* | Replace strncpy with strlcpy in selected places that seem possibly relevant | Tom Lane | 2006-09-27 | |
| | | | | | | | 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 not | Tom Lane | 2006-09-27 | |
| | | | | | available directly on the platform. Per discussion, this function is sufficiently widely recognized to be treated as standard. | |||
* | Fix some misuses of strncat(). | Tom Lane | 2006-09-27 | |
| | ||||
* | Remove separate strdup.h header file; it's redundant with port.h. | Tom Lane | 2006-09-27 | |
| | ||||
* | GiST stands for "Generalized Search Tree", and therefore should not be | Neil Conway | 2006-09-27 | |
| | | | | spelled with a capital "I". | |||
* | Degrade the transaction-id wraparound point message from LOG to DEBUG1, per | Alvaro Herrera | 2006-09-26 | |
| | | | | | | discussion. Patch from Simon Riggs. | |||

* | Added Joachim's changes for MinGW. | Michael Meskes | 2006-09-26 | |
| | | | | Added SET DATESTYLE to one test so the output format is defined. | |||
* | Increase default value of effective_cache_size to 128MB, per discussion. | Tom Lane | 2006-09-25 | |
| | ||||
* | Add a check to prevent overwriting valid data if smgrnblocks() gives a | Tom Lane | 2006-09-25 | |
| | | | | | | wrong answer, as has been seen to occur with a buggy Linux kernel. Not really our bug, but it's a simple test in a seldom-used control path, so might as well have a defense. | |||
* | More incremental improvements for the release notes. | Neil Conway | 2006-09-25 | |
| | ||||
* | no-data-for-failed-tables is a pg_restore option, not a pg_dump option. | Tom Lane | 2006-09-25 | |
| | ||||
* | Fix notice message from DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS, and improve message | Tom Lane | 2006-09-25 | |
| | | | | for DROP AGGREGATE IF EXISTS. Per report from Teodor. | |||

| | ||||
* | Fix incorrect mapping of fopen mode 'a' in recently-added code to | Tom Lane | 2006-09-24 | |
| | | | | make fopen work safely on Windows. Magnus | |||
* | Cause pg_regress to invoke the temporary postmaster as 'postgres' not | Tom Lane | 2006-09-24 | |
| | | | | | | 'postmaster', so as not to depend on the existence of the postmaster symlink. Also, implement postmaster-still-alive and postmaster-kill operations for Windows, per Magnus. | |||
* | Suppress useless warning on pre-XP versions of Windows. Magnus | Tom Lane | 2006-09-24 | |
| | ||||
* | Tag us Beta1REL8_2_BETA1 | PostgreSQL Daemon | 2006-09-23 | |
| | ||||
* | Fix pg_locks view to call advisory locks advisory locks, while preserving | Tom Lane | 2006-09-22 | |
| | | | | | backward compatibility for anyone using the old userlock code that's now on pgfoundry --- locks from that code still show as 'userlock'. | |||
* | Fix bugs in plpgsql and ecpg caused by assuming that isspace() would only | Tom Lane | 2006-09-22 | |
| | | | | | | | | | return true for exactly the characters treated as whitespace by their flex scanners. Per report from Victor Snezhko and subsequent investigation. 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. | |||
* | Surely this temp buffer needn't be static. | Tom Lane | 2006-09-22 | |
| | ||||
* | Rearrange yes/no prompting code so that the prompts always show the | Peter Eisentraut | 2006-09-22 | |
| | | | | | | | (possibly (un)translated) letters that are actually expected as input. Also reject invalid responses instead of silenty taken them as "no". with help from Bernd Helmle | |||
* | Add to major release notes items, per Simon. | Bruce Momjian | 2006-09-22 | |
| | ||||
* | Add units to the default postgresql.conf. For the most part, this should | Peter Eisentraut | 2006-09-22 | |
| | | | | | match what SHOW displays as default value, to make the user experience uniform. | |||
* | Move incorrectly-located indexterm entry. | Tom Lane | 2006-09-22 | |
| | ||||
* | Update timezone documentation to reflect current reality: instead of | Tom Lane | 2006-09-22 | |
| | | | | | giving tables of known timezone names, refer the user to the system views. Joachim Wieland | |||
* | Update release notes to only use HTML4 entities. | Bruce Momjian | 2006-09-22 | |
| | | | | Add URL's to mention proper entity lists. | |||
* | We're going to have to spell dotless i as plain i, because dotless i is | Tom Lane | 2006-09-22 | |
| | | | | | | not in the character set supported by DocBook nor standard HTML. (Sorry Volkan.) Also replace random character-set references by a pointer to the actual standard. | |||
* | Fix a lot of broken markup. | Tom Lane | 2006-09-22 | |
| | ||||
* | Update release notes to be current as of CVS today. | Bruce Momjian | 2006-09-22 | |
| | ||||
* | Update major release note items. | Bruce Momjian | 2006-09-22 | |
| | ||||
* | First try at a major features list for 8.2. | Bruce Momjian | 2006-09-22 | |
| | ||||
* | Fix free space map to correctly track the total amount of FSM space needed | Tom Lane | 2006-09-21 | |
| | | | | | | | even when a single relation requires more than max_fsm_pages pages. Also, make VACUUM emit a warning in this case, since it likely means that VACUUM FULL or other drastic corrective measure is needed. Per reports from Jeff Frost and others of unexpected changes in the claimed max_fsm_pages need. | |||
* | Add comments about STORAGE option for GIN | Teodor Sigaev | 2006-09-21 | |
| | ||||
* | Fix table's caption | Teodor Sigaev | 2006-09-21 | |
| | ||||
* | Updated several parts in particular variable handling. This is work that was ↵ | Michael Meskes | 2006-09-21 | |
| | | | | part of SoC. | |||
* | Wording changes for continuous archving, per Simon. | Bruce Momjian | 2006-09-21 | |
| | ||||
* | Add documentation for new in-core advisory lock functions. Merlin Moncure | Tom Lane | 2006-09-20 | |
| | ||||
* | Add URL for domain casting: | Bruce Momjian | 2006-09-20 | |

* | Update release notes to use scaron, rather than numeric code for entity. | Bruce Momjian | 2006-09-20 | |
| | ||||
* | Fix bogus markup. | Tom Lane | 2006-09-20 | |
| | ||||
* | Add AIX shared library support item to release notes. | Bruce Momjian | 2006-09-20 | |
| | ||||
* | Change patternsel (LIKE/regex selectivity estimation) so that if there | Tom Lane | 2006-09-20 | |
| | | | | | | | | | 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. | |||
* | Release note wording improvement. | Bruce Momjian | 2006-09-20 | |
| | | | | Alvaro. | |||
* | Add shared linking information to AIX FAQ. | Bruce Momjian | 2006-09-20 | |
| | | | | Laurenz Albe | |||
* | Improvements to the partitioning documentation. Original patch from Greg | Neil Conway | 2006-09-20 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | 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". |
