Tom Lane 6cef5d2549 Operators live in namespaces. CREATE/DROP/COMMENT ON OPERATOR take
qualified operator names directly, for example CREATE OPERATOR myschema.+
( ... ).  To qualify an operator name in an expression you need to write
OPERATOR(myschema.+) (thanks to Peter for suggesting an escape hatch).
I also took advantage of having to reformat pg_operator to fix something
that'd been bugging me for a while: mergejoinable operators should have
explicit links to the associated cross-data-type comparison operators,
rather than hardwiring an assumption that they are named < and >.

Tom Lane b66cbc1fa2 Adjust rules for search_path so that pg_catalog is never implicitly
selected as the creation target namespace; to make that happen, you
must explicitly set search_path that way.  This makes initdb a hair
more complex but seems like a good safety feature.

Peter Eisentraut 2e32eca8d0 Allow detection of collateindex.pl in stylesheet directory or in path,
which covers some recent installation schemes.

Add Mandrake installation layout to directories to check for stylesheets.

Allow documentation build to proceed if stylesheets were not found, in case
the stylesheets might be found through the SGML catalog mechanism.

Bruce Momjian 6f2c0d47f8 This is a proposed patch to doc/src/sgml/libpgtcl.sgml which documents
the libpgtcl "pg_execute" command. This was mentioned on
pgsql-interfaces on Mar 3. I am posting it here in the hope that someone
will check to see if it makes sense and is correct SGML-wise.  I did run
it through jade, but this is my first try at this sort of thing.

Tom Lane 902a6a0a4b Restructure representation of aggregate functions so that they have pg_proc
entries, per pghackers discussion.  This fixes aggregates to live in
namespaces, and also simplifies/speeds up lookup in parse_func.c.
Also, add a 'proimplicit' flag to pg_proc that controls whether a type
coercion function may be invoked implicitly, or only explicitly.  The
current settings of these flags are more permissive than I would like,
but we will need to debate and refine the behavior; for now, I avoided
breaking regression tests as much as I could.

2002-04-05 03:06:10 +00:00
Tom Lane 4bdb4be62e Divide functions into three volatility classes (immutable, stable, and
volatile), rather than the old cachable/noncachable distinction.  This
allows indexscan optimizations in many places where we formerly didn't.
Also, add a pronamespace column to pg_proc (it doesn't do anything yet,
however).

Tom Lane 789ddcb5fe Add tgconstrrelid to stored Trigger structures, make RI trigger functions
depend on this rather than the trigger argument strings to locate the
other relation to test.  This makes RI triggers function properly in
the presence of schemas and temp tables.  Along the way, fix bogus lack
of locking in RI triggers, handle quoting of names fully correctly,
compute required sizes of query buffers with some semblance of accuracy.

Bruce Momjian 64839d9425 Update for SET/DROP NOT NULL. 2002-04-01 14:12:23 +00:00
Tom Lane 9b77f61930 ALTER TABLE SET/DROP NOT NULL, from Christopher Kings-Lynne. 2002-04-01 04:35:40 +00:00
Tom Lane 838fe25a95 Create a new GUC variable search_path to control the namespace search
path.  The default behavior if no per-user schemas are created is that
all users share a 'public' namespace, thus providing behavior backwards
compatible with 7.2 and earlier releases.  Probably the semantics and
default setting will need to be fine-tuned, but this is a start.
