* The contents of command.c, creatinh.c, define.c, remove.c and rename.cTom Lane2002-04-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | have been divided according to the type of object manipulated - so ALTER TABLE code is in tablecmds.c, aggregate commands in aggregatecmds.c and so on. A few common support routines remain in define.c (prototypes in src/include/commands/defrem.h). No code has been changed except for includes to reflect the new files. The prototypes for aggregatecmds.c, functioncmds.c, operatorcmds.c, and typecmds.c remain in src/include/commands/defrem.h. From John Gray <jgray@azuli.co.uk>
* Checking to decide whether relations are system relations now dependsTom Lane2002-04-12
| | | | | on the namespace not the name; pg_ is not a reserved prefix for table names anymore. From Fernando Nasser.
* Reimplement temp tables using schemas. The temp table map is history;Tom Lane2002-03-31
| | | | temp table entries in pg_class have the names the user would expect.
* Mop-up some infelicities in new relation lookup handling.Tom Lane2002-03-29
|
* pg_type has a typnamespace column; system now supports creating typesTom Lane2002-03-29
| | | | | | in different namespaces. Also, cleanup work on relation namespace support: drop, alter, rename commands work for tables in non-default namespaces.
* pg_class has a relnamespace column. You can create and access tablesTom Lane2002-03-26
| | | | | | in schemas other than the system namespace; however, there's no search path yet, and not all operations work yet on tables outside the system namespace.
* A little further progress on schemas: push down RangeVars intoTom Lane2002-03-22
| | | | | | | addRangeTableEntry calls. Remove relname field from RTEs, since it will no longer be a useful unique identifier of relations; we want to encourage people to rely on the relation OID instead. Further work on dumping qual expressions in EXPLAIN, too.
* Change the aclchk.c routines to uniformly use OIDs to identify theTom Lane2002-03-21
| | | | | | objects to be privilege-checked. Some change in their APIs would be necessary no matter what in the schema environment, and simply getting rid of the name-based interface entirely seems like the best way.
* First phase of SCHEMA changes, concentrating on fixing the grammar andTom Lane2002-03-21
| | | | | | | | the parsetree representation. As yet we don't *do* anything with schema names, just drop 'em on the floor; but you can enter schema-compatible command syntax, and there's even a primitive CREATE SCHEMA command. No doc updates yet, except to note that you can now extract a field from a function-returning-row's result with (foo(...)).fieldname.
* Code review for DOMAIN patch.Tom Lane2002-03-20

* The attached patch cleans up the implementation of the TRUNCATE command;Bruce Momjian2002-03-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | in the current code, the authentication logic (check user, check the relation we're operating on, etc) is done in tcop/utility.c, whereas the actual TRUNCATE command in done in TruncateRelation() in commands/createinh.c (which is really just a wrapper over heap_truncate() in catalog/heap.c). This patch moves the authentication logic into TruncateRelation(), as well as making some minor code cleanups. Neil Conway
* Add DOMAIN support. Includes manual pages and regression tests, fromBruce Momjian2002-03-19

* Back out domain patch until it works properly.Bruce Momjian2002-03-07

* Ok. Updated patch attached.Bruce Momjian2002-03-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - domain.patch -> source patch against pgsql in cvs - drop_domain.sgml and create_domain.sgml -> New doc/src/sgml/ref docs - dominfo.txt -> basic domain related queries I used for testing [ ADDED TO /doc] Enables domains of array elements -> CREATE DOMAIN dom int4[3][2]; Uses a typbasetype column to describe the origin of the domain. Copies data to attnotnull rather than processing in execMain(). Some documentation differences from earlier. If this is approved, I'll start working on pg_dump, and a \dD <domain> option in psql, and regression tests. I don't really feel like doing those until the system table structure settles for pg_type. CHECKS when added, will also be copied to to the table attributes. FK Constraints (if I ever figure out how) will be done similarly. Both will lbe handled by MergeDomainAttributes() which is called shortly before MergeAttributes(). Rod Taylor
* Change made to elog:Bruce Momjian2002-03-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o Change all current CVS messages of NOTICE to WARNING. We were going to do this just before 7.3 beta but it has to be done now, as you will see below. o Change current INFO messages that should be controlled by client_min_messages to NOTICE. o Force remaining INFO messages, like from EXPLAIN, VACUUM VERBOSE, etc. to always go to the client. o Remove INFO from the client_min_messages options and add NOTICE. Seems we do need three non-ERROR elog levels to handle the various behaviors we need for these messages. Regression passed.

