A report from Andrew Dunstan showed that an ecpglib breakage that causes repeated query failures could lead to infinite loops in some ecpg test scripts, because they contain "while(1)" loops with no exit condition other than successful test completion. That might be all right for manual testing, but it seems entirely unacceptable for automated test environments such as our buildfarm. We don't want buildfarm owners to have to intervene manually when a test goes wrong. To fix, just change all those while(1) loops to exit after at most 100 iterations (which is more than any of them expect to iterate). This seems sufficient since we'd see discrepancies in the test output if any loop executed the wrong number of times. I tested this by dint of intentionally breaking ecpg_do_prologue to always fail, and verifying that the tests still got to completion. Back-patch to all supported branches, since the whole point of this exercise is to protect the buildfarm against future mistakes. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/18693.1548302004@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/.
