Complaint and patch from Zoltán Böszörményi.
When cross-compiling, the native make doesn't know
about the Windows .exe suffix, so it only builds with
it when explicitly told to do so.
The native make will not see the link between the target
name and the built executable, and might this do unnecesary
work, but that's a bigger problem than this one, if in fact
we consider it a problem at all.
Back-patch to all live branches.
This was used in a time when a shared libperl or libpython was difficult
to come by. That is obsolete, and the idea behind the flag was never
fully portable anyway and will likely fail on more modern CPU
architectures.
Normally each module is tested in a database named contrib_regression,
which is dropped and recreated at the beginhning of each pg_regress run.
This new mode, enabled by adding USE_MODULE_DB=1 to the make command
line, runs most modules in a database with the module name embedded in
it.
This will make testing pg_upgrade on clusters with the contrib modules
a lot easier.
Second attempt at this, this time accomodating make versions older
than 3.82.
Still to be done: adapt to the MSVC build system.
Backpatch to 9.0, which is the earliest version it is reasonably
possible to test upgrading from.

The previous coding worked as long as MODULEDIR wasn't set explicitly,
because we create sharedir/$(datamoduledir) and the default value of
that is "extension". But if some other value is specified for MODULEDIR
then the installation directory needed for the control file wasn't made.

Building a shlib on AIX requires use of the mkldexport.sh script, but we
failed to install that, preventing its use from non-source-tree contexts.
Also, Makefile.aix had the wrong idea about where to find the installed
copy of the postgres.imp symbol file used by AIX.
Per report from John Pierce. Patch all the way back, since this has been
broken since the beginning of PGXS.
Remove the following ports:
- dgux
- nextstep
- sunos4
- svr4
- ultrix4
- univel
These are obsolete and not worth rescuing. In most cases, there is
circumstantial evidence that they wouldn't work anymore anyway.
It runs the regression tests, runs pg_upgrade on the populated
database, and compares the before and after dumps. While not actually
a cross-version upgrade, this does detect omissions and bugs in the
involved tools from time to time. It's also possible to do a
cross-version upgrade by manually supplying parameters.
The previous coding resulted in contrib modules unintentionally overriding
the use of CONTRIB_TESTDB. There seems no particularly good reason to
allow that (after all, the makefile can set CONTRIB_TESTDB if that's really
what it intends).
In passing, document REGRESS_OPTS where the other pgxs.mk options are
documented.
Back-patch to 9.1 --- in prior versions, there were no cases of contrib
modules setting REGRESS_OPTS without including the --dbname switch, so
while the coding was fragile there was no actual bug.
Per recommendation from Peter. Neither choice is bulletproof, but this
is the existing style and it does help prevent unexpected environment
variable substitution.
install-sh can install multiple files at once, so for loops are not
necessary. This was already changed for the rest of the code some
time ago, but pgxs.mk was apparently forgotten, and the obsolete
coding style has now been copied to the PLs as well.
This also fixes the problem that the for loops in question did not
catch errors.
Added a new option --extra-install to pg_regress to arrange installing
the respective contrib directory into the temporary installation.
This is currently not yet supported for Windows MSVC builds.
Updated the .gitignore files for contrib modules to ignore the
leftovers of a temp-install check run.
Changed the exit status of "make check" in a pgxs build (which still
does nothing) to 0 from 1.
Added "make check" in contrib to top-level "make check-world".
Arrange for the control files to be in $SHAREDIR/extension not
$SHAREDIR/contrib, since we're generally trying to deprecate the term
"contrib" and this is a once-in-many-moons opportunity to get rid of it in
install paths. Fix PGXS to install the $EXTENSION file into that directory
no matter what MODULEDIR is set to; a nondefault MODULEDIR should only
affect the script and secondary extension files. Fix the control file
directory parameter to be interpreted relative to $SHAREDIR, to avoid a
surprising disconnect between how you specify that and what you set
MODULEDIR to.
Per discussion with David Wheeler.
This patch adds the server infrastructure to support extensions.
There is still one significant loose end, namely how to make it play nice
with pg_upgrade, so I am not yet committing the changes that would make
all the contrib modules depend on this feature.
In passing, fix a disturbingly large amount of breakage in
AlterObjectNamespace() and callers.

