended....
The user in multi-byte country can try this.

it fails to rename an old xlog segment up to a future slot, it will
unlink the segment instead. Per discussion of bug #2712, in which it

repeatedly. Now that we don't have to worry about memory leaks from
glibc's qsort, we can safely put CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS into the tuplesort
comparators, as was requested a couple months ago. Also, get rid of
non-reentrancy and an extra level of function call in tuplesort.c by
providing a variant qsort_arg() API that passes an extra void * argument
through to the comparison routine. (We might want to use that in other
places too, I didn't look yet.)

pg_usleep at all. Instead call the replacement function in
port/win32/signal.c by that name. Avoids tricky macro-redefinition

no one can accidentally use the non-signal-aware version of pg_usleep
in a Windows backend.

Fix for different getaddrinfo structure ordering on Win32 for IPv6.

After updating to the latest cvs, and also building most of the addons
(like PLs), the following patch is neededf for win32 + Visual C++.
* Switch to use the new win32 semaphore code
* Rename win32_open to pgwin32_open. win32_open collides with symbols
defined in Perl. MingW didn't detect ig, MSVC did. And it's a bit too
generic a name to export globally, imho...
* Python defines some partially broken #pragmas in the headers when
doing a debug build. Workaround.

places --- that risks corrupting data structures, losing sync with the
backend, etc. We now longjmp only from calls to readline, fgets, and
fread, which we assume are coded to protect themselves against interrupts
at undesirable times. This requires adding explicit tests for
cancel_pressed in long-running loops, but on the whole it's far cleaner.

the logic it contained to switch to insertion sort for near-sorted input was
in fact a big loss, because it could fairly easily be fooled into applying
insertion sort to large subfiles that weren't all that well ordered. Remove
that, and instead add a simple check for already-perfectly-sorted input, as
per suggestion from Dann Corbit. This adds at worst O(N*lgN) overhead, and
usually far less, while sometimes allowing a subfile sort to finish in O(N)
time. Preliminary testing says this is an improvement over the basic
Bentley & McIlroy code for many nonrandom inputs, and it costs almost
nothing when the input is random.

differ by more than the last directory component. Instead of insisting
that they match up to the last component, accept whatever common prefix
they have, and try to replace the non-matching part of bin_path with
the non-matching part of target_path in the actual executable's path.
In one way this is tighter than the old code, because it insists on
a match to the part of bin_path we want to substitute for, rather than
blindly stripping one directory component from the executable's path.

I have the problem, when building by MS-VC6.
An error occurs in the 8.1.0 present source codes.
nmake -f win32.mak
..\..\port\getaddrinfo.c(244) : error C2065: 'WSA_NOT_ENOUGH_MEMORY'
..\..\port\getaddrinfo.c(342) : error C2065: 'WSATYPE_NOT_FOUND'
This is used by winsock2.h. However, Construction of a windows base is
winsock.h.
Then, Since MinGW has special environment, this is right. but, it is not
found in VC6.
Furthermore, in getaddrinfo.c, IPV6-API is used by
LoadLibraryA("ws2_32");
Referring to of dll the external memory generates this violation by VC6
specification.
I considered whether the whole should have been converted into winsock2.
However, Now, DLL of MinGW creation operates wonderfully as it is.
That's right, it has pliability by replacement of simple DLL.
Then, I propose the system using winsock(non IPV6) in construction of
VC6.

incorrect implementation of argument reordering, arbitrary limit of output

the separately-configurable path names, but that was on TODO anyway.
of special case for Windows port. Put a PG_TRY around most of createdb()
to ensure that we remove copied subdirectories on failure, even if the
failure happens while creating the pg_database row. (I think this explains
Oliver Siegmar's recent report.) Having done that, there's no need for
the fragile assumption that copydir() mustn't ereport(ERROR), so simplify
its API. Eliminate the old code that used system("cp ...") to copy
subdirectories, in favor of using copydir() on all platforms. This not
only should allow much better error reporting, but allows us to fsync
the created files before trusting that the copy has succeeded.
The first rule of portability for us is 'thou shalt have no other gods
before c.h', and a whole lot of these files were either not including
c.h at all, or including random system headers beforehand, either of
which sins can mess up largefile support nicely. Once you have
included c.h, there is no need to re-include what it includes, either.

we perfer o_datasync to fsync.
Also, change Win32 fsync to a new wal sync method called

what is used for fsync on Win32.

Finally, pickup an upstream fix to crypt.c (const-ify some arrays).
Fix TablespaceCreateDbspace() to be able to create a dummy directory
in place of a dropped tablespace's symlink. This eliminates the open

significant improvement in the usability of PITR replay.

pgport library installation so that it goes to libdir instead of

and doesn't process forward slashes in the same way as external
commands. Quoting the first argument to COPY does not convert forward
to backward slashes, but COPY does properly process quoted forward
slashes in the second argument.
Win32 COPY works with quoted forward slashes in the first argument only if the
current directory is the same as the directory of the first argument.
of '.' or '..'. Extend canonicalize_path() to trim off trailing occurrences
of these things, and use it to fix up paths where needed (which I think is
only after places where we trim the last path component, but maybe some
others will turn up). Fixes Josh's complaint that './initdb' does not
work.
CurrentMemoryContext is DLLIMPORT on Win32. Work around that by
creating stubs in the backend for palloc/pstrdup.
Also fix pg_dumpall to do proper quoting on Win32.

call fails when it does. (As it is now, there is no way to figure out
the point of error). Shouldn't be a problem since it's most defintily
not a performance-critical path (only called on pgstat startup ATM).
This should help us debug the pipe error message that's on the win32
status page (which I myself have never been able to reproduce, and thus
haven't figured out a better way to debug yet)

extensive change then what was suggested. I found the file path.c that
contained a lot of "Unix/Windows" agnostic functions so I added a function
there instead and removed the PATHSEP declaration in exec.c altogether. All
to keep things from scattering all over the code.
I also took the liberty of changing the name of the functions
"first_path_sep" and "last_path_sep". Where I come from (and I'm apparently
not alone given the former macro name PATHSEP), they should be called
"first_dir_sep" and "last_dir_sep". The new function I introduced, that
actually finds path separators, is now the "first_path_sep". The patch
contains changes on all affected places of course.
I also changed the documentation on dynamic_library_path to reflect the
chagnes.

The patch also adds code to our client apps so we set the environment
variable directly based on our binary location, unless it is already
set. This will allow our applications to emit proper locale messages
that are generated in libpq.
