81efc82608 This patch fixes a minor inaccuracy in the documentation: NOT NULL is
not synonymous with CHECK (xxx IS NOT NULL) -- for example, consider
ALTER TABLE ADD PRIMARY KEY, which checks for 'NOT NULL', not a check
constraint.

a12b4e279b I checked all the previous string handling errors and most of them were
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.

e82bcba5e0 Here's a doc patch for the new string functions recently committed --
replace, split, and to_hex. The patch also moves encode and decode into
alphabetical order (since everything else in the table was).

c7a165adc6 Code review for HeapTupleHeader changes. Add version number to page headers
(overlaying low byte of page size) and add HEAP_HASOID bit to t_infomask,
per earlier discussion.  Simplify scheme for overlaying fields in tuple
header (no need for cmax to live in more than one place).  Don't try to
clear infomask status bits in tqual.c --- not safe to do it there.  Don't
try to force output table of a SELECT INTO to have OIDs, either.  Get rid
of unnecessarily complex three-state scheme for TupleDesc.tdhasoids, which
has already caused one recent failure.  Improve documentation.

1bab464eb4 Code review for pg_locks feature. Make shmemoffset of PROCLOCK structs
available (else there's no way to interpret the list links).  Change
pg_locks view to show transaction ID locks separately from ordinary
relation locks.  Avoid showing N duplicate rows when the same lock is
held multiple times (seems unlikely that users care about exact hold
count).  Improve documentation.

9c279355fb Updates to reflect availability of autocommit option. 2002-08-30 22:45:25 +00:00
Tom Lane
26993b2918 AUTOCOMMIT mode is now an available backend GUC variable; setting it
to false provides more SQL-spec-compliant behavior than we had before.
I am not sure that setting it false is actually a good idea yet; there
is a lot of client-side code that will probably be broken by turning
autocommit off.  But it's a start.

Loosely based on a patch by David Van Wie.

e4186762ff Adjust nodeFunctionscan.c to reset transient memory context between calls
to the table function, thus preventing memory leakage accumulation across
calls.  This means that SRFs need to be careful to distinguish permanent
and local storage; adjust code and documentation accordingly.  Patch by
Joe Conway, very minor tweaks by Tom Lane.

99fd5cbd41 FOUND patch was a bit over-enthusiastic: SQL commands that are not
INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE shouldn't change FOUND.  IMHO anyway.
Also, try to make documentation a little clearer.

e0a77f56e3 Cleanup of SGML 2002-08-27 03:55:17 +00:00
Bruce Momjian
c0ad595386 I attach a little patch to make CLUSTER set and reset the indisclustered
bit on the indexes.

I also attach clusterdb and clusterdb.sgml; both of them are blatant
rips of vacuumdb and vacuumdb.sgml, but get the job done.  Please review
them, as I'm probably making a lot of mistakes with SGML and I can't
compile it here.

vacuumdb itself is not very comfortable to use when the databases have
passwords, because it has to connect once for each table (I can probably
make it connect only once for each database; should I?).  Because of
this I added a mention of PGPASSWORDFILE in the documentation, but I
don't know if that is the correct place for that.
