amalgamation of patches submitted by Helge Bahmann and Oliver Elphick,
with some editorializing by yours truly.
when built against readline 4.2. Specifically, it handles the deprecation
of
filename_completion_function()
with preference for
rl_filename_completion_function()
Although, I was motivated by Cygwin support, IMO this patch is appropriate
for all platforms. To quote from the readline source:
#if 0
/* Backwards compatibility (compat.c). These will go away sometime. */
...
extern READLINE_EXPORT(char, *filename_completion_function) ...
#endif
Note that this patch is modeled after the one by Peter Eisentraut for
completion_matches():
http://www.ca.postgresql.org/~petere/readline42.html
I tested this patch under the following environments:
Cygwin with readline 4.1
Cygwin with readline 4.2
Linux with readline 2.2.1
Linux with readline 4.2
and it behaved as expected.

Use --enable-nls to turn it on; see installation instructions for details.
See developer's guide how to make use of it in programs and how to add
translations.
psql sources have been almost fully prepared and an incomplete German
translation has been provided. In the backend, only elog() calls are
currently translatable, and the provided German translation file is more
of a placeholder.
ELF capability.
While this is true to some extent, this assumption makes it impossible
to compile PostgreSQL 7.1 and 7.2devel without the --disable-shared
switch during configuration.

enables pltcl unknown support.
Also it adds substituting of tclsh with tclsh that was by configure in
pltcl_*mod scripts. For example, On freebsd, tclsh can be called
tclsh8.2 or
tclsh8.3 depending on installed version of Tcl.
After patching files
src/pl/tcl/modules/pltcl_listmod
src/pl/tcl/modules/pltcl_loadmod
src/pl/tcl/modules/pltcl_delmod
must be renamed(copied,repocopied) to

generate a new Changelog from rc4, which is nice and short ... one python
interface change
tag configure as 7.1, for generating the packages ...
This is it folks ... Release 7.1 is officially here ...
accepts nnnLL syntax for long long constants. If so, decorate the CRC64
constants with LL to avoid warnings and/or erroneous results from certain
non-standards-compliant compilers.
(said redirection required when run).
After checking using cvsweb, removed the offending conflict.
Rebuilt configure using autoconf, and it now works fine.
bits in JDBC & the first set of tools into contrib.
This is the third, and deals with enabling JDBC to be compiled with the main
source.
What it does is add a new option to configure: --with-java
This option tells configure to look for ant (our build tool of choice) and
if found, it then compiles both the JDBC driver and the new tools as part
of the normal make.
Also, when the postgresql install is done, all the .jar files are also
installed into the ${PGLIB}/java directory (thought best to keep then separate)
Now I had some conflicts when this applied so could someone please double check
that everything is ok?

waste of cycles on single-CPU machines, and of dubious utility on multi-CPU
machines too.
Tweak s_lock_stuck so that caller can specify timeout interval, and
increase interval before declaring stuck spinlock for buffer locks and XLOG
locks.
On systems that have fdatasync(), use that rather than fsync() to sync WAL
log writes. Ensure that WAL file is entirely allocated during XLogFileInit.
eliminates a raft of portability issues, including whether sys_nerr
exists, whether the platform has any valid negative errnos, etc. The
downside is minimal: errno shouldn't ever contain an invalid value anyway,
and if it does, reasonably modern versions of strerror will not choke.
This rangecheck idea seemed good at the time, but it's clearly a net loss,
and I apologize to all concerned for having ever put it in.
large-ish bugs that Tom and Vadim were able to fix, but to avoid any
confusion, beta2 was removed ... and for tag'ng purposes, beta3 is being
created ...
1. Distinguish cases where a Datum representing a tuple datatype is an OID
from cases where it is a pointer to TupleTableSlot, and make sure we use
the right typlen in each case.
2. Make fetchatt() and related code support 8-byte by-value datatypes on
machines where Datum is 8 bytes. Centralize knowledge of the available
by-value datatype sizes in two macros in tupmacs.h, so that this will be
easier if we ever have to do it again.
socket file, in favor of having an ordinary lockfile beside the socket file.
Clean up a few robustness problems in the lockfile code. If postmaster is
going to reject a connection request based on database state, it will now
tell you so before authentication exchange not after. (Of course, a failure
after is still possible if conditions change meanwhile, but this makes life
easier for a yet-to-be-written pg_ping utility.)
but take it as 'int *' instead.
Add real test for whether ld -R works on Unixware.
Rename --enable-uniconv to --enable-unicode-conversion.
Install shlibs mode 755 by default, since 644 causes gratuitous complaints
from ldd et al. on some systems.
included, and then include <strings.h> if so. Several systems already
needed <strings.h> anyway. Some new systems that claim to conform to the
Unix 9x "standard" do not declare str[n]casemp() in string.h, and C99
compilers will not like that.
Bruce Hartzler <bruceh@mail.utexas.edu>. It contains shared library
support, regression test map, and the usual template files. The dynamic
loader is missing, the spin lock code apparently doesn't assemble due to
syntax problems, and semaphores are to be hoped for from Apple.
code conversion between Unicode and other encodings. Note that
this option requires --enable-multibyte also.
The reason why this is optional is that the feature requires huge
mapping tables and I don't think every user need the feature.
path into executables and shared libraries (-rpath or -R for most). Can be
disabled with --disable-rpath, since some binary packaging standards do not
like this option.
the -l options. (This was not the case when using the OpenSSL or Kerberos
options.) Also make sure that shared library links get to see all the -L
options. Get Kerberos 5 support to compile on Redhat 7.0. Add OpenSSL and
-lsocket (if used/found) to libpq link.
particular, allow linking with arbitrary commands rather than only $(AR) or
$(LD), and treat C++ without hacks.
Add option to disable shared libraries. This takes the place of the
BSD_SHLIB variable. The regression test driver ignores the plpgsql test
if there are no shared libraries available.
Makefile.port, since they are of no use to configure and much of the
library magic happens in Makefile.port anyway.
Use __alpha, not __alpha__, since the former is universally available.
Remove -DNOFIXADE from the compile command line and put it in the port
include file.
source directory. This involves mostly makefiles using $(srcdir) when they
might have used ".". (Regression tests don't work with this, yet.)
Sort out usage of CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS (and CXXFLAGS). Add "override" keyword
in most places, to preserve necessary flags even when the user overrode the
flags.
As a result, backend/libpq/pqcomm.c and interfaces/libpq/fe-connect.c
fail to compile.
The <netinet/tcp.h> header needs to be preceded by <netinet/in.h>, at
least on IRIX, Solaris and AIX. The simple configure test fails.
(That header on Linux is idempotent.)
The basic problem is that <netinet/tcp.h> is a BSD header. The
correct header for TCP internals such as TCP_NODELAY on a UNIX system
is <xti.h>. By UNIX I mean UNIX95 (aka XPG4v2 or SUSv1) or later.
The current UNIX standard (UNIX98 aka SUSv2) is available online at
<http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/>.
The fix is to add header support for <xti.h> into configure.in and
config.h.in.
The 2 files which conditionally include <netinet/tcp.h> need also to
conditionally include <xti.h>.

