already fixed by You. However there were a few left and attached patch
should fix the rest of them.
I used StringInfo only in 2 places and both of them are inside debug
ifdefs. Only performance penalty will come from using strlen() like all
the other code does.
I also modified some of the already patched parts by changing
snprintf(buf, 2 * BUFSIZE, ... style lines to
snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), ... where buf is an array.

is that if you are i n a ifdef block, you get a wrong error telling you
that a endif is missing.
This patch corrects pgc.l and also adds a test of this problem to
test1.pgc. To convince you apply the patch to test1.pgc first then try
to compile the test the n apply the patch to pgc.l.
The patch moves the test of the scope of an ifdef block to the end of

o Change all current CVS messages of NOTICE to WARNING. We were going
to do this just before 7.3 beta but it has to be done now, as you will
see below.
o Change current INFO messages that should be controlled by
client_min_messages to NOTICE.
o Force remaining INFO messages, like from EXPLAIN, VACUUM VERBOSE, etc.
to always go to the client.
o Remove INFO from the client_min_messages options and add NOTICE.
Seems we do need three non-ERROR elog levels to handle the various
behaviors we need for these messages.
Regression passed.

- Fixed bug in ecpglib causing indicator to list the size of the

My patch doesn't loose the option, it's never been passed on anyway:
opt_with_grant: WITH GRANT OPTION
{
mmerror(ET_ERROR, "WITH GRANT OPTION is not supported. Only relation owners can
set privileges");
}
| /*EMPTY*/
;
The existing code in ecpg/preproc/preproc.y to handle the WITH option
simply throws an error and aborts the processing... The patch below
prevents the segfault and also passes on the WITH option to the
backend, probably a better fix.

a separate statement (though it can still be invoked as part of VACUUM, too).
pg_statistic redesigned to be more flexible about what statistics are
stored. ANALYZE now collects a list of several of the most common values,
not just one, plus a histogram (not just the min and max values). Random
sampling is used to make the process reasonably fast even on very large
tables. The number of values and histogram bins collected is now
user-settable via an ALTER TABLE command.
There is more still to do; the new stats are not being used everywhere
they could be in the planner. But the remaining changes for this project
should be localized, and the behavior is already better than before.
A not-very-related change is that sorting now makes use of btree comparison
routines if it can find one, rather than invoking '<' twice.

rules ('A'-'Z'->'a'-'z' and nothing else). However, once a word is

to be the primary include files for backend .c files and frontend .c files
respectively. By default, only include files meant for frontend use are
installed into the installation include directory. There is a new make
target 'make install-all-headers' that adds the whole content of the
src/include tree to the installed fileset, for use by people who want to
develop server-side code without keeping the complete source tree on hand.

with an interrupt that might happen anywhere. See pghackers discussion

and revert documentation to describe the existing INHERITS clause
instead, per recent discussion in pghackers. Also fix implementation
of SQL_inheritance SET variable: it is not cool to look at this var
during the initial parsing phase, only during parse_analyze(). See
recent bug report concerning misinterpretation of date constants just
after a SET TIMEZONE command. gram.y really has to be an invariant
transformation of the query string to a raw parsetree; anything that
can vary with time must be done during parse analysis.
The leak is caused by the memory allocation in
src/interfaces/ecpg/lib/execute.c in line 669 which is never freed.
Adding a "free(array_query);" after PQexec in line 671 seems to fix the
leak.

DESTDIR=/else/where' and prepends the value of DESTDIR to the full
installation paths (e.g., /else/where/usr/local/pgsql/bin). This allows
users to install the package into a location different from the one that
was configured and hard-coded into various scripts, e.g., for creating
binary packages.
DESTDIR is in many cases preferrable over `make install
prefix=/else/where' because
a) `prefix' affects the path that is hard-coded into the files, which can
lead to a `make install prefix=xxx' (as done by the regression test
driver) corrupting the files in the source tree with wrong paths.
b) it doesn't work at all if a directory was overridden to not depend on
`prefix', e.g., --sysconfdir=/etc.
(Updating the regression test driver to use DESTDIR is a separate
undertaking.)

