to the Perl makefile, which the upper-level Makefile can invoke.
libpq++.h contained copies of the class declarations in the other libpq++
include files, which was bogus enough, but the declarations were not
completely in step with the real declarations. Remove these in favor
of including the headers with #include. Make PgConnection destructor
virtual (not absolutely necessary, but seems like a real good idea
considering the number of subclasses derived from it). Give all classes
declared private copy constructors and assignment operators, to prevent
compiler from thinking it can copy these objects safely.

include the version from backend/port into libpq.
There is a second-rate implementation of inet_aton() already present
in fe-connect.c, #ifdef'd WIN32. That ought to be removed in favor

this release...

and do not arbitrarily pull in CFLAGS instead. This caters to platforms

it in a separate object. There's no value in keeping the state separate,
and it creates dangling-pointer problems. Also, remove PQsetenv routines
from public API, until and unless they are redesigned to have a safer

it's unlikely that anyone is calling them.
1. C++ style comments in C source for ecpg ( // comment )
2. compiler finds wrong include file extern.h in ecpg/lib/descriptor.c

SOCKET_SIZE_TYPE instead)
4. char vs unsigned char in psql calls to libpq
5. empty define that results in an empty but terminated line ( ; )
Now for all but point 3 I can supply changes to the
compiler flags, to make the compiler less pedantic.
Or is someone interested in the complications ?
in the meantime can someone apply the attached patch ?

16-Mar-00: trailing + or - is not part of the operator unless the operator
also contains characters not present in SQL92-defined operators. This
solves the 'X=-Y' problem without unduly constraining users' choice of
operator names --- in particular, no existing Postgres operator names
become invalid.
Also, remove processing of // comments, as agreed in the same thread.
/tmp/trace.out.
However, elog.h uses DEBUG as a log-level flag. As a result, tracing is
turned on even if the libpq++.so is built with DEBUG commented out in
the Makefile.
This patch changes libpq++ to use DEBUGFILE instead (which is not
defined anywhere else).

array. This allows processing of conninfo strings to be made thread-safe,
at the cost of a small memory leak in applications that use
PQconndefaults() and are not updated to free the returned array via
the new PQconninfoFree() function. But PQconndefaults() is probably not
used very much, so this seems like a good compromise.
1) adds NetBSD shared lib support on both ELF and a.out platforms
2) replaces "-L$(LIBPQDIR) -lpq" with "$(LIBPQ)" defined in
Makefile.global. This makes it much easier to build stuff in
the source tree after you've already installed the libraries.
3) adds TEMPLATEDIR in Makefile.global that indicates where the
database templates are stored. This separates the template files
from real libraries that are installed in $(LIBDIR).
4) changes include order of <readline/readline.h> and <readline.h>.
The latest GNU readline installs its headers under a readline
subdirectory.
In addition to applying the patch below the following files need to be copied:
backend/port/dynloader:
bsd.h -> netbsd.h

makefiles:
Makefile.bsd -> Makefile.netbsd
It would be great to see this incorporated into the source tree before
the 7.0 release is cut.

accesses versus sequential accesses, a (very crude) estimate of the
effects of caching on random page accesses, and cost to evaluate WHERE-
clause expressions. Export critical parameters for this model as SET
variables. Also, create SET variables for the planner's enable flags
(enable_seqscan, enable_indexscan, etc) so that these can be controlled
more conveniently than via PGOPTIONS.
Planner now estimates both startup cost (cost before retrieving
first tuple) and total cost of each path, so it can optimize queries
with LIMIT on a reasonable basis by interpolating between these costs.
Same facility is a win for EXISTS(...) subqueries and some other cases.
Redesign pathkey representation to achieve a major speedup in planning

