Tom Lane e2a8804330 Support EXECUTE USING in plpgsql. 
Pavel Stehule, with some improvements by myself.
 2008-04-01 03:51:09 +00:00
Tom Lane d5466e38f0 Add SPI-level support for executing SQL commands with one-time-use plans, 
that is commands that have out-of-line parameters but the plan is prepared
assuming that the parameter values are constants.  This is needed for the
plpgsql EXECUTE USING patch, but will probably have use elsewhere.

This commit includes the SPI functions and documentation, but no callers
nor regression tests.  The upcoming EXECUTE USING patch will provide
regression-test coverage.  I thought committing this separately made
sense since it's logically a distinct feature.

Tom Lane 3405f2b925 Use error message wordings for permissions checks on .pgpass and SSL private 
key files that are similar to the one for the postmaster's data directory
permissions check.  (I chose to standardize on that one since it's the most
heavily used and presumably best-wordsmithed by now.)  Also eliminate explicit
tests on file ownership in these places, since the ensuing read attempt must
fail anyway if it's wrong, and there seems no value in issuing the same error
message for distinct problems.  (But I left in the explicit ownership test in
postmaster.c, since it had its own error message anyway.)  Also be more
specific in the documentation's descriptions of these checks.  Per a gripe
from Kevin Hunter.

Neil Conway 2169e42bef Enable 64-bit integer datetimes by default, per previous discussion. 
This requires a working 64-bit integer type. If such a type cannot
be found, "--disable-integer-datetimes" can be used to switch
back to the previous floating point-based datetime implementation.

Neil Conway c111a7211f Update documentation for recent DTrace changes. Patch from Robert Lor. 2008-03-25 22:50:27 +00:00
Tom Lane 220db7ccd8 Simplify and standardize conversions between TEXT datums and ordinary C 
strings.  This patch introduces four support functions cstring_to_text,
cstring_to_text_with_len, text_to_cstring, and text_to_cstring_buffer, and
two macros CStringGetTextDatum and TextDatumGetCString.  A number of
existing macros that provided variants on these themes were removed.

Most of the places that need to make such conversions now require just one
function or macro call, in place of the multiple notational layers that used
to be needed.  There are no longer any direct calls of textout or textin,
and we got most of the places that were using handmade conversions via
memcpy (there may be a few still lurking, though).

This commit doesn't make any serious effort to eliminate transient memory
leaks caused by detoasting toasted text objects before they reach
text_to_cstring.  We changed PG_GETARG_TEXT_P to PG_GETARG_TEXT_PP in a few
places where it was easy, but much more could be done.

Tom Lane 05fc744b96 Add a new ereport auxiliary function errdetail_log(), which works the same as 
errdetail except the string goes only to the server log, replacing the normal
errdetail there.  This provides a reasonably clean way of dealing with error
details that are too security-sensitive or too bulky to send to the client.

This commit just adds the infrastructure --- actual uses to follow.