CPP) to create platform independent files. Unfortunately, that means that
every config.status (or configure) run invariably causes a relink of the
postmaster and also that we can't put these files in the distribution
(usefully). So we make it a little smarter: when the output files already
exist and it notices that it would recreate them in identical form, it
doesn't touch them. In order to avoid re-running the make rule all the time
we update a timestamp file instead.
Update release_prep accordingly. Also make Gen_fmgrtab.sh use the awk that

1) adds NetBSD shared lib support on both ELF and a.out platforms
2) replaces "-L$(LIBPQDIR) -lpq" with "$(LIBPQ)" defined in
Makefile.global. This makes it much easier to build stuff in
the source tree after you've already installed the libraries.
3) adds TEMPLATEDIR in Makefile.global that indicates where the
database templates are stored. This separates the template files
from real libraries that are installed in $(LIBDIR).
4) changes include order of <readline/readline.h> and <readline.h>.
The latest GNU readline installs its headers under a readline
subdirectory.
In addition to applying the patch below the following files need to be copied:

a ".pgc " extension. The second patch fixes a coredump when there is
more than one input file (in that case, cur and types were not set to
NULL before processing the second f ile)
The patch below modifies the accepted grammar of ecpg to accept
FETCH [direction] [amount] cursor name
i.e. the IN|FROM clause becomes optional (as in Oracle and Informix).
This removes the incompatibility mentioned in section "Porting From
Other RDBMS Packages" p169, PostgreSQL Programmer's Guide. The grammar
is modified in such a way as to avoid shift/reduce conflicts. It does
not accept the statement "EXEC SQL FETCH;" anymore, as the old grammar
did (this seems to be a bug of the old grammar anyway).
This patch cleans up the handling of space characters in the scanner;
some patte rns require \n to be in {space}, some do not. A second fix is
the handling of cpp continuati on lines; the old pattern did not match
these. The parser is patched to fix an off-by-one error in the #line
directives. The pa rser is also enhanced to report the correct location
of errors in declarations in the "E XEC SQL DECLARE SECTION". Finally,
some right recursions in the parser were replaced by left-recursions.
This patch adds preprocessor directives to ecpg; in particular
EXEC SQL IFDEF, EXEC SQL IFNDEF, EXEC SQL ELSE, EXEC SQL ELIF and EXEC SQL ENDIF
"EXEC SQL IFDEF" is used with defines made with "EXEC SQL DEFINE" and
defines, specified on the command line with -D. Defines, specified on
the command line are persistent across multiple input files. Defines can
be nested up to a maximum level of 128 (see patch). There is a fair
amount of error checking to make sure directives are matched properly. I
need preprocessor directives for porting code, that is written for an
Informix database, to a PostgreSQL database, while maintaining
compatibility with the original code. I decided not to extend the
already large ecpg grammar. Everything is done in the scanner by adding
some states, e.g. to skip all input except newlines and directives. The
preprocessor commands are compatible with Informix. Oracle uses a cpp
replacement.

functions. One problem that I have encountered with the function
manager is that it does not allow the user to define type conversion
functions that convert between user types. For instance if mytype1,
mytype2, and mytype3 are three Postgresql user types, and if I wish to
define Postgresql conversion functions like
I run into problems, because the Postgresql dynamic loader would look
for a single link symbol, mytype3, for both pieces of object code. If
I just change the name of one of the Postgresql functions (to make the
symbols distinct), the automatic type conversion that Postgresql uses,
for example, when matching operators to arguments no longer finds the
type conversion function.
The solution that I propose, and have implemented in the attatched
patch extends the CREATE FUNCTION syntax as follows. In the first case
above I use the link symbol mytype2_to_mytype3 for the link object
that implements the first conversion function, and define the
Postgresql operator with the following syntax
The patch includes changes to the parser to include the altered
syntax, changes to the ProcedureStmt node in nodes/parsenodes.h,
changes to commands/define.c to handle the extra information in the AS
clause, and changes to utils/fmgr/dfmgr.c that alter the way that the
dynamic loader figures out what link symbol to use. I store the
string for the link symbol in the prosrc text attribute of the pg_proc
table which is currently unused in rows that reference dynamically
loaded
functions.

Two patches included:
- the first one enables the use of bool variables in fields which might
become NULL.
Up to now the lib told you that NULL is not a bool variable, even if
you provide a indicator.
- the second patch checks whether a value is null and issues an error if
no indicator is provided.
Sidenote: IIRC, the variable should be left alone if the value is NULL.
ECPGlib sets it's value to 0 on NULL. Is this a violation of the
standard?
