* Type names should not be quotedAlvaro Herrera2016-04-01
| | | | | | | | | Our actual convention, contrary to what I said in 59a2111b23f, is not to quote type names, as evidenced by unquoted use of format_type_be() result value in error messages. Remove quotes from recently tweaked messages accordingly. Per note from Tom Lane
* Improve internationalization of messages involving type namesAlvaro Herrera2016-03-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change the slightly different variations of the message function FOO must return type BAR to a single wording, removing the variability in type name so that they all create a single translation entry; since the type name is not to be translated, there's no point in it being part of the message anyway. Also, change them all to use the same quoting convention, namely that the function name is not to be quoted but the type name is. (I'm not quite sure why this is so, but it's the clear majority.) Some similar messages such as "encoding conversion function FOO must ..." are also changed.
* Fix DROP OPERATOR to reset oprcom/oprnegate links to the dropped operator.Tom Lane2016-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | This avoids leaving dangling links in pg_operator; which while fairly harmless are also unsightly. While we're at it, simplify OperatorUpd, which went through heap_modify_tuple for no very good reason considering it had already made a tuple copy it could just scribble on.

* Fix ALTER OPERATOR to update dependencies properly.Tom Lane2015-12-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix an oversight in commit 321eed5f0f7563a0: replacing an operator's selectivity functions needs to result in a corresponding update in pg_depend. We have a function that can handle that, but it was not called by AlterOperator(). To fix this without enlarging pg_operator.h's #include list beyond what clients can safely include, split off the function definitions into a new file pg_operator_fn.h, similarly to what we've done for some other catalog header files. It's not entirely clear whether any client-side code needs to include pg_operator.h, but it seems prudent to assume that there is some such code somewhere.
* Fix event trigger support for the new ALTER OPERATOR command.Heikki Linnakangas2015-07-14
| | | | | Also, the lock on pg_operator should not be released until end of transaction.
* Add ALTER OPERATOR command, for changing selectivity estimator functions.Heikki Linnakangas2015-07-14
| | | | | | | | | Other options cannot be changed, as it's not totally clear if cached plans would need to be invalidated if one of the other options change. Selectivity estimator functions only change plan costs, not correctness of plans, so those should be safe. Original patch by Uriy Zhuravlev, heavily edited by me.
* Allow named parameters to be specified using => in addition to :=Robert Haas2015-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SQL has standardized on => as the use of to specify named parameters, and we've wanted for many years to support the same syntax ourselves, but this has been complicated by the possible use of => as an operator name. In PostgreSQL 9.0, we began emitting a warning when an operator named => was defined, and in PostgreSQL 9.2, we stopped shipping a =>(text, text) operator as part of hstore. By the time the next major version of PostgreSQL is released, => will have been deprecated for a full five years, so hopefully there won't be too many people still relying on it. We continue to support := for compatibility with previous PostgreSQL releases. Pavel Stehule, reviewed by Petr Jelinek, with a few documentation tweaks by me.
* Change many routines to return ObjectAddress rather than OIDAlvaro Herrera2015-03-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The changed routines are mostly those that can be directly called by ProcessUtilitySlow; the intention is to make the affected object information more precise, in support for future event trigger changes. Originally it was envisioned that the OID of the affected object would be enough, and in most cases that is correct, but upon actually implementing the event trigger changes it turned out that ObjectAddress is more widely useful. Additionally, some command execution routines grew an output argument that's an object address which provides further info about the executed command. To wit: * for ALTER DOMAIN / ADD CONSTRAINT, it corresponds to the address of the new constraint * for ALTER OBJECT / SET SCHEMA, it corresponds to the address of the schema that originally contained the object. * for ALTER EXTENSION {ADD, DROP} OBJECT, it corresponds to the address of the object added to or dropped from the extension. There's no user-visible change in this commit, and no functional change either. Discussion: 20150218213255.GC6717@tamriel.snowman.net Reviewed-By: Stephen Frost, Andres Freund

* Split tuple struct defs from htup.h to htup_details.hAlvaro Herrera2012-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | This reduces unnecessary exposure of other headers through htup.h, which is very widely included by many files. I have chosen to move the function prototypes to the new file as well, because that means htup.h no longer needs to include tupdesc.h. In itself this doesn't have much effect in indirect inclusion of tupdesc.h throughout the tree, because it's also required by execnodes.h; but it's something to explore in the future, and it seemed best to do the htup.h change now while I'm busy with it.
* Improve reporting of permission errors for array typesPeter Eisentraut2012-06-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Because permissions are assigned to element types, not array types, complaining about permission denied on an array type would be misleading to users. So adjust the reporting to refer to the element type instead. In order not to duplicate the required logic in two dozen places, refactor the permission denied reporting for types a bit. pointed out by Yeb Havinga during the review of the type privilege feature

* Further consolidation of DROP statement handling.Robert Haas2011-11-17
| | | | | | | | | | | This gets rid of an impressive amount of duplicative code, with only minimal behavior changes. DROP FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER now requires object ownership rather than superuser privileges, matching the documentation we already have. We also eliminate the historical warning about dropping a built-in function as unuseful. All operations are now performed in the same order for all object types handled by dropcmds.c.

