1. Solve the problem of not having TOAST references hiding inside composite values by establishing the rule that toasting only goes one level deep: a tuple can contain toasted fields, but a composite-type datum that is to be inserted into a tuple cannot. Enforcing this in heap_formtuple is relatively cheap and it avoids a large increase in the cost of running the tuptoaster during final storage of a row. 2. Fix some interesting problems in expansion of inherited queries that reference whole-row variables. We never really did this correctly before, but it's now relatively painless to solve by expanding the parent's whole-row Var into a RowExpr() selecting the proper columns from the child. If you dike out the preventive check in CheckAttributeType(), composite-type columns now seem to actually work. However, we surely cannot ship them like this --- without I/O for composite types, you can't get pg_dump to dump tables containing them. So a little more work still to do. |

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 several language bindings, including C and Tcl. The JDBC, ODBC, C++, and Python 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/.
