Tom Lane c38ff52693 Fix misstatement about the required value of SEMVMX. Given our current
usage of PGSemaMagic, the minimum required value is actually 537, but
say 1000 just to use a round number.  255 is *not* good enough.

Tom Lane 18f58a048e Preliminary code review for C version of initdb. Re-centralize handling
of option switches for backend, fix handling of COPY from data files so
that we won't have the newline-after-\. issue back again, add back some
comments and printouts lost from the shell script, etc.  Still needs work
for error handling; in particular the shell version worked much more
nicely for the case of a postgres executable that fails on invocation.

Tom Lane 01e62da191 Dunno why this got committed with DOS newlines, but fix that, and
add a header comment/copyright notice.

Jan Wieck 6b86d62b00 2nd try for the ARC strategy.
I added a couple more Assertions while tracking down the exact
cause of the former bug.

All 93 regression tests pass now.

Tom Lane 27e8ef0535 AcceptResult() was missing a case for PGRES_EMPTY_QUERY --- probably
my fault.  Adding it fixes bogus message display when reading a block
comment at the end of a script file.

Peter Eisentraut 934c21344c Documentation cleanup 2003-11-12 22:47:47 +00:00
Tom Lane fa5c8a055a Cross-data-type comparisons are now indexable by btrees, pursuant to my
pghackers proposal of 8-Nov.  All the existing cross-type comparison
operators (int2/int4/int8 and float4/float8) have appropriate support.
The original proposal of storing the right-hand-side datatype as part of
the primary key for pg_amop and pg_amproc got modified a bit in the event;
it is easier to store zero as the 'default' case and only store a nonzero
when the operator is actually cross-type.  Along the way, remove the
long-since-defunct bigbox_ops operator class.

Bruce Momjian 49f98fa833 Here's some improvements. I just ended up referring people to Jason's
website for install as service, because it's a quite a long and complex
process.

Bruce Momjian 279598bb71 Add C version of initdb, from Andrew Dunstan.
This is his original version with a binary rmdir() we might need in the
future.

I will commit an update version with cleanups shortly.

Tom Lane c1d62bfd00 Add operator strategy and comparison-value datatype fields to ScanKey.
Remove the 'strategy map' code, which was a large amount of mechanism
that no longer had any use except reverse-mapping from procedure OID to
strategy number.  Passing the strategy number to the index AM in the
first place is simpler and faster.
This is a preliminary step in planned support for cross-datatype index
operations.  I'm committing it now since the ScanKeyEntryInitialize()
API change touches quite a lot of files, and I want to commit those
changes before the tree drifts under me.

Bruce Momjian abcc4b9a91 I have attached a more comprehensive MSWIN FAQ patch. Basically, the
instructions were way out of date and incorrect.  Installing Postgres
from Cygwin is easier these days than the FAQ would imply.

This patch already includes Andrew's previous patch.
