The existence of a btree opclass accepting composite types caused us to assume that every composite type is sortable. This isn't true of course; we need to check if the column types are all sortable. There was logic for this for the case of array comparison (ie, check that the element type is sortable), but we missed the point for rowtypes. Per Teodor's report of an ANALYZE failure for an unsortable composite type. Rather than just add some more ad-hoc logic for this, I moved knowledge of the issue into typcache.c. The typcache will now only report out array_eq, record_cmp, and friends as usable operators if the array or composite type will work with those functions. Unfortunately we don't have enough info to do this for anonymous RECORD types; in that case, just assume it will work, and take the runtime failure as before if it doesn't. This patch might be a candidate for back-patching at some point, but given the lack of complaints from the field, I'd rather just test it in HEAD for now. Note: most of the places touched in this patch will need further work when we get around to supporting hashing of record types. |

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: http://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. 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 http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
