This implements some of the JDBC2 methods, fixes a bug introduced into the

remaining shift/reduce conflict. But the very same conflict is in gram.y, so
I don't dig into it very much now.
Anyway, I just saw that there were minor changes made to ecpg by others. Now
I like that but I would prefer if I was told about that. Otherwise my
version numbering and Changelog maintaining might break. Or simply change
these too. :-)
Also I had to add #include <errno.h> to backend/libpq/pqcomprim.c to be

file containing the latest version of the JDBC driver, allowing it to be
compiled and used under JDK 1.2 and later.
NB: None (well almost none) of the new methods actually do anything. This
release only handles getting it to compile and run. Now this is done, I'll
start working on implementing the new stuff.
Now this tar file replaces everything under src/interfaces/jdbc. I had to
do it this way, rather than diffs, because most of the classes under the
postgresql subdirectory have moved to a new directory under that one, to
enable the support of the two JDBC standards.
Here's a list of files in the tar file. Any file not listed here (in the
postgresql directory) will have to be deleted, otherwise it could cause
the driver to fail:

missed before the release. It's simply a symbol that is undefined. This
patch defines this symbol in "win32.h", so it should have no effect on any
other platforms. It should go into 6.4.1 if possible, since compilation is
completely broken without it.
I am also attaching a patch for the "win32.mak" file - it leaves a file
behind when doing "make clean" after the library is built on Visual C++ 6.0.
This is not at all as urgent, but I don't see it breaking here, so I think
it might as well go in there too?

to include that file instead of having duplicate (and mostly incomplete)
copies of shared-library options. It works on HPUX, a lot better than it

These compilers will be needed if you wan to compile the libpg++

Here are patches needed to complie under AIX 4.2.
I changed configure.in, pqcomm.c, config.h.in, and fe-connect.c.
Also I had to install flex because lex did not want to translate pgc.l.
When importing an image into the database, the example now fires off a
new
Thread, which imports the image in the background. This also means that
the application doesn't freeze on the user, and they can still browse
the
images in the database, while the upload is running.
This now makes the ImageViewer a true example on how to use Threads (the
threadtest class is just that - a test).

important step towards making the driver compliant, and means that for
some Java applications and servlets, only a single database connection
is
needed, so in a sence this is a nice little show stopper for 6.4 (and
should still be backward compatible to 6.3.2).

Here are two new patches for the Win32 support.
1) The patch based on the one from Hiroshi Inoue [Inoue@tpf.co.jp], to
load
Winsock.dll from libpq.dll.
2) A patch for psql.c to remove the call to WSAStartup(), since it is
not
required when it's done in libpq.dll.
I'm still looking for the possibility of having a crypt() function in
libpq.dll too, the same way getopt was included. Any chance of getting
this
before 6.4, or should we wait for the next one?

compiler to
attempt to compile libpq++. The patches address the following problems:
1. In my first pass at changing the libpq++ makefile, I forgot to
include the
PORTNAME in the Makefile.in file.
2. The UnixWare 7 C++ compiler did not like the '-K alloca' option in
CXXFLAGS.
Billy G. Allie
1. The UnixWare tas macro was reformatted (by indent or it like?) which caused
it to break. The asm macro construct is very particular about the %mem
construct -- it has to start in column 1.
2. When compiling libpq++, g++ was used even if configure found the C++ com-
piler to be CC.
3. When compiling libpq++, '-Wno-error' was added to CXXFLAGS, even if the
compiler wasn't g++.
Billy G. Allie
structs from libpq-fe.h, as we previously discussed.
There turned out to be sloppy coding practices in more places than
I had realized :-(, but all in all I think it was a well-worth-while
exercise.
I ended up adding several routines to libpq's API in order to respond
to application requirements that were exposed by this work. I owe the
docs crew updates for libpq.sgml to describe these changes. I'm way too
tired to work on the docs tonight, however.
This is the last major change I intend to submit for 6.4. I do want
to see if I can make libpgtcl work with Tcl 8.0 before we go final,
but hopefully that will be a minor bug fix.
Here is a new patch for libpq, to make it work on Win32 again (since
the latest modifications broke it a little).
Please also add the file "libpq.rc" to the interfaces/libpq directory.
This will allow version-stamping of the generated DLL file, so that
automatic install programs (and interested users) can determine
the version of the file. The file is currently set as "prerelease".
Before the release, somebody should change the line "FILEFLAGS
VS_FF_PRERELEASE" to "FILEFLAGS 0". That information should probably
go into toos\RELEASE_CHANGES.
The patch is against the cvs as of ~ 1998-08-26 14:30 CEST.

