* Doc: add XML ID attributes to <sectN> and <varlistentry> tags.Tom Lane2023-01-09
| | | | | | | | | This doesn't have any external effect at the moment, but it will allow adding useful link-discoverability features later. Brar Piening, reviewed by Karl Pinc. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAB8KJ=jpuQU9QJe4+RgWENrK5g9jhoysMw2nvTN_esoOU0=a_w@mail.gmail.com
* Fix behavior of AND CHAIN outside of explicit transaction blocksPeter Eisentraut2019-09-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When using COMMIT AND CHAIN or ROLLBACK AND CHAIN not in an explicit transaction block, the previous implementation would leave a transaction block active in the ROLLBACK case but not the COMMIT case. To fix for now, error out when using these commands not in an explicit transaction block. This restriction could be lifted if a sensible definition and implementation is found.

* Transaction chainingPeter Eisentraut2019-03-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Add command variants COMMIT AND CHAIN and ROLLBACK AND CHAIN, which start new transactions with the same transaction characteristics as the just finished one, per SQL standard. Support for transaction chaining in PL/pgSQL is also added. This functionality is especially useful when running COMMIT in a loop in PL/pgSQL.

* Convert documentation to DocBook XMLPeter Eisentraut2017-11-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since some preparation work had already been done, the only source changes left were changing empty-element tags like <xref linkend="foo"> to <xref linkend="foo"/>, and changing the DOCTYPE. The source files are still named *.sgml, but they are actually XML files now. Renaming could be considered later. In the build system, the intermediate step to convert from SGML to XML is removed. Everything is build straight from the source files again. The OpenSP (or the old SP) package is no longer needed. The documentation toolchain instructions are updated and are much simpler now.

* Convert SGML IDs to lower casePeter Eisentraut2017-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | IDs in SGML are case insensitive, and we have accumulated a mix of upper and lower case IDs, including different variants of the same ID. In XML, these will be case sensitive, so we need to fix up those differences. Going to all lower case seems most straightforward, and the current build process already makes all anchors and lower case anyway during the SGML->XML conversion, so this doesn't create any difference in the output right now. A future XML-only build process would, however, maintain any mixed case ID spellings in the output, so that is another reason to clean this up beforehand.

* Don't use SGML empty tagsPeter Eisentraut2017-10-17
| | | | | | | | For DocBook XML compatibility, don't use SGML empty tags (</>) anymore, replace by the full tag name. Add a warning option to catch future occurrences. Alexander Lakhin, Jürgen Purtz
* doc: Improve DocBook XML validityPeter Eisentraut2014-02-23
| | | | | | | | | | | DocBook XML is superficially compatible with DocBook SGML but has a slightly stricter DTD that we have been violating in a few cases. Although XSLT doesn't care whether the document is valid, the style sheets don't necessarily process invalid documents correctly, so we need to work toward fixing this. This first commit moves the indexterms in refentry elements to an allowed position. It has no impact on the output.
* Fix a whitespace issue with the man pagesPeter Eisentraut2011-08-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is what may actually be a mistake in our markup. The problem is in a situation like <para> <command>FOO</command> is ... there is strictly speaking a line break before "FOO". In the HTML output, this does not appear to be a problem, but in the man page output, this shows up, so you get double blank lines at odd places. So far, we have attempted to work around this with an XSL hack, but that causes other problems, such as creating run-ins in places like <acronym>SQL</acronym> <command>COPY</command> So fix the problem properly by removing the extra whitespace. I only fixed the problems that affect the man page output, not all the places.

* Remove unnecessary xref endterm attributes and title idsPeter Eisentraut2010-04-03
| | | | | | | | | The endterm attribute is mainly useful when the toolchain does not support automatic link target text generation for a particular situation. In the past, this was required by the man page tools for all reference page links, but that is no longer the case, and it now actually gets in the way of proper automatic link text generation. The only remaining use cases are currently xrefs to refsects.
* Set SQL man pages to be section 7 by default, and only transform them toPeter Eisentraut2008-11-14
| | | | | | | | | another section if required by the platform (instead of the old way of building them in section "l" and always transforming them to the platform-specific section). This speeds up the installation on common platforms, and it avoids some funny business with the man page tools and build process.

| | | | | | | | | capabilities of specifying time zones as intervals per SQL9x. Put refentrytitle contents on the same line as the tag. Otherwise, leading whitespace is propagated into the product, which (at least) messes up the ToC layout. Remove (some) docinfo tags containing dates. Best to omit if the dates are not accurate; maybe use CVS dates instead or leave them out.
