Also performed an initial run through of upgrading our Copyright date to
extend to 2005 ... first run here was very simple ... change everything
where: grep 1996-2004 && the word 'Copyright' ... scanned through the
generated list with 'less' first, and after, to make sure that I only
picked up the right entries ...
thought there couldn't be any, but the folly of this was exposed by an
example from andrew@supernews.com 5-Dec-2004. The patch applies the
identical logic already used for table constraints and defaults to ON
SELECT rules, so I have reasonable confidence in it even though it might
look like complicated logic.
be emitted too soon. The previous code got this right in the case where
the CHECK was emitted as a separate ALTER TABLE command, but not in the
case where the CHECK is emitted right in CREATE TABLE. Per report from
Slawomir Sudnik.
Note: this code is pretty ugly; it'd perhaps be better to treat comments
as independently sortable dump objects. That'd be much too invasive a
change for RC time though.

clause implicitly whenever one is not given explicitly. Remove concept
of a schema having an associated tablespace, and simplify the rules for
selecting a default tablespace for a table or index. It's now just
(a) explicit TABLESPACE clause; (b) default_tablespace if that's not an
empty string; (c) database's default. This will allow pg_dump to use
SET commands instead of tablespace clauses to determine object locations
(but I didn't actually make it do so). All per recent discussions.
multiline command or to rerun the command easily later.
Whereas displaying the failed SQL command is a matter of fixing the
error
messages.
The latter is complicated by failed COPY commands which, with
die-on-errors
off, results in the data being processed as a command, so dumping the
command will dump all of the data.
In the case of long commands, should the whole command be dumped? eg.
(eg.
several pages of function definition).
In the case of the COPY command, I'm not sure what to do. Obviously, it
would be best to avoid sending the data, but the data and command are
combined (from memory). Also, the 'data' may be in the form of INSERT
statements.

identifier chars as a potential $-quote tag, it then makes sure that the
tag chars are valid. If so, it processes the $-quote.

CurrentMemoryContext is DLLIMPORT on Win32. Work around that by
creating stubs in the backend for palloc/pstrdup.
Also fix pg_dumpall to do proper quoting on Win32.
Instead of putting all the OWNER TO commands at the end, it dumps then
after each object. This is WAY more readable and nice. ACLs are still
at the end.

* Fix help text ordering
* Add back --set-session-authorization to pg_dumpall. Updated the docs
for that. Updated help for that.
* Dump ALTER USER commands for the cluster owner ("pgsql"). These are
dumped AFTER the create user and create database commands in case the
permissions to do these have been revoked.
* Dump ALTER OWNER for public schema (because it's possible to change
it). This was done by adding TOC entries for the public schema, and
filtering them out at archiver time. I also save the owner in the TOC
entry just for the public schema.
* Suppress dumping single quotes around schema_path and DateStyle
options when they are set using ALTER USER or ALTER DATABASE. Added a
comment to the steps in guc.c to remind people to update that list.
* Fix dumping in --clean mode against a pre-7.3 server. It just sets
all drop statements to assume the public schema, allowing it to restore
without error.
* Cleaned up text output. eg. Don't output -- Tablespaces comment if
there are none. Same for groups and users.
* Make the commands to DELETE FROM pg_shadow and DELETE FROM pg_group
only be output when -c mode is enabled. I'm not sure why that hasn't
been done before?!?!
This should be good for application asap, after which I will start on
regression dumping 7.0-7.4 databases.

AUTHORIZATION commands by default. Move all GRANT and REVOKE commands
to the end of the dump to avoid restore failures in several situations.
Bring back --use-set-session-authorization option to get previous SET

live in database or schema's default tablespace, as per today's discussion.
Also, remove some unused keywords from the grammar (PATH, PENDANT,
VERSION), and fix ALSO, which was added as a keyword but not added
to the keyword classification lists, thus making it worse-than-reserved.
This eliminates the assumption that a serial column's sequence will
have the same name on reload that it was given in the original database.

There are various things left to do: contrib dbsize and oid2name modules
need work, and so does the documentation. Also someone should think about
COMMENT ON TABLESPACE and maybe RENAME TABLESPACE. Also initlocation is
dead, it just doesn't know it yet.

