Commit c0d0e54084 replaced the ones in the documentation, but missed out
on the ones in the code. Replace those as well, but unlike c0d0e54084,
don't backpatch the code changes to avoid breaking translations.
In commit a5c43b88 the behavior of command line pg_config was
inadvertantly changed to include the config name when specific
configs are requested, similar to when none are requested and
all are emitted. This breaks scripts that expect to use
pg_config for e.g. PGXS. Revert the behavior to the previous.
Move and refactor the underlying code for the pg_config client
application to src/common in support of sharing it with a new
system information SRF called pg_config() which makes the same
information available via SQL. Additionally wrap the SRF with a
new system view, as called pg_config.
Patch by me with extensive input and review by Michael Paquier
and additional review by Alvaro Herrera.
The "check" target no longer needs to depend on "all", because it now
runs "install" directly, which in turn depends on "all". Doing both
will cause problems with parallel make, because two builds will run next
to each other.
Also remove the redirection of the temp-install output into a log file.
This was appropriate when this was done from within pg_regress, but now
it's just a regular make run, and especially with the above changes this
will now take the place of running the "all" target before the test
suites.
problem report by Jeff Janes, patch in part by Michael Paquier
Commit 7d0f493f19 added infrastructure
to perform tests in assorted src/bin/ subdirectories, but forgot to
teach "make clean" to clean up the detritus the tests leave behind.
Continuing 63f32f3416, libpgcommon should
depend on libpgport, but not vice versa. But wait_result_to_str() in
wait_error.c depends on pstrdup() in libpgcommon. So move exec.c and
wait_error.c from libpgport to libpgcommon. Also switch the link order
in the place that's actually used by the failing ecpg builds.
The function declarations have been left in port.h for now. That should
perhaps be separated sometime.
Before, some places didn't document the short options (-? and -V),
some documented both, some documented nothing, and they were listed in
various orders. Now this is hopefully more consistent and complete.
It currently doesn't make a difference, but it's inconsistent with
most other usage, and it might interfere with a future patch, so I'll
change it all in a separate commit.
Also, replace tabs with spaces for alignment.
Replace for loops in makefiles with proper dependencies. Parallel
make can now span across directories. Also, make -k and make -q work
properly.
GNU make 3.80 or newer is now required.
linking both executables and shared libraries, and we add on LDFLAGS_EX when
linking executables or LDFLAGS_SL when linking shared libraries. This
provides a significantly cleaner way of dealing with link-time switches than
the former behavior. Also, make sure that the various platform-specific
%.so: %.o rules incorporate LDFLAGS and LDFLAGS_SL; most of them missed that
before. (I did not add these variables for the platforms that invoke $(LD)
directly, however. It's not clear if we can do that safely, since for the
most part we assume these variables use CC command-line syntax.)
Per gripe from Aaron Swenson and subsequent investigation.
