Tom Lane a4996a8953 Replace the parser's namespace tree (which formerly had the same
representation as the jointree) with two lists of RTEs, one showing
the RTEs accessible by qualified names, and the other showing the RTEs
accessible by unqualified names.  I think this is conceptually simpler
than what we did before, and it's sure a whole lot easier to search.
This seems to eliminate the parse-time bottleneck for deeply nested
JOIN structures that was exhibited by phil@vodafone.

This directory does more than tokenize and parse SQL queries.  It also
creates Query structures for the various complex queries that is passed
to the optimizer and then executor.

parser.c	things start here
scan.l		break query into tokens
scansup.c	handle escapes in input
keywords.c	turn keywords into specific tokens
gram.y		parse the tokens and fill query-type-specific structures
analyze.c	handle post-parse processing for each query type
parse_clause.c	handle clauses like WHERE, ORDER BY, GROUP BY, ...
parse_coerce.c	used for coercing expressions of different types
parse_expr.c	handle expressions like col, col + 3, x = 3 or x = 4
parse_oper.c	handle operations in expressions
parse_agg.c	handle aggregates, like SUM(col1),  AVG(col2), ...
parse_func.c	handle functions, table.column and column identifiers
parse_node.c	create nodes for various structures
parse_target.c	handle the result list of the query
parse_relation.c support routines for tables and column handling
parse_type.c	support routines for type handling