Here is a patch to bring both libpq and psql to a state where it compiles on
win32 (native) again. A lot of things have changed, and I have not been able
to keep up with them all, so it has been broken for quite a while.
After this patch, at least it compiles. It also talks "basic talk" to the
server, but I have not yet tested all things. Sending queries, and using
e.g. \d or \dt works fine. The rest will have to be tested further.
It also bumps the version on libpq.dll to 7.0.
Everything should be enclosed in #ifdef WIN32, unless I have missed
something. Except for one or maybe two places where I have moved a #include
that should not be used on win32 from the "global area" into a "#ifndef
WIN32 area".

quote_postgres(...) in ecpglib.c.
The code in CVS reads:
quote_postgres(char *arg, int lineno)
{
char *res = (char *) ecpg_alloc(2 * strlen(arg) + 3, lineno);
int i,
ri = 0;
if (!res)
return (res);
res[ri++] = '\'';
for (i = 0, ri=0; arg[i]; i++, ri++)
{
switch (arg[i])
{
case '\'':
res[ri++] = '\'';
break;
case '\\':
res[ri++] = '\\';

The problem here is that ri is reset to 0, thus overwriting the initial
quote.

a ".pgc " extension. The second patch fixes a coredump when there is
more than one input file (in that case, cur and types were not set to
NULL before processing the second f ile)
The patch below modifies the accepted grammar of ecpg to accept
FETCH [direction] [amount] cursor name
i.e. the IN|FROM clause becomes optional (as in Oracle and Informix).
This removes the incompatibility mentioned in section "Porting From
Other RDBMS Packages" p169, PostgreSQL Programmer's Guide. The grammar
is modified in such a way as to avoid shift/reduce conflicts. It does
not accept the statement "EXEC SQL FETCH;" anymore, as the old grammar
did (this seems to be a bug of the old grammar anyway).
This patch cleans up the handling of space characters in the scanner;
some patte rns require \n to be in {space}, some do not. A second fix is
the handling of cpp continuati on lines; the old pattern did not match
these. The parser is patched to fix an off-by-one error in the #line
directives. The pa rser is also enhanced to report the correct location
of errors in declarations in the "E XEC SQL DECLARE SECTION". Finally,
some right recursions in the parser were replaced by left-recursions.
This patch adds preprocessor directives to ecpg; in particular
EXEC SQL IFDEF, EXEC SQL IFNDEF, EXEC SQL ELSE, EXEC SQL ELIF and EXEC SQL ENDIF
"EXEC SQL IFDEF" is used with defines made with "EXEC SQL DEFINE" and
defines, specified on the command line with -D. Defines, specified on
the command line are persistent across multiple input files. Defines can
be nested up to a maximum level of 128 (see patch). There is a fair
amount of error checking to make sure directives are matched properly. I
need preprocessor directives for porting code, that is written for an
Informix database, to a PostgreSQL database, while maintaining
compatibility with the original code. I decided not to extend the
already large ecpg grammar. Everything is done in the scanner by adding
some states, e.g. to skip all input except newlines and directives. The
preprocessor commands are compatible with Informix. Oracle uses a cpp
replacement.

and brings into the published interface
PQsetenv.
The first four are asynchronous analogues of PQconnectdb and PQreset -
they allow an application to connect to the DB without blocking on
remote I/O.
The PQsetenv functions perform an environment negotiation with the
server.
Internal to libpq, pqReadReady and pqWriteReady have been made available
across the library (they were previously static functions inside
fe-misc.c). A lot of internal rearrangement has been necessary to
support these changes.
The API documentation has been updated also.
Caveats:
o The Windows code does not default to using non-blocking sockets,
since I have no documentation: Define WIN32_NON_BLOCKING_CONNECTIONS to
do that.
o The SSL code still blocks.

You have CommLog and Debug enabled
You encounter in error in any operation (SQLConnect/SQLExec).
Previously, the extra logging didn't check for NULL pointers
when trying to print some of the strings- the socket error
message could frequently be NULL by design (if there was no socket
error)
and Solaris does not handle NULLS passed to things like printf
("%s\n",string);
gracefully.
This basically duplicates the functionality found in Linux where passing
a null pointer
to printf prints "(NULL)". No very elegant, but the logging is for debug
only anyway.

