Tom Lane 45d04099df Reinstate pg_type's typsend and typreceive columns. They don't do much
yet, but they're there.  Also some editorial work on CREATE TYPE reference
page.

Peter Eisentraut ed24f28538 Fixups for man pages 2002-11-21 23:34:43 +00:00
Tom Lane eb3adab568 Provide an upgrade strategy for dump files containing functions declared
with OPAQUE.  CREATE LANGUAGE, CREATE TRIGGER, and CREATE TYPE will all
accept references to functions declared with OPAQUE --- but they will
issue a NOTICE, and will modify the function entries in pg_proc to have
the preferred type-safe argument or result types instead of OPAQUE.
Per recent pghackers discussions.

Tom Lane 64505ed58b Code review for standalone composite types, query-specified composite
types, SRFs.  Not happy with memory management yet, but I'll commit these
other changes.

Tom Lane 41ff800bb2 Update reference to value of NAMEDATALEN. Someone needs to troll the
docs and find the other obsolete statements that no doubt lurk.
2002-08-23 00:33:24 +00:00
Tom Lane b663f3443b Add a bunch of pseudo-types to replace the behavior formerly associated
with OPAQUE, as per recent pghackers discussion.  I still want to do some
more work on the 'cstring' pseudo-type, but I'm going to commit the bulk
of the changes now before the tree starts shifting under me ...

Thanks.

Attached is a patch against cvs tip as of 8:30 PM PST or so. Turned out
that even after fixing the failed hunks, there was a new spot in
bufmgr.c which needed to be fixed (related to temp relations;
RelationUpdateNumberOfBlocks). But thankfully the regression test code
caught it :-)

Peter Eisentraut 739adf32ee Remove unused system table columns:
pg_language.lancompiler
pg_operator.oprprec
pg_operator.oprisleft
pg_proc.proimplicit
pg_proc.probyte_pct
pg_proc.properbyte_cpu
pg_proc.propercall_cpu
pg_proc.prooutin_ratio
pg_shadow.usetrace
pg_type.typprtlen
pg_type.typreceive
pg_type.typsend

Attempts to use the obsoleted attributes of pg_operator or pg_proc
in the CREATE commands will be greeted by a warning.  For pg_type,
there is no warning (yet) because pg_dump scripts still contain these
attributes.

Also remove new but already obsolete spellings
isVolatile, isStable, isImmutable in WITH clause.  (Use new syntax
instead.)

Thomas G. Lockhart c05f29e895 Augment the date/time examples in the User's Guide to reflect the newer
capabilities of specifying time zones as intervals per SQL9x.
Put refentrytitle contents on the same line as the tag.
 Otherwise, leading whitespace is propagated into the product, which
 (at least) messes up the ToC layout.
Remove (some) docinfo tags containing dates. Best to omit if the dates
 are not accurate; maybe use CVS dates instead or leave them out.

Tom Lane fd61fbe837 For some reason, CREATE TYPE has only accepted alignment specifications
of 'int4' and 'double'.  Add 'char' and 'int2' to allow user-defined types
to access the full set of supported alignments.

Bruce Momjian 47065aec11 I'm attaching those diffs for the Reference Guide in a tar file, as
not all of them attached properly in the post I made a few minutes
ago. Please disregard those earlier files. The diffs in the tar file
replace them.

Thomas G. Lockhart a4ac2f458e Fix markup for docbook2man man page generation.
No big deal; fixed lots of other markup at the same time.
Bigest change: make sure there is no whitespace
 in front of <term> contents.
This will probably help the other output types too.