for the library. not sure if this will cause problems on other
platforms, but if it does it can be easily fixed. Also remove the
references to the GeekGadgets includes as the majority of users don't
have them installed and they foul the build process. We can document
that adding them if you have them installed is a good idea.
David Reid
after that dynamic loading isn't working and shared memory handling is
broken.
Attached with this message, there is a Zip file which contain :
* beos.diff = patch file generated with difforig
* beos = folder with beos support files which need to be moved in /
src/backend/port
* expected = foler with three file for message and precision
difference in regression test
* regression.diff = rule problem (need to kill the backend manualy)
* dynloader = dynloader files (they are also in the pacth files,
but there is so much modification that I have join full files)
Everything works except a problem in 'rules' Is there some problems
with rules in the current tree ? It used to works with last week tree.
Cyril VELTER
working on the VERY latest version of BeOS. I'm sure there will be
alot of comments, but then if there weren't I'd be disappointed!
Thanks for your continuing efforts to get this into your tree.
Haven't bothered with the new files as they haven't changed.
BTW Peter, the compiler is "broken" about the bool define and so on.
I'm filing a bug report to try and get it addressed. Hopefully then we
can tidy up the code a bit.
I await the replies with interest :)
David Reid
problems with some bits of it, but when all the patches are in it'll build
and we can fix it from there :) I've got a version that builds and runs and
that is the basis for these patches.
The first file has the new additional files that are required,
template/beos
backend/port/dynloader/beos.c
backend/port/dynloader/beos.h
include/port/beos.h
makefiles/Makefile.beos
The second is a tarball of diffs against a few files. I've added sys/ipc.h
to configure and config.h via configure.in and config.h.in and then started
adding the check as this file isn't needed on BeOS and having loads of
#ifdef BEOS isn't as obvious as #ifdef HAVE_SYS_IPC_H and isn't as
autconf'ish :)
Files touched are
include/c.h
configure.in
include/config.h.in
include/storage/ipc.h
include/utils/int8.h
Let me know how these go. I'll await a response before submitting any more.
Any problems just get in touch.
David Reid
and the fmgr redesign.
It makes the homebrewn dl*() functions for more recent Versions of AIX
obsolete
by using the system dl*() functions instead.
It also fixes the expected file for the horology regression test.
Please regenerate configure from configure.in, I don't have the
environment/time.

Update the installation instructions (formerly misnamed "FAQ"), add configure
checks for some headers rather than having users copy stubs manually (ugh!).
Use Autoconf check for exe extension. This also avoids inheriting the value
of $(X) from the environment.
add --without-tk option to disable Tk. We don't need the AC_PATH_XTRA
test because tkConfig.sh already contains all the information about how to
compile and link with X. Also make sure that libpq is up to date for
libpgtcl. Remove executable bits from pgaccess.sh, but add it to pgaccess.
souce directory of OpenSSL as argument to the --with-openssl - argument.
./configure --with-openssl=/tmp/openssl-0.9.5/ - the libcrypto.a is in
the
"base" directory, not lib/.
Also, there's 2-3 typo fixes to the documentation for SSL - it should be
"server.crt", not "server.cert".
Dominic J. Eidson
incarnations (I hope). When an acceptable flex version is not found, print
instructive error messages from both configure and the makefiles, so that
users can continue building anyway.
(rather than compile time). For libpq, even when Kerberos support is
compiled in, the default user name should still fall back to geteuid()
if it can't be determined via the Kerberos system.
A couple of fixes for string type configuration parameters, now that there
is one.
The latter updated accordingly. Also add `dist' and `distcheck' targets
to play with, but caveat packager.
Updated backend/bootstrap and backend/parser makefile to make them
marginally builddir aware and fix the usual set of things.
Add rule to automatically remake config.h dependent on config.h.in and
config.status. (Adopted from Autoconf manual and about every other
package.) On a good day we should now have a complete and accurate set
of dependencies throughout everything.
documentation. Therefore it's now installed by default. If there is no
documentation to be found (i.e., you are not using the distribution)
then this step is skipped.
Add --docdir option to configure to control installation directory.
