Clean up inconsistent coding practices for handling Index values and booleans, too. 2001-01-07 18:14 tgl * src/backend/access/heap/heapam.c: Correct nasty error in heap_update: it was releasing the buffer refcount before calling RelationInvalidateHeapTuple(), which is bad because the latter needs to look at the tuple data, which is in the shared disk buffer. If another backend manages to recycle the buffer while this is going on, we will compute the wrong hashindex for the tuple or maybe even crash outright. Must hold buffer refcount until afterwards.

Just for added luck, change reading of CONST nodes so that we do not need to consult pg_type rows while reading them; this means that no database access occurs during stringToNode. This requires changing the order in which const-node fields are written, which means an initdb is forced. 2001-01-06 20:05 tgl * src/backend/commands/command.c: Clean up checking of relkind for ALTER TABLE and LOCK TABLE commands.

This is done by disabling multi-byte awareness when it's not necessary. This is kind of a workaround, not a perfect solution. However, there is no ideal way to parse broken multi-byte character sequences. So I guess this is the best way what we could do right now... 2001-01-05 21:48 inoue * src/backend/utils/cache/relcache.c: init_irels() is changed to be called in RelationCacheInitializePhase2() so that transactional control could guarantee the consistency. 2001-01-05 21:43 tgl * src/pl/plpgsql/src/pl_exec.c: Fix NOT NULL option for plpgsql variables (doesn't look like it could ever have worked...) 2001-01-05 21:39 tgl * src/pl/plpgsql/src/gram.y: Fix misplaced strdup(), which could lead to error messages referencing deallocated memory later on. 2001-01-05 18:54 tgl * src/: backend/utils/cache/catcache.c, backend/utils/cache/inval.c, include/utils/catcache.h: Rename and document some invalidation routines to make it clearer that they don't themselves flush any cache entries, only add to to-do lists that will be processed later. 2001-01-05 02:34 tgl * doc/src/sgml/advanced.sgml, doc/src/sgml/inherit.sgml, doc/src/sgml/ref/alter_table.sgml, doc/src/sgml/ref/create_table.sgml, src/backend/nodes/copyfuncs.c, src/backend/nodes/equalfuncs.c, src/backend/parser/analyze.c, src/backend/parser/gram.y, src/backend/parser/parse_clause.c, src/backend/parser/keywords.c, src/backend/tcop/utility.c, src/bin/pgaccess/lib/help/create_table.hlp, src/bin/pgaccess/lib/help/inheritance.hlp, src/include/nodes/parsenodes.h, src/include/parser/parse_clause.h, src/interfaces/ecpg/preproc/keywords.c, src/interfaces/ecpg/preproc/preproc.y, src/test/regress/sql/inherit.sql, src/test/regress/expected/inherit.out: Remove not-really-standard implementation of CREATE TABLE's UNDER clause, and revert documentation to describe the existing INHERITS clause instead, per recent discussion in pghackers. Also fix implementation of SQL_inheritance SET variable: it is not cool to look at this var during the initial parsing phase, only during parse_analyze(). See recent bug report concerning misinterpretation of date constants just after a SET TIMEZONE command. gram.y really has to be an invariant transformation of the query string to a raw parsetree; anything that can vary with time must be done during parse analysis. 2001-01-04 22:58 tgl * src/backend/commands/creatinh.c: Disallow creation of a child table by a user who does not own the parent table, per pghackers discussion around 22-Dec-00. 2001-01-04 13:58 petere * configure, configure.in: Allow NetBSD's libedit to be used instead of GNU Readline.

The first fix fixes the PreparedStatement object to not allocate unnecessary objects when converting native types to Stings. The old code used the following format: (new Integer(x)).toString() whereas this can more efficiently be occompilshed by: Integer.toString(x); avoiding the unnecessary object creation. The second fix is to release some resources on the close() of a ResultSet. Currently the close() method on ResultSet is a noop. The purpose of the close() method is to release resources when the ResultSet is no longer needed. The fix is to free the tuples cached by the ResultSet when it is closed (by clearing out the Vector object that stores the tuples). This is important for my application, as I have a cache of Statement objects that I reuse. Since the Statement object maintains a reference to the ResultSet and the ResultSet kept references to the old tuples, my cache was holding on to a lot of memory.

