* Here is 4 file in tgz:Bruce Momjian2003-07-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the new timetravel.c, new timetravel.README (cut from spi/README and modified), modified timetravel.sql.in and modified timetravel.example. Features: - optionally 3 parameter for insert/update/delete user name - work with CREATE UNIQUE INDEX ixxx on table xxx (unique_field,time_off); (the original version was work with unique index on 6.5.0-6.5.3, and not work on 7.3.2,7.3.3) (before 6.5.0 and between 6.5.3 and 7.3.2 I dont know) - get_timetravel(tablename) function for check timetravel-status. - timetravel trigger not change oid of the active record. (it is not a good feature, because the old version is automatice prevent the paralel update with "where oid=nnn") B?jthe Zolt?n

This version has the seven fields I proposed, including "source". Here's an example that shows why I think it's valuable: regression=# \x Expanded display is on. regression=# select * from pg_settings where name = 'enable_seqscan'; -[ RECORD 1 ]----------- name | enable_seqscan setting | on context | user vartype | bool source | default min_val | max_val | regression=# update pg_settings set setting = 'off' where name = 'enable_seqscan'; -[ RECORD 1 ]--- set_config | off regression=# select * from pg_settings where name = 'enable_seqscan'; -[ RECORD 1 ]----------- name | enable_seqscan setting | off context | user vartype | bool source | session min_val | max_val | regression=# alter user postgres set enable_seqscan to 'off'; ALTER USER (log out and then back in again) regression=# \x Expanded display is on. regression=# select * from pg_settings where name = 'enable_seqscan'; -[ RECORD 1 ]----------- name | enable_seqscan setting | off context | user vartype | bool source | user min_val | max_val | In the first case, enable_seqscan is set to its default value. After setting it to off, it is obvious that the value has been changed for the session only. In the third case, you can see that the value has been set specifically for the user. Joe Conway

* This is a totally trivial patch for something that was a very minor nit thatBruce Momjian2003-07-27
| | | | | | | | | | | annoyed me the other day while I was documenting my current project. It makes pg_dump use the same layout for types as for tables, by putting "\n\t" before the first field and "\n" before the final ");" Can't really justify this too much except to say I had an itch and I scratched it ;-) Andrew Dunstan
* here are the patches for psql on Win32:Bruce Momjian2003-07-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | psql4win32.patch - changes in the psql source code psql-ref.patch - changes in the documentation psql-ref.sgml (for new builtin variable WIN32_CONSOLE) To apply them use "patch -p 1" in the root directory of the postgres source directory. These patches fix the following problems of psql on Win32 (all changes only have effect #ifdef WIN32): a) Problem: Static library libpq.a did not work Solution: Added WSAStartup() in fe-connect.c b) Problem: Secret Password was echoed by psql Solution: Password echoing disabled in sprompt.c c) Problem: 8bit characters were displayed/interpreted wrong in psql This is due to the fact that the Win32 "console" uses a different encoding than the rest of the Windows system Solution: Introduced a new psql variable WIN32_CONSOLE When set with "\set WIN32_console", the function OemToChar() is applied after reading input and CharToOem() before displaying Output Christoph Dalitz

I can't see much value in aliasing it if it's > const, either. OK; the only change in this version is "isconst = false;". Now you can use $0 as a result placeholder if desired. E.g.: create or replace function tmp(anyelement, anyelement) returns anyarray as ' declare v_ret alias for $0; v_el1 alias for $1; v_el2 alias for $2; begin v_ret := ARRAY[v_el1, v_el2]; return v_ret; end; ' language 'plpgsql'; create table f(f1 text, f2 text, f3 int, f4 int); insert into f values ('a','b',1,2); insert into f values ('z','x',3,4); select tmp(f1,f2) from f; select tmp(f3,f4) from f; Joe Conway

* At long last I put together a patch to support 4 client SSL negotiationBruce Momjian2003-07-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | modes (and replace the requiressl boolean). The four options were first spelled out by Magnus Hagander <mha@sollentuna.net> on 2000-08-23 in email to pgsql-hackers, archived here: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2000-08/msg00639.php My original less-flexible patch and the ensuing thread are archived at: http://dbforums.com/t623845.html Attached is a new patch, including documentation. To sum up, there's a new client parameter "sslmode" and environment variable "PGSSLMODE", with these options: sslmode description ------- ----------- disable Unencrypted non-SSL only allow Negotiate, prefer non-SSL prefer Negotiate, prefer SSL (default) require Require SSL The only change to the server is a new pg_hba.conf line type, "hostnossl", for specifying connections that are not allowed to use SSL (for example, to prevent servers on a local network from accidentally using SSL and wasting cycles). Thus the 3 pg_hba.conf line types are: pg_hba.conf line types ---------------------- host applies to either SSL or regular connections hostssl applies only to SSL connections hostnossl applies only to regular connections These client and server options, the postgresql.conf ssl = false option, and finally the possibility of compiling with no SSL support at all, make quite a range of combinations to test. I threw together a test script to try many of them out. It's in a separate tarball with its config files, a patch to psql so it'll announce SSL connections even in absence of a tty, and the test output. The test is especially informative when run on the same tty the postmaster was started on, so the FATAL: errors during negotiation are interleaved with the psql client output. I saw Tom write that new submissions for 7.4 have to be in before midnight local time, and since I'm on the east coast in the US, this just makes it in before the bell. :) Jon Jensen

* Recent patch to dump nondefault attstorage settings broke pg_dump forTom Lane2003-07-25
| | | | | | | dropped columns. Fix by using LEFT JOIN rather than straight join between pg_attribute and pg_type. Also, use pg_type.oid as input to format_type, so that we don't get a failure on deleted types of deleted columns (this may be a change we ought to backpatch to 7.3....).

Ok.. that works. I must say it's a little strange being able to take a constant and say its no longer constant anymore -- but I suppose it's no different than defining then undefining pre-processor constants.
