which is broken in some weird way that I don't understand. I think it
may be exposing a bug in the new psql --- for one thing, I get different
results when I run psql by hand than the regress script gets. What
the heck???
mentioned in FROM but not elsewhere in the query: such tables should be
joined over anyway. Aside from being more standards-compliant, this allows
removal of some very ugly hacks for COUNT(*) processing. Also, allow
HAVING clause without aggregate functions, since SQL does. Clean up
CREATE RULE statement-list syntax the same way Bruce just fixed the
main stmtmulti production.
CAUTION: addition of a field to RangeTblEntry nodes breaks stored rules;
you will have to initdb if you have any rules.
they have no hardwired limit on the length of a rule's text. Fix a couple
of minor bugs in passing --- deparsed UPDATE queries didn't have quotes
around relation name, and quotes and backslashes in constant values weren't
backslash-quoted.
in rules regression test, in order to eliminate bogus test 'failures'
that occur due to platform-dependent and join-implementation-dependent
ordering of tuples. I'm not sure that I got all of the SELECTs that need
ordering clauses --- we may need some more. But this takes care of the
diffs between my platform and Jan's.
rule system semantics by having Var nodes referenced across multiple
parsetrees when rules split them.
Added more tests to the rules regression test.
The code in question resulted from v6.3 based development and was
a little careless applied to the v6.5 source tree.

for against a just updated CVS tree. It contains
Partial new rewrite system that handles subselects, view
aggregate columns, insert into select from view, updates
with set col = view-value and select rules restriction to
view definition.
Updates for rule/view backparsing utility functions to
handle subselects correct.
New system views pg_tables and pg_indexes (where you can
see the complete index definition in the latter one).
Enabling array references on query parameters.
Bugfix for functional index.
Little changes to system views pg_rules and pg_views.
The rule system isn't a release-stopper any longer.
But another stopper is that I don't know if the latest
changes to PL/pgSQL (not already in CVS) made it compile on
AIX. Still wait for some response from Dave.