However I noticed that the encoding that is used isn't obtained from the DB. Since Java uses unicode UCS2 internally the character set encoding is used to translate strings from/to the DB encoding. So it seems logical that the code would get the encoding from the DB instead of the current method of requiring the user pass it as a parameter. Attached is a patch that gets the DB encoding from the DB in the same manner as is done in libpq/fe-connect.c. The patch is created off of the latest CVS sources (Connection.java version 1.10).

A session lock is not released at transaction commit (but it is released on transaction abort, to ensure recovery after an elog(ERROR)). In VACUUM, use a session lock to protect the master table while vacuuming a TOAST table, so that the TOAST table can be done in an independent transaction. I also took this opportunity to do some cleanup and renaming in the lock code. The previously noted bug in ProcLockWakeup, that it couldn't wake up any waiters beyond the first non-wakeable waiter, is now fixed. Also found a previously unknown bug of the same kind (failure to scan all members of a lock queue in some cases) in DeadLockCheck.

This patch is in addition to the ones I mailed yesterday (forget had I changed that as well....) Michael Fork - CCNA - MCP - A+ Network Support - Toledo Internet Access - Toledo Ohio 2000-12-10 18:59 momjian * src/interfaces/odbc/info.c: Here is a diff to info.c in interfaces/odbc that updates SQLForeignKeys to return foreign key information based on the pg_trigger system table. I have tested the patch with (what I believe) is all possible primary/foreign key combinations -- however I may have missed some, so if anyone feels like taking the patch for a test drive, here are some useful links: Michael Fork 2000-12-10 18:37 momjian * doc/src/sgml/catalogs.sgml: Backout right-hand/left-hand. 2000-12-10 18:35 momjian * doc/src/sgml/catalogs.sgml: in catalog.sgml line 1324: "left-hand" should be "right-hand" BTW: new document looks very good!

(I did not force initdb, but you won't see the fix unless you do one.) Also, make sure all index support operators and functions are careful not to leak memory for toasted inputs; I had missed some hash and rtree support ops on this point before. 2000-12-08 18:21 tgl * src/: backend/storage/file/fd.c, include/storage/fd.h, backend/access/transam/xlog.c: Resurrect -F switch: it controls fsyncs again, though the fsyncs are mostly just on the WAL logfile nowadays.

The behavior this sought to disallow doesn't seem any less confusing than the other behaviors of cached sequences. Improve wording of some error messages, too. Update documentation accordingly. Also add an explanation that aborted transactions do not roll back their nextval() calls; this seems to be a FAQ, so it ought to be mentioned here... 2000-12-08 02:43 inoue * src/backend/commands/vacuum.c: Cache invalidation for vacuum of system tables. 2000-12-08 02:17 inoue * src/: backend/utils/cache/relcache.c, include/catalog/index.h, backend/catalog/index.c, backend/commands/indexcmds.c, backend/tcop/utility.c: REINDEX under WAL. 2000-12-07 20:11 tgl * src/pl/plperl/plperl.c: Improve error message for erroneous use of 'opaque' as plperl argument or return type. 2000-12-07 20:09 tgl * src/pl/tcl/pltcl.c: Improve error message for erroneous use of 'opaque' as pltcl argument or return type. 2000-12-07 20:03 tgl * src/pl/plpgsql/src/pl_comp.c: Improve error message for erroneous use of 'opaque' as plpgsql argument or return type. 2000-12-07 19:22 tgl * src/backend/utils/adt/oracle_compat.c: Change lpad() and rpad() to behave more Oracle-compatibly when target length is less than original string length. 2000-12-07 18:37 petere * doc/src/sgml/catalogs.sgml: typo correction 2000-12-07 15:43 petere * src/makefiles/: Makefile.bsdi, Makefile.freebsd, Makefile.netbsd, Makefile.openbsd, Makefile.sco: Do not use 'ar cq' to build library archives, use 'ar cr' instead. 2000-12-07 15:40 tgl * src/backend/catalog/pg_proc.c: checkretval() failed to cope with an empty SQL function body. 2000-12-07 14:38 tgl * src/: include/catalog/pg_proc.h, backend/utils/adt/date.c, backend/utils/adt/timestamp.c: Make OVERLAPS operators conform to SQL92 spec regarding NULL handling. As I read it, the spec requires a non-null result in some cases where one of the inputs is NULL: specifically, if the other endpoint of that interval is between the endpoints of the other interval, then the result is known TRUE despite the missing endpoint. The spec could've been a lot simpler if they did not intend this behavior. I did not force an initdb for this change, but if you don't do one you'll still see the old strict-function behavior.
