* Fix low-probability bug in relcache startup: write_irels wrote theTom Lane2000-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | pg_internal.init file in-place, which meant that if another backend started at about the same time, it might read the incomplete file. init_irels tries to guard against that, but I have now seen a crash due to reading bad data from a partly-written file. (This may indicate a kernel bug on my platform? Not sure.) Anyway, clearly the safest course is to write the new pg_internal.init file under a unique temporary filename, and rename it into place only after it's all written.

* I have tested the beta3 on WinNT and here are the results:Bruce Momjian2000-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - I was unable to compile ecpg due to the ":=" instead of "=" in defining LIBPQDIR and some other variables in Makefile.global.in - pg_id (and also pg_encoding) executable was not removed during "make clean" - there was no $(X) appended to the executable name for rm - I have added result for int2, int4, float8 and geometry regression tests - int2, int2 - yet another message for too large numbers ;-) - float8 - it is problably a bug in the newlib C library - it has no error message for numbers with exponent -400 - geometry - differences in precision of float numbers - I have added appropriate lines into resultmap file - I have modified the script regress.sh to use "case" statement when testing the hostname. For cygwin the script is called with "i686-pc-cygwin" (on my machine) as a parameter and this was not catched with the "if" statement. The check was done for PORTNAME (win) and not HOSTNAME (i.86-pc-cygwin*). The patch for described modifications is included. All this modifications can be applied to "current" tree too. The compilation was done on CygwinB20.1 with gcc 2.95, cygipc library 1.05. The binaries were able to run also on the newest development snapshot (2000-03-25). Dan

* Update alpha templates as suggested by SL Baur and Adriaan Joubert.Tom Lane2000-03-31
| | | | | | Make similar changes to hpux templates. Might want to do the same for other foo_cc and foo_gcc pairs, but will desist until I hear from someone who uses those platforms.
* Use the CXXFLAGS exported by configure (amazingly, we weren't before!)Tom Lane2000-03-31

* Get rid of SetBufferWriteMode(), which was an accident waiting to happen.Tom Lane2000-03-31
| | | | | | | | In the event of an elog() while the mode was set to immediate write, there was no way for it to be set back to the normal delayed write. The mechanism was a waste of space and cycles anyway, since the only user was varsup.c, which could perfectly well call FlushBuffer directly. Now it does just that, and the notion of a write mode is gone.
