| | | | | | | | that's selecting into a RECORD variable returns zero rows, make it assign an all-nulls row to the RECORD; this is consistent with what happens when the SELECT INTO target is not a RECORD. In support of this, tweak the SPI code so that a valid tuple descriptor is returned even when a SPI select returns no rows.

* IN clauses appearing at top level of WHERE can now be handled as joins.Tom Lane2003-01-20
| | | | | | | | | | There are two implementation techniques: the executor understands a new JOIN_IN jointype, which emits at most one matching row per left-hand row, or the result of the IN's sub-select can be fed through a DISTINCT filter and then joined as an ordinary relation. Along the way, some minor code cleanup in the optimizer; notably, break out most of the jointree-rearrangement preprocessing in planner.c and put it in a new file prep/prepjointree.c.
* This patch includes a lot of minor cleanups to the SGML documentation,Bruce Momjian2003-01-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | including: - replacing all the appropriate usages of <citetitle>PostgreSQL ...</citetitle> with &cite-user;, &cite-admin;, and so on - fix an omission in the EXECUTE documentation - add some more text to the EXPLAIN documentation - improve the PL/PgSQL RETURN NEXT documentation (more work to do here) - minor markup fixes Neil Conway

* Fix parse_agg.c to detect ungrouped Vars in sub-SELECTs; remove codeTom Lane2003-01-17
| | | | | | | that used to do it in planner. That was an ancient kluge that was never satisfactory; errors should be detected at parse time when possible. But at the time we didn't have the support mechanism (expression_tree_walker et al) to make it convenient to do in the parser.
* Adjust API of expression_tree_mutator and query_tree_mutator toTom Lane2003-01-17

* Repair an embarrassingly large number of alphabetization mistakes in theTom Lane2003-01-16

* Now that switch_outer processing no longer relies on being run afterTom Lane2003-01-15
| | | | | | | join_references(), it's practical to consolidate all join_references() processing into the set_plan_references traversal in setrefs.c. This seems considerably cleaner than the old way where we did it for join quals in createplan.c and for targetlists in setrefs.c.

* Allow merge and hash joins to occur on arbitrary expressions (anything notTom Lane2003-01-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | containing a volatile function), rather than only on 'Var = Var' clauses as before. This makes it practical to do flatten_join_alias_vars at the start of planning, which in turn eliminates a bunch of klugery inside the planner to deal with alias vars. As a free side effect, we now detect implied equality of non-Var expressions; for example in SELECT ... WHERE a.x = b.y and b.y = 42 we will deduce a.x = 42 and use that as a restriction qual on a. Also, we can remove the restriction introduced 12/5/02 to prevent pullup of subqueries whose targetlists contain sublinks. Still TODO: make statistical estimation routines in selfuncs.c and costsize.c smarter about expressions that are more complex than plain Vars. The need for this is considerably greater now that we have to be able to estimate the suitability of merge and hash join techniques on such expressions.

* Patch from Kris Jurka to improve the performance of getImportedKeys().Barry Lind2003-01-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use explicit joins to avoid using the genetic query optimizer. Also fixed a regression test that was failing to compile. This change also cleans up how key names are reported as per: A change to the value of the FK_NAME column. Currently the returned value is the triggers arguments which look like "<unnamed>\000t2\000t1\000UNSPECIFIED\000a\000a\000" This was required for server versions < 7.3 when a user did not supply constraint names. Every constraint was named "<unnamed>" . 7.3 has enforced unique constraint names per table so unnamed foreign keys will have different names "$1", "$2" and so on. I've used logic along the lines of the following to preserve the unique names in the original scheme, but allow people who go to the trouble of naming their constraints to see them: if (triggerargs.startsWith("<unnamed>")) { fkname = [the whole ugly trigger args name originally used]; } else { fkname = [the actual fk name]; } Modified Files: jdbc/org/postgresql/jdbc1/AbstractJdbc1DatabaseMetaData.java jdbc/org/postgresql/test/jdbc2/optional/ConnectionPoolTest.java