Summary of changes:
In pqcomm.h, use the SUN_LEN macro if it is defined to calculate
the size of the sockaddr_un structure.
In unixware.h, drop the use of the UNIXWARE macro. Everything can
be handled with the USE_UNIVEL_CC and DISABLE_COMPLEX_MACRO macros.
In s_lock.h, remove the reference to the UNIXWARE macro (see above).
In the unixware template, add the YFLAGS:-d line.
In various makefile templates, add (or cleanup) unixware and univel
port specific information.

From: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>
Attached is a patch for this weekend's work on libpq. I've dealt
with several issues:
<for details: see message, in pgsql-patches archive for above data>
couple weeks ago on the hackers and interfaces lists:
1. When the backend sends a NOTICE message and closes the connection
(typically, because it was told to by the postmaster after
another backend coredumped), libpq will now print the notice
and close the connection cleanly. Formerly, the frontend app
would usually terminate ungracefully due to a SIGPIPE. (I am
not sure if 6.3.2 behaved that way, but the current cvs sources
do...)
2. libpq's various printouts to stderr are now fed through a single
"notice processor" routine, which can be overridden by the
application to direct notices someplace else. This should ease
porting libpq to Windows.
I also noticed and fixed a problem in PQprint: when sending output
to a pager subprocess, it would disable SIGPIPE in case the pager
terminates early (this is good) --- but afterwards it reset SIGPIPE
to SIG_DFL, rather than restoring the application's prior setting
(bad).

As Bruce mentioned, this is due to the conflict among changes we made.
Included patches should fix the problem(I changed all MB to
MULTIBYTE). Please let me know if you have further problem.
P.S. I did not include pathces to configure and gram.c to save the
file size(configure.in and gram.y modified).
From: t-ishii@sra.co.jp
Attached are patches to enhance the multi-byte support. (patches are
against 7/18 snapshot)
* determine encoding at initdb/createdb rather than compile time
Now initdb/createdb has an option to specify the encoding. Also, I
modified the syntax of CREATE DATABASE to accept encoding option. See
README.mb for more details.
For this purpose I have added new column "encoding" to pg_database.
Also pg_attribute and pg_class are changed to catch up the
modification to pg_database. Actually I haved added pg_database_mb.h,
pg_attribute_mb.h and pg_class_mb.h. These are used only when MB is
enabled. The reason having separate files is I couldn't find a way to
use ifdef or whatever in those files. I have to admit it looks
ugly. No way.
* support for PGCLIENTENCODING when issuing COPY command
commands/copy.c modified.
* support for SQL92 syntax "SET NAMES"
See gram.y.
* support for LATIN2-5
* add UNICODE regression test case
* new test suite for MB
New directory test/mb added.
* clean up source files
Basic idea is to have MB's own subdirectory for easier maintenance.
These are include/mb and backend/utils/mb.
The attached patches respond to discussion that was on pgsql-hackers
around the beginning of June (see thread "libpgtcl bug (and symptomatic
treatment)"). The changes are:
1. Remove code in connectDB that throws away the password after making
a connection. This doesn't really add much security IMHO --- a bad guy
with access to your client's address space can likely extract the
password anyway, to say nothing of what he might do directly. And
there's the serious shortcoming that it prevents PQreset() from working
if the database requires a password.
2. Fix coredump problem: fe_sendauth did not guard against being handed
a NULL password pointer. (This is the proximate cause of the coredump-
during-PQreset problem that Magosanyi Arpad complained of last month.)
3. Remove highly questionable "error recovery" logic in libpgtcl's
pg_exec statement.
I believe the consensus of the discussion last month was in favor of
#1 and #3, but I'm just now getting around to making the change.
I realized that #2 was a bug in process of looking at the change.
Making PQrequestCancel safe to call in a signal handler turned out to be
much easier than I feared. So here are the diffs.
Some notes:
* I modified the postmaster's packet "iodone" callback interface to allow
the callback routine to return a continue-or-drop-connection return
code; this was necessary to allow the connection to be closed after
receiving a Cancel, rather than proceeding to launch a new backend...
Being a neatnik, I also made the iodone proc have a typechecked
parameter list.
* I deleted all code I could find that had to do with OOB.
* I made some edits to ensure that all signals mentioned in the code
are referred to symbolically not by numbers ("SIGUSR2" not "2").
I think Bruce may have already done at least some of the same edits;
I hope that merging these patches is not too painful.