supposing that they should set SHLIB_LINK rather than LDFLAGS_SL. Since these
don't go through Makefile.shlib that was a no-op on most platforms. Also
regularize the few platform-specific Makefiles that did pay attention to
SHLIB_LINK: it seems that the real value of that is to pull in BE_DLLLIBS,
so do that instead. Per buildfarm failures on cygwin.
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.
where to install DATA and DOCS files. This is mainly intended to allow
versioned installation, eg, install into contrib/fooM.N/ rather than
directly into contrib/.

Update install-sh to that from Autoconf 2.63, plus our Darwin-specific
changes (which I simplified a bit). install-sh is now able to install
multiple files in one run, so we could simplify our makefiles sometime.
install-sh also now has a -d option to create directories, so we don't need
mkinstalldirs anymore.
Use AC_PROG_MKDIR_P in configure.in, so we can use mkdir -p when available
instead of install-sh -d. For consistency with the rest of the world,
the corresponding make variable has been renamed from $(mkinstalldirs) to
$(MKDIR_P).
another section if required by the platform (instead of the old way of
building them in section "l" and always transforming them to the
platform-specific section).
This speeds up the installation on common platforms, and it avoids some
funny business with the man page tools and build process.
modules are built. Foremost, it creates a solid distinction between these two
types of targets based on what had already been implemented and duplicated in
ad hoc ways before. Specifically,
- Dynamically loadable modules no longer get a soname. The numbers previously
set in the makefiles were dummy numbers anyway, and the presence of a soname
upset a few packaging tools, so it is nicer not to have one.
- The cumbersome detour taken on installation (build a libfoo.so.0.0.0 and
then override the rule to install foo.so instead) is removed.
- Lots of duplicated code simplified.
has been reinvented about four different times throughout history (aix,
cygwin, win32, darwin/linux) and a lot of the concepts are actually shared,
which the code now shows better.
Oleg Bartunov and Teodor Sigaev, but I did a lot of editorializing,
so anything that's broken is probably my fault.
Documentation is nonexistent as yet, but let's land the patch so we can
get some portability testing done.
installations whose pg_config program does not appear first in the PATH.
Per gripe from Eddie Stanley and subsequent discussions with Fabien Coelho
and others.
pg_regress: there's no other way to cope with testing a relocated
installation. Seems better to call it --psqldir though, since the
only thing we need to find in that case is psql. It'd be better if
we could use find_other_exec, but that's not happening unless we are
willing to install pg_regress alongside psql, which seems unlikely
to happen.
This allows it to be used on Windows without installing mingw
(though you do still need 'diff'), and opens the door to future
improvements such as message localization.

no evidence that any currently-supported platform needs this, and good
reason to think that any platform that did need it couldn't use the static
libraries anyway --- libpq, at least, has circular references. Removing
the code shuts up tsort warnings about the circular references on some
platforms.
of postgres.imp file into BE_DLLLIBS macro. This makes the AIX build
work more like the Windows and Darwin builds, which have similar requirements
to mention a backend library when linking shared libraries that will be
dynamically loaded into the backend.
for testing PLs and contrib_regression for testing contrib, instead of
overwriting the core system's regression database as formerly done.

in terms of macro 'rpathdir', as I proposed a few weeks ago. In itself
this commit shouldn't change the behavior at all, but it opens the door
to using special rpaths for the PL shared libraries, as seems to be
needed for plperl in particular.

should be carried over to the other two as well, but will refrain
pending suggestions from people who actually use those platforms).

method. Fix a number of places where shared libraries were linked without
mentioning all the libraries they depend on; the Darwin and AIX ports
are known to require this, and it doesn't seem to hurt any other supported
platforms. (Hence, remove code in pl/tcl makefile that tried to avoid
mentioning other libs if not needed.)