* Add use of 'const' for varibles in source tree
(which is misspelled, btw.)
I went through the front-end libpq code and did so. This affects in
particular the various accessor functions (such as PQdb() and
PQgetvalue()) as well as, by necessity, the internal helpers they use.
I have been really thorough in that regard, perhaps some people will find
it annoying that things like
char * foo = PQgetvalue(res, 0, 0)
will generate a warning. On the other hand it _should_ generate one. This
is no real compatibility break, although a few clients will have to be
fixed to suppress warnings. (Which again would be in the spirit of the
above TODO.)
In addition I replaced some int's by size_t's and removed some warnings
(and generated some new ones -- grmpf!). Also I rewrote PQoidStatus (so it
actually honors the const!) and supplied a new function PQoidValue that
returns a proper Oid type. This is only front-end stuff, none of the
communicaton stuff was touched.
The psql patch also adds some new consts to honor the new libpq situation,
as well as fixes a fatal condition that resulted when using the -V
(--version) option and there is no database listening.
So, to summarize, the psql you should definitely put in (with or without
the libpq). If you think I went too far with the const-mania in libpq, let
me know and I'll make adjustments. If you approve it, I will also update
the docs.

One, it now returns the previous hook. That way people don't have to dig
around in libpq-int.h for that information anymore. It previously
returned void, so there should be no incompatibilities.
Second, you cannot set the callback to NULL anymore. (Of course you can
still call it with NULL just to get the current hook.) The way libpq uses
the callback pointer, having a NULL there wasn't very healthy.

fix recently applied to backend's lexer). I see that YY_USES_REJECT
still gets defined for this lexer, which means it's going to have trouble
parsing really long tokens. Not sure if it's worth doing anything about
that or not; I don't have the interest right now to understand why
ecpg's additions to the syntax cause this problem...

database, but they get truncated at the first NUL by lo_read
when they are read back. The reason for this is that lo_read in
Pg.xs is using the default:
OUTPUT:
RETVAL
buf
which uses C's strlen() to work out the length of the scalar.
The code ought to read something more like:
OUTPUT:
RETVAL
buf sv_setpvn((SV*)ST(2), buf, RETVAL);
I am not sure if this needs to be done on both lo_read methods
in this file, but I changed both and have not since had any
problems with truncated BLOBs.

functions. One problem that I have encountered with the function
manager is that it does not allow the user to define type conversion
functions that convert between user types. For instance if mytype1,
mytype2, and mytype3 are three Postgresql user types, and if I wish to
define Postgresql conversion functions like
I run into problems, because the Postgresql dynamic loader would look
for a single link symbol, mytype3, for both pieces of object code. If
I just change the name of one of the Postgresql functions (to make the
symbols distinct), the automatic type conversion that Postgresql uses,
for example, when matching operators to arguments no longer finds the
type conversion function.
The solution that I propose, and have implemented in the attatched
patch extends the CREATE FUNCTION syntax as follows. In the first case
above I use the link symbol mytype2_to_mytype3 for the link object
that implements the first conversion function, and define the
Postgresql operator with the following syntax
The patch includes changes to the parser to include the altered
syntax, changes to the ProcedureStmt node in nodes/parsenodes.h,
changes to commands/define.c to handle the extra information in the AS
clause, and changes to utils/fmgr/dfmgr.c that alter the way that the
dynamic loader figures out what link symbol to use. I store the
string for the link symbol in the prosrc text attribute of the pg_proc
table which is currently unused in rows that reference dynamically
loaded
functions.

Two patches included:
- the first one enables the use of bool variables in fields which might
become NULL.
Up to now the lib told you that NULL is not a bool variable, even if
you provide a indicator.
- the second patch checks whether a value is null and issues an error if
no indicator is provided.
Sidenote: IIRC, the variable should be left alone if the value is NULL.
ECPGlib sets it's value to 0 on NULL. Is this a violation of the
standard?
