maintained for each cache entry. A cache entry will not be freed until
the matching ReleaseSysCache call has been executed. This eliminates
worries about cache entries getting dropped while still in use. See
my posting to pg-hackers of even date for more info.
Same code exactly as for function resolution.
An obvious example is for
select '1' = '01';
which used to throw an error and which now resolves to two text strings.
key call sites are changed, but most called functions are still oldstyle.
An exception is that the PL managers are updated (so, for example, NULL
handling now behaves as expected in plperl and plpgsql functions).
NOTE initdb is forced due to added column in pg_proc.
In function parsing, try for an actual function of the given name and
input types before trying to interpret the function call as a type
coercion request, rather than after. Before, a function that had the
same name as a type and operated on a binary-compatible type wouldn't
get invoked. Also, cross-pollinate between func_select_candidates and
oper_select_candidates to ensure that they use as nearly the same
resolution rules as possible. A few other minor code cleanups too.
problem could be lack of parentheses. This addresses cases like
X UserOp UserOp Y, which will be parsed as (X UserOp) UserOp Y,
whereas what likely was wanted was X UserOp (UserOp Y).
coercion code. I'm beginning to wonder why we have separate candidate
selection routines for functions, operators, and aggregates --- shouldn't
this code all be unified? But meanwhile,
SELECT 'a' LIKE 'a';
finally works; the code for dealing with unknown input types for operators
was pretty busted.
failures. Fix some outright bugs too, including a reference to
uninitialized memory that would cause failures like this one:
select -('1234567890.1234567'::text);
ERROR: Unable to locate type oid 2139062143 in catalog
Make all system indexes unique.
Make all cache loads use system indexes.
Rename *rel to *relid in inheritance tables.
Rename cache names to be clearer.
additional argument specifying the kind of lock to acquire/release (or
'NoLock' to do no lock processing). Ensure that all relations are locked
with some appropriate lock level before being examined --- this ensures
that relevant shared-inval messages have been processed and should prevent
problems caused by concurrent VACUUM. Fix several bugs having to do with
mismatched increment/decrement of relation ref count and mismatched
heap_open/close (which amounts to the same thing). A bogus ref count on
a relation doesn't matter much *unless* a SI Inval message happens to
arrive at the wrong time, which is probably why we got away with this
sloppiness for so long. Repair missing grab of AccessExclusiveLock in
DROP TABLE, ALTER/RENAME TABLE, etc, as noted by Hiroshi.
Recommend 'make clean all' after pulling this update; I modified the
Relation struct layout slightly.
Will post further discussion to pghackers list shortly.
last loop which would return the *first* surviving-to-that-point candidate
regardless of which one actually passed the test. This was producing
such curious results as 'oid % 2' getting translated to 'int2(oid) % 2'.
match then it tried for a self-commutative operator with the reversed input
data types. This is pretty silly; there could never be such an operator,
except maybe in binary-compatible-type scenarios, and we have oper_inexact
for that. Besides which, the oprsanity regress test would complain about
such an operator. Remove nonfunctional code and simplify routine calling
convention accordingly.

Fix oper_select_candidate() to work with a single operator argument.
Repair left operator checking for null return from candidate list.
no longer returns buffer pointer, can be gotten from scan;
descriptor; bootstrap can create multi-key indexes;
pg_procname index now is multi-key index; oidint2, oidint4, oidname
are gone (must be removed from regression tests); use System Cache
rather than sequential scan in many places; heap_modifytuple no
longer takes buffer parameter; remove unused buffer parameter in
a few other functions; oid8 is not index-able; remove some use of
single-character variable names; cleanup Buffer variables usage
and scan descriptor looping; cleaned up allocation and freeing of
tuples; 18k lines of diff;
Currently force the type to match the _first_ select in the union.
Move oper_select_candidate() from parse_func.c to parse_oper.c.
Throw error inside of oper_inexact() if no match for binary operators.
Check more carefully that types can be coerced
even if there is only one candidate operator in oper_inexact().
Fix up error messages for more uniform look.
Remove unused code.
Fix up comments.
1. Removes the unnecessary "#define AbcRegProcedure 123"'s from
pg_proc.h.
2. Changes those #defines to use the names already defined in
fmgr.h.
3. Forces the make of fmgr.h in backend/Makefile instead of having
it
made as a dependency in access/common/Makefile *hack*hack*hack*
4. Rearranged the #includes to a less helter-skelter arrangement,
also
changing <file.h> to "file.h" to signify a non-system header.
5. Removed "pg_proc.h" from files where its only purpose was for
the
#defines removed in item #1.
6. Added "fmgr.h" to each file changed for completeness sake.
Turns out that #6 was not necessary for some files because fmgr.h
was being included in a roundabout way SIX levels deep by the first
include.
"access/genam.h"
->"access/relscan.h"
->"utils/rel.h"
->"access/strat.h"
->"access/skey.h"
->"fmgr.h"
So adding fmgr.h really didn't add anything to the compile, hopefully
just made it clearer to the programmer.

varchar length.
Cleans up code so attlen is always length.
Removed varchar() hack added earlier.
Will fix bug in selecting varchar() fields, and varchar() can be
variable length.
