August 1994 draft standard.
Use the ecpg support libraries to write the CLI interface?
Date and Darwen claim that CLI is a more modern and flexible approach...

PgDatabase::DisplayTuples and PgDatabase::PrintTuples. This is incorrect
according to strict interpretation of the C++ spec, and some compilers
will reject it. Also silence g++ warning about unused parameter.
the ecpg Makefiles use a variable DESTDIR which is never defined
except by debian/rules makefile, in which case the ecpg makefiles
expand wrong pathnames. If we want to support a DESTDIR root it
must be done consistently in all the makefiles, not just in ecpg.

do the right thing: look for a NOTICE message from the backend before we
close our side of the socket. 6.4 libpq did not reliably print the backend's
hara-kiri message, 'The Postmaster has informed me ...', because it only
did the right thing if connection closure was detected during a read
attempt instead of a write attempt.
this file in interfaces/
It will all need to be checked in. I used the char *rcsid[] method for
cvs ids so it can be strings | grep'd to find version numbers. The new
version for the library is 3.0.
Run configure from src/ to create the Makefile and it should be good to
go.
I did minimal documentation references in the README, I'll see if I can
get something to Tom Lockhart rather quickly.

on connection. This patch changes it to use PQconnectdb rather than
{fe_setauthsvc,PQsetdb}. This still isn't the complete solution, as
there
is no provision for user,password in class PgEnv, but it does get rid of
the error message. Tested with gcc version egcs-2.91.60 19981201
(egcs-1.1.1 release) under NetBSD-1.3K/i386.

been applied. The patches are in the .tar.gz attachment at the end:
varchar-array.patch this patch adds support for arrays of bpchar() and
varchar(), which where always missing from postgres.
These datatypes can be used to replace the _char4,
_char8, etc., which were dropped some time ago.
block-size.patch this patch fixes many errors in the parser and other
program which happen with very large query statements
(> 8K) when using a page size larger than 8192.
This patch is needed if you want to submit queries
larger than 8K. Postgres supports tuples up to 32K
but you can't insert them because you can't submit
queries larger than 8K. My patch fixes this problem.
The patch also replaces all the occurrences of `8192'
and `1<<13' in the sources with the proper constants
defined in include files. You should now never find
8192 hardwired in C code, just to make code clearer.

change functionality, but makes the code more ANSI C'ish.
My AIX xlc compiler barfs on all of these. Can someone please
review and apply to current.
<<port.patch>>
Thanks

would be a Bad Thing.
For what it's worth, I found another case in libpq where you can get a T
message without a D that my utility patch needs to handle. I have
attached
the updated patch against the 6.4.2 version of
src/interfaces/libpq/fe-exec.c
Jerry Gay
Just in case you'd like to see what I was talking about, I am
attaching
my patch to src/interfaces/libpq/fe-exec.c to prevent utility functions
called from SPI from locking up the client.

working with postgresql-6.4.2 and KTH-KRB Ebones
(http://www.pdc.kth.se/kth-kr
b) on a dec alpha running DU 4.0D using the native compiler. The
following
patch does the trick.
The rationale behind this is as follows. The KTH-KRB code header files
defines
lots of lengths like INST_SZ,REALM_SZ and KRB_SENDAUTH_VLEN. It also has
a
habit of doing things like
chararray[LENGTH] = '\0'
to ensure null terminated strings. In my instance this just happens to
blat
the kerberos principal instance string leading to error like
pg_krb4_recvauth: kerberos error: Can't decode authenticator
(krb_rd_req
)
The application code that comes with KTH-KRB uses "KRB_SENDAUTH_VLEN +
1" and
sometimes uses "INST_SZ + 1" so it seems safest to put that 1 char
buffer in
the appropriate place.

the handling of negative numbers and commas. The attached path attempts
to fix these.
However the getValue method does not yet insert commas into the
generated string.
Also in getValue there is an incorrect assumption that the currency
symbol is '$', it should of course be '£'!. I have no idea on how to go
about fixing this one.

palloc.h again. Move exporting of backend header files out of libpq's
Makefile (whatever was it doing there in the first place?) and into
backend/Makefile.

Ok. I made patches replacing all of "#if FALSE" or "#if 0" to "#ifdef
NOT_USED" for current. I have tested these patches in that the
postgres binaries are identical.