The patch also adds code to our client apps so we set the environment
variable directly based on our binary location, unless it is already
set. This will allow our applications to emit proper locale messages
that are generated in libpq.

Remove elog() calls from find_my_exec; do fprintf(stderr) instead. We
can then remove the exec.c handling in the makefile because it doesn't
have to be built to suppress elog calls.

all the code that looks for other binaries. I move FindExec into
port/exec.c (and renamed it to find_my_binary()). I also added
find_other_binary that looks for another binary in the same directory as
the calling program, and checks the version string.
The only behavior change was that initdb and pg_dump would look in the
hard-coded bindir directory if it can't find the requested binary in the
same directory as the caller. The new code throws an error. The old
behavior seemed too error prone for version mismatches.
conversion of basic ASCII letters. Remove all uses of strcasecmp and
strncasecmp in favor of new functions pg_strcasecmp and pg_strncasecmp;
remove most but not all direct uses of toupper and tolower in favor of
pg_toupper and pg_tolower. These functions use the same notions of
case folding already developed for identifier case conversion. I left
the straight locale-based folding in place for situations where we are
just manipulating user data and not trying to match it to built-in
strings --- for example, the SQL upper() function is still locale
dependent. Perhaps this will prove not to be what's wanted, but at
the moment we can initdb and pass regression tests in Turkish locale.

WITH/WITHOUT OIDS in dump files. This makes dump files more portable.
I have updated the pg_dump version so old binary dumps will load fine.
Pre-7.5 dumps use WITHOUT OIDS in SQL were needed, so they should be
fine.
in one query, rather than making a separate query for each object that
could have a comment. This costs relatively little space (a few tens of
K typically) and saves substantial time in databases with many objects.
I find it reduces the runtime of 'pg_dump -s regression' by about a
third.
object types, rather than by OID. This should help ensure consistent
dump output from databases that are logically the same but have different
histories, per recent discussion about 'diffing' databases. The patch
is bulky because of renaming of fields, but not very complicated.
Also, do some tweaking to cause BLOB restoration to be done in a better
order, and clean up pg_restore's textual output to exactly match pg_dump.

the same way it was dumped even if the target database has a different
encoding. Per suggestions from Pavel Stehule and others. Also,

just set that at the head of the script.
reduce the number of times TopoSort() has to be executed by trying to
extract multiple dependency loops from each pass, instead of only one.
This saves about another factor of ten on the regression database.
This could be considered as another exercise in grokking Fred Brooks'

one (use a priority heap to keep track of items ready to output, instead
of searching the input array each time). This brings the runtime of
pg_dump back to about what it was in 7.4.
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.
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.

large objects. Dump all these in pg_dump; also add code to pg_dump
user-defined conversions. Make psql's large object code rely on
the backend for inserting/deleting LOB comments, instead of trying to
hack pg_description directly. Documentation and regression tests added.

A cast is included in the dump output if any of the objects does
not belong to a system namespace and all of the non-system namespace
objects belong to dumped namespaces. System namespace is defined
as nspname begins with "pg_".

AUTHORIZATION clause to specify the desired owner. This allows a
superuser to restore schemas owned by users without CREATE-SCHEMA
permissions (ie, schemas originally created by a superuser using
AUTHORIZATION). --no-owner can be specified to suppress the
AUTHORIZATION clause if need be.

no-reconnect switches are obsolete (still accepted on the command line,
but they don't do anything). This is a precursor to fixing handling

getopt_long(). This is more or less the same problem as we saw earlier
with getaddrinfo() and struct addrinfo, and for the same reason: random
user-added libraries might contain the subroutine, but there's no
guarantee we will find the matching header files.
annoyed me the other day while I was documenting my current project. It

Can't really justify this too much except to say I had an itch and I
scratched it ;-)

dropped columns. Fix by using LEFT JOIN rather than straight join
between pg_attribute and pg_type. Also, use pg_type.oid as input to
format_type, so that we don't get a failure on deleted types of deleted
columns (this may be a change we ought to backpatch to 7.3....).
Alias the appropriate columns back to their original name.
Fixed formatting of a few other places as I went along (indenting)
