We have forboth() and forthree() macros that simplify iterating through several parallel lists, but not everyplace that could reasonably use those was doing so. Also invent forfour() and forfive() macros to do the same for four or five parallel lists, and use those where applicable. The immediate motivation for doing this is to reduce the number of ad-hoc lnext() calls, to reduce the footprint of a WIP patch. However, it seems like good cleanup and error-proofing anyway; the places that were combining forthree() with a manually iterated loop seem particularly illegible and bug-prone. There was some speculation about restructuring related parsetree representations to reduce the need for parallel list chasing of this sort. Perhaps that's a win, or perhaps not, but in any case it would be considerably more invasive than this patch; and it's not particularly related to my immediate goal of improving the List infrastructure. So I'll leave that question for another day. Patch by me; thanks to David Rowley for review. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/11587.1550975080@sss.pgh.pa.us |

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. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download 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. 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 https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