Through some minor changes, I have been able to compile the libpq
client libraries on the Win32 platform. Since the libpq communications
part has been rewritten, this has become much easier. Enclosed is
a patch that will allow at least Microsoft Visual C++ to compile
libpq into both a static and a dynamic library. I will take a look
at porting the psql frontend as well, but I figured it was a good
idea to send in these patches first - so no major changes are done
to the files before it gets applied (if it does).

Magnus Hagander
I have implemented a framework of encoding translation between the
backend and the frontend. Also I have added a new variable setting
command:
SET CLIENT_ENCODING TO 'encoding';
Other features include:
Latin1 support more 8 bit cleaness

pg_notifies statement is eliminated, and callbacks defined by
pg_listen are instead invoked automatically from the Tcl idle loop
whenever a NOTIFY message is received.
I have done only cursory testing, so there may be problems still
lurking (particularly on non-Unix machines?). But it seems to
work.
Patch is against today's cvs sources. Note that this will not work
with the 6.3.2 release since it depends on the new libpq.
The diffs are a bit large so I've gzipped them. A patch to update
libpgtcl.sgml is included too.

1. Rewritten libpq to allow asynchronous clients.
2. Implemented client side of cancel protocol in library,
and patched psql.c to send a cancel request upon SIGINT. The
backend doesn't notice it yet :-(
3. Implemented 'Z' protocol message addition and renaming of
copy in/out start messages. These are implemented conditionally,
ie, the client protocol version is checked; so the code should
still work with 1.0 clients.
4. Revised protocol and libpq sgml documents (don't have an SGML
compiler, though, so there may be some markup glitches here).
What remains to be done:
1. Implement addition of atttypmod field to RowDescriptor messages.
The client-side code is there but ifdef'd out. I have no idea
what to change on the backend side. The field should be sent
only if protocol >= 2.0, of course.
2. Implement backend response to cancel requests received as OOB
messages. (This prolly need not be conditional on protocol
version; just do it if you get SIGURG.)
3. Update libpq.3. (I'm hoping this can be generated mechanically
from libpq.sgml... if not, will do it by hand.) Is there any
other doco to fix?
4. Update non-libpq interfaces as necessary. I patched libpgtcl
so that it would compile, but haven't tested it. Dunno what
needs to be done with the other interfaces.
Have at it!

If PQfn() receives NOTICEs from the backend, it fails because there is no
provision to deal with them.
This patch (supplied by Anders Hammarquist <iko@netg.se> to me as Debian
maintainer of postgresql) cures the problem:
HP-UX (all versions) requires shared libraries to have execute
permission, and really needs them to be exactly mode 555 for
performance reasons. The standard configure/install procedure
installs libpq.sl as mode 644, which DOES NOT WORK.
The attached patch modifies the makefiles to distinguish
