Bruce Momjian 1ee0ddf91d Another markup fix for recent patch. 2003-12-20 16:06:54 +00:00
Bruce Momjian 4e005c9095 Fix broken markup. 2003-12-20 15:59:25 +00:00
Bruce Momjian 54c8e821b8 In my mind there were two categories of open issues
a) ones that are 100% backward (such as the comment about
     outputting this format)
and
  b) ones that aren't (such as deprecating the current
     postgresql shorthand of
         '1Y1M'::interval = 1 year 1 minute
     in favor of the ISO-8601
         'P1Y1M'::interval = 1 year 1 month.

Attached is a patch that addressed all the discussed issues that
did not break backward compatability, including the ability to
output ISO-8601 compliant intervals by setting datestyle to
iso8601basic.

Interval values can now be written as  ISO 8601 time intervals, using
the "Format with time-unit designators". This format always starts with
the character 'P', followed  by a string of values followed
by single character time-unit designators. A 'T' separates the date and
time parts of the interval.

Tom Lane 005a1217fb Massive overhaul of pg_dump: make use of dependency information from
pg_depend to determine a safe dump order.  Defaults and check constraints
can be emitted either as part of a table or domain definition, or
separately if that's needed to break a dependency loop.  Lots of old
half-baked code for controlling dump order removed.

Bruce Momjian 7ce9b7c0d8 This patch adds a new GUC var, "default_with_oids", which follows the
proposal for eventually deprecating OIDs on user tables that I posted
earlier to pgsql-hackers. pg_dump now always specifies WITH OIDS or
WITHOUT OIDS when dumping a table. The documentation has been updated.