* pgindent run on all C files. Java run to follow. initdb/regressionBruce Momjian2001-10-25
| | | | tests pass.
* Sequences are now based on int8, not int4, arithmetic. SERIAL pseudo-typeTom Lane2001-08-16
| | | | | | | | has an alias SERIAL4 and a sister SERIAL8. SERIAL8 is just the same except the created column is type int8 not int4. initdb forced. Note this also breaks any chance of pg_upgrade from 7.1, unless we hack up pg_upgrade to drop and recreate sequences. (Which is not out of the question, but I don't wanna do it.)
* Make OIDs optional, per discussions in pghackers. WITH OIDS is still theTom Lane2001-08-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | default, but OIDS are removed from many system catalogs that don't need them. Some interesting side effects: TOAST pointers are 20 bytes not 32 now; pg_description has a three-column key instead of one. Bugs fixed in passing: BINARY cursors work again; pg_class.relhaspkey has some usefulness; pg_dump dumps comments on indexes, rules, and triggers in a valid order. initdb forced.
* Attached is documentation describing plperlu differences from plperl.Bruce Momjian2001-06-22

* Remove unused tables pg_variable, pg_inheritproc, pg_ipl tables. InitdbBruce Momjian2001-05-14

* Complain if the same column name is inherited from multiple parentsTom Lane2001-04-02
| | | | | | with different default values, unless the child table redeclares the column with an explicit default. This was judged to be the approach least likely to cause unpleasant surprises.
* Re-allow specification of a new default value for an inherited columnTom Lane2001-03-30
| | | | | | in CREATE TABLE, but give a warning notice. Clean up inconsistent handling of defaults and NOT NULL flags from multiply-inherited columns. Per pghackers discussion 28-Mar through 30-Mar.

* Fix all the places that called heap_update() and heap_delete() withoutTom Lane2001-01-23
| | | | | | | | | | | bothering to check the return value --- which meant that in case the update or delete failed because of a concurrent update, you'd not find out about it, except by observing later that the transaction produced the wrong outcome. There are now subroutines simple_heap_update and simple_heap_delete that should be used anyplace that you're not prepared to do the full nine yards of coping with concurrent updates. In practice, that seems to mean absolutely everywhere but the executor, because *noplace* else was checking.
* Disallow creation of a child table by a user who does not own the parentTom Lane2001-01-05
| | | | table, per pghackers discussion around 22-Dec-00.
* Small cleanup of temp-table handling. Disallow creation of a non-tempTom Lane2000-12-22
| | | | | | | table that inherits from a temp table. Make sure the right things happen if one creates a temp table, creates another temp that inherits from it, then renames the first one. (Previously, system would end up trying to delete the temp tables in the wrong order.)
* Change StoreCatalogInheritance() to work from a list of parent relationTom Lane2000-12-14
| | | | | | OIDs rather than names. Aside from being simpler and faster, this way doesn't blow up in the face of 'create temp table foo () inherits (foo)'. Which is a rather odd thing to do, but it seems some people want to.
* Change SearchSysCache coding conventions so that a reference count isTom Lane2000-11-16
| | | | | | | maintained for each cache entry. A cache entry will not be freed until the matching ReleaseSysCache call has been executed. This eliminates worries about cache entries getting dropped while still in use. See my posting to pg-hackers of even date for more info.
* SearchSysCacheTupleCopy() instead of SearchSysCache()Hiroshi Inoue2000-11-13