* Core support for "extensions", which are packages of SQL objects.Tom Lane2011-02-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the server infrastructure to support extensions. There is still one significant loose end, namely how to make it play nice with pg_upgrade, so I am not yet committing the changes that would make all the contrib modules depend on this feature. In passing, fix a disturbingly large amount of breakage in AlterObjectNamespace() and callers. Dimitri Fontaine, reviewed by Anssi Kääriäinen, Itagaki Takahiro, Tom Lane, and numerous others

* Deprecate the use of => as an operator name.Robert Haas2010-06-22
| | | | | | | | | | In HEAD, emit a warning when an operator named => is defined. In both HEAD and the backbranches (except in 8.2, where contrib modules do not have documentation), document that hstore's text => text operator may be removed in a future release, and encourage the use of the hstore(text, text) function instead. This function only exists in HEAD (previously, it was called tconvert), so backpatch it back to 8.2, when hstore was added. Per discussion.
* Wrap calls to SearchSysCache and related functions using macros.Robert Haas2010-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | The purpose of this change is to eliminate the need for every caller of SearchSysCache, SearchSysCacheCopy, SearchSysCacheExists, GetSysCacheOid, and SearchSysCacheList to know the maximum number of allowable keys for a syscache entry (currently 4). This will make it far easier to increase the maximum number of keys in a future release should we choose to do so, and it makes the code shorter, too. Design and review by Tom Lane.

* Clean up the loose ends in selectivity estimation left by my patch for semiTom Lane2008-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | and anti joins. To do this, pass the SpecialJoinInfo struct for the current join as an additional optional argument to operator join selectivity estimation functions. This allows the estimator to tell not only what kind of join is being formed, but which variable is on which side of the join; a requirement long recognized but not dealt with till now. This also leaves the door open for future improvements in the estimators, such as accounting for the null-insertion effects of lower outer joins. I didn't do anything about that in the current patch but the information is in principle deducible from what's passed. The patch also clarifies the definition of join selectivity for semi/anti joins: it's the fraction of the left input that has (at least one) match in the right input. This allows getting rid of some very fuzzy thinking that I had committed in the original 7.4-era IN-optimization patch. There's probably room to estimate this better than the present patch does, but at least we know what to estimate. Since I had to touch CREATE OPERATOR anyway to allow a variant signature for join estimator functions, I took the opportunity to add a couple of additional checks that were missing, per my recent message to -hackers: * Check that estimator functions return float8; * Require execute permission at the time of CREATE OPERATOR on the operator's function as well as the estimator functions; * Require ownership of any pre-existing operator that's modified by the command. I also moved the lookup of the functions out of OperatorCreate() and into operatorcmds.c, since that seemed more consistent with most of the other catalog object creation processes, eg CREATE TYPE.
* Improve our #include situation by moving pointer types away from theAlvaro Herrera2008-06-19
| | | | | | | corresponding struct definitions. This allows other headers to avoid including certain highly-loaded headers such as rel.h and relscan.h, instead using just relcache.h, heapam.h or genam.h, which are more lightweight and thus cause less unnecessary dependencies.

* Ensure that typmod decoration on a datatype name is validated in all cases,Tom Lane2007-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | even in code paths where we don't pay any subsequent attention to the typmod value. This seems needed in view of the fact that 8.3's generalized typmod support will accept a lot of bogus syntax, such as "timestamp(foo)" or "record(int, 42)" --- if we allow such things to pass without comment, users will get confused. Per a recent example from Greg Stark. To implement this in a way that's not very vulnerable to future bugs-of-omission, refactor the API of parse_type.c's TypeName lookup routines so that typmod validation is folded into the base lookup operation. Callers can still choose not to receive the encoded typmod, but we'll check the decoration anyway if it's present.

* Restructure operator classes to allow improved handling of cross-data-typeTom Lane2006-12-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | cases. Operator classes now exist within "operator families". While most families are equivalent to a single class, related classes can be grouped into one family to represent the fact that they are semantically compatible. Cross-type operators are now naturally adjunct parts of a family, without having to wedge them into a particular opclass as we had done originally. This commit restructures the catalogs and cleans up enough of the fallout so that everything still works at least as well as before, but most of the work needed to actually improve the planner's behavior will come later. Also, there are not yet CREATE/DROP/ALTER OPERATOR FAMILY commands; the only way to create a new family right now is to allow CREATE OPERATOR CLASS to make one by default. I owe some more documentation work, too. But that can all be done in smaller pieces once this infrastructure is in place.

* Support the syntaxTom Lane2006-04-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | CREATE AGGREGATE aggname (input_type) (parameter_list) along with the old syntax where the input type was named in the parameter list. This fits more naturally with the way that the aggregate is identified in DROP AGGREGATE and other utility commands; furthermore it has a natural extension to handle multiple-input aggregates, where the basetype-parameter method would get ugly. In fact, this commit fixes the grammar and all the utility commands to support multiple-input aggregates; but DefineAggregate rejects it because the executor isn't fixed yet. I didn't do anything about treating agg(*) as a zero-input aggregate instead of artificially making it a one-input aggregate, but that should be considered in combination with supporting multi-input aggregates.
* Improve parser so that we can show an error cursor position for errorsTom Lane2006-03-14
| | | | | | | | | | | during parse analysis, not only errors detected in the flex/bison stages. This is per my earlier proposal. This commit includes all the basic infrastructure, but locations are only tracked and reported for errors involving column references, function calls, and operators. More could be done later but this seems like a good set to start with. I've also moved the ReportSyntaxErrorPosition logic out of psql and into libpq, which should make it available to more people --- even within psql this is an improvement because warnings weren't handled by ReportSyntaxErrorPosition.
