* Replace strncpy with strlcpy in selected places that seem possibly relevantTom Lane2006-09-27
| | | | | | | to performance. (A wholesale effort to get rid of strncpy should be undertaken sometime, but not during beta.) This commit also fixes dynahash.c to correctly truncate overlength string keys for hashtables, so that its callers don't have to anymore.
* Add strlcpy() to the set of functions supported by src/port/ when notTom Lane2006-09-27

Also fix a passel of unsafe usages of <ctype.h> functions, that is, ye olde char-vs-unsigned-char issue. I won't miss <ctype.h> when we are finally able to stop using it.

* Change patternsel (LIKE/regex selectivity estimation) so that if thereTom Lane2006-09-20
| | | | | | | | | is a large enough histogram, it will use the number of matches in the histogram to derive a selectivity estimate, rather than the admittedly pretty bogus heuristics involving examining the pattern contents. I set 'large enough' at 100, but perhaps we should change that later. Also apply the same technique in contrib/ltree's <@ and @> estimator. Per discussion with Stefan Kaltenbrunner and Matteo Beccati.

* Improvements to the partitioning documentation. Original patch from GregNeil Conway2006-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | Stark, additional fixes and editorialization by Neil Conway. Greg's patch description: Some more doc patches for partitioned tables. In particular replace the caveat that INCLUDING CONSTRAINTS doesn't exist and replace it with documentation of, well, INCLUDING CONSTRAINTS. Also, there was an instance of "LIKE WITH DEFAULTS" which is actually spelled "LIKE INCLUDING DEFAULTS".