* Make DROP TABLE rollback-able: postpone physical file delete until commit.Tom Lane2000-11-08
| | | | | | | | | (WAL logging for this is not done yet, however.) Clean up a number of really crufty things that are no longer needed now that DROP behaves nicely. Make temp table mapper do the right things when drop or rename affecting a temp table is rolled back. Also, remove "relation modified while in use" error check, in favor of locking tables at first reference and holding that lock throughout the statement.
* First cut at full support for OUTER JOINs. There are still a few looseTom Lane2000-09-12
| | | | | ends to clean up (see my message of same date to pghackers), but mostly it works. INITDB REQUIRED!
* Subclasses inherit constraints of super classes properlyHiroshi Inoue2000-08-04
|
* Make toast-table creation and deletion work somewhat reliably.Tom Lane2000-07-04
| | | | | | | Don't go through pg_exec_query_dest(), but directly to the execution routines. Also, extend parameter lists so that there's no need to change the global setting of allowSystemTableMods, a hack that was certain to cause trouble in the event of any error.
* Back out pg_shadow changes to allow create table and locking permissions.Bruce Momjian2000-06-12

* I have large database and with this DB work more users and I very needBruce Momjian2000-06-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | more restriction for fretful users. The current PG allow define only NO-CREATE-DB and NO-CREATE-USER restriction, but for some users I need NO-CREATE-TABLE and NO-LOCK-TABLE. This patch add to current code NOCREATETABLE and NOLOCKTABLE feature: CREATE USER username [ WITH [ SYSID uid ] [ PASSWORD 'password' ] ] [ CREATEDB | NOCREATEDB ] [ CREATEUSER | NOCREATEUSER ] -> [ CREATETABLE | NOCREATETABLE ] [ LOCKTABLE | NOLOCKTABLE ] ...etc. If CREATETABLE or LOCKTABLE is not specific in CREATE USER command, as default is set CREATETABLE or LOCKTABLE (true). A user with NOCREATETABLE restriction can't call CREATE TABLE or SELECT INTO commands, only create temp table is allow for him. Karel

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The following patch extends the COMMENT ON functionality to the rest of the database objects beyond just tables, columns, and views. The grammer of the COMMENT ON statement now looks like: COMMENT ON [ [ DATABASE | INDEX | RULE | SEQUENCE | TABLE | TYPE | VIEW ] <objname> | COLUMN <relation>.<attribute> | AGGREGATE <aggname> <aggtype> | FUNCTION <funcname> (arg1, arg2, ...) | OPERATOR <op> (leftoperand_typ rightoperand_typ) | TRIGGER <triggername> ON relname> Mike Mascari (mascarim@yahoo.com)
* This patch implements ORACLE's COMMENT SQL command.Bruce Momjian1999-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | >From the ORACLE 7 SQL Language Reference Manual: ----------------------------------------------------- COMMENT Purpose: To add a comment about a table, view, snapshot, or column into the data dictionary. Prerequisites: The table, view, or snapshot must be in your own schema or you must have COMMENT ANY TABLE system privilege. Syntax: COMMENT ON [ TABLE table ] | [ COLUMN table.column] IS 'text' You can effectively drop a comment from the database by setting it to the empty string ''. ----------------------------------------------------- Example: COMMENT ON TABLE workorders IS 'Maintains base records for workorder information'; COMMENT ON COLUMN workorders.hours IS 'Number of hours the engineer worked on the task'; to drop a comment: COMMENT ON COLUMN workorders.hours IS ''; The current patch will simply perform the insert into pg_description, as per the TODO. And, of course, when the table is dropped, any comments relating to it or any of its attributes are also dropped. I haven't looked at the ODBC source yet, but I do know from an ODBC client standpoint that the standard does support the notion of table and column comments. Hopefully the ODBC driver is already fetching these values from pg_description, but if not, it should be trivial. Hope this makes the grade, Mike Mascari (mascarim@yahoo.com)
* Reimplement parsing and storage of default expressions and constraintTom Lane1999-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | expressions in CREATE TABLE. There is no longer an emasculated expression syntax for these things; it's full a_expr for constraints, and b_expr for defaults (unfortunately the fact that NOT NULL is a part of the column constraint syntax causes a shift/reduce conflict if you try a_expr. Oh well --- at least parenthesized boolean expressions work now). Also, stored expression for a column default is not pre-coerced to the column type; we rely on transformInsertStatement to do that when the default is actually used. This means "f1 datetime default 'now'" behaves the way people usually expect it to. BTW, all the support code is now there to implement ALTER TABLE ADD CONSTRAINT and ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN with a default value. I didn't actually teach ALTER TABLE to call it, but it wouldn't be much work.
