* Changes the APIs to the timezone functions to take a pg_tz pointer as an argument, representing the timezone to use for the selected operation. * Adds a global_timezone variable that represents the current timezone in the backend as set by SET TIMEZONE (or guc, or env, etc). * Implements a hash-table cache of loaded tables, so we don't have to read and parse the TZ file everytime we change a timezone. While not necesasry now (we don't change timezones very often), I beleive this will be necessary (or at least good) when "multiple timezones in the same query" is eventually implemented. And code-wise, this was the time to do it. There are no user-visible changes at this time. Implementing the "multiple zones in one query" is a later step... This also gets rid of some of the cruft needed to "back out a timezone change", since we previously couldn't check a timezone unless it was activated first. Passes regression tests on win32, linux (slackware 10) and solaris x86. Magnus Hagander |

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. The JDBC, ODBC, C++, Python, and Tcl interfaces have been moved to the PostgreSQL Projects Web Site at http://gborg.postgresql.org for separate maintenance. A Perl DBI/DBD driver is available from CPAN. See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the file HISTORY. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
