* Fix core dumps, inability to count, etc associated with canonicalize_pathTom Lane2004-08-13
| | | | patches.
* Change order of operations in ALTER TABLE SET TABLESPACE so that weTom Lane2004-08-13
| | | | | | don't hold an open file reference to the original table at the end. This is a good thing in any case, particularly so on Windows which cannot drop the table file otherwise.
* Allow commas in BEGIN, START TRANSACTION, and SET TRANSACTION, as requiredTom Lane2004-08-12
| | | | | | by the SQL standard. For backwards compatibility, however, continue to accept the syntax without. Minor editorialization in the reference pages for these commands, too.
* Allow optional SAVEPOINT keyword in RELEASE and ROLLBACK TO, for greaterTom Lane2004-08-12
| | | | | | compliance with SQL2003 spec syntax. Oliver Jowett
* Cleanup Win32 COPY handling, and move archive examples to SGML.Bruce Momjian2004-08-12

* Add mention of "WIN32" COPY.Bruce Momjian2004-08-12
|
* Add make_native_path() because Win32 COPY is an internal CMD.EXE commandBruce Momjian2004-08-12
| | | | | | | | | | and doesn't process forward slashes in the same way as external commands. Quoting the first argument to COPY does not convert forward to backward slashes, but COPY does properly process quoted forward slashes in the second argument. Win32 COPY works with quoted forward slashes in the first argument only if the current directory is the same as the directory of the first argument.
* Avoid crashing when restoring a saved GUC session_authorization valueTom Lane2004-08-11
| | | | that refers to a now-deleted userid. Per gripe from Chris Ochs.
* Work around broken strtod() that's present in many Solaris releases.Tom Lane2004-08-11
| | | | Thanks to Michael Fuhr for identifying the problem.
* Add translation from 7.4 branch to head.Peter Eisentraut2004-08-11
|
* Fix failure to guarantee that a checkpoint will write out pg_clog updatesTom Lane2004-08-11
| | | | | | for transaction commits that occurred just before the checkpoint. This is an EXTREMELY serious bug --- kudos to Satoshi Okada for creating a reproducible test case to prove its existence.

* syslogger.c needs <sys/time.h> on some platforms, per Greg Mullane.Tom Lane2004-08-09
|
* When expanding %p in archive_command or restore_command, translateTom Lane2004-08-09
| | | | | | slashes to backslashes #ifdef WIN32. This is to cope with the fact that Windows seems exceedingly unfriendly to slashes in shell commands, as per recent discussion.
* Make listen_addresses be a comma-separated list instead of a space-separatedTom Lane2004-08-08
| | | | list. More consistent with our other list-containing GUC variables.
* Document background writer control parameters, do some editorial workTom Lane2004-08-08
| | | | on other recent changes in runtime parameter list.
* Disable vacuum delay, as discussed on hackers.Bruce Momjian2004-08-08
|
* Allow libpgport to call memory allocation routines even thoughBruce Momjian2004-08-08
| | | | | | | CurrentMemoryContext is DLLIMPORT on Win32. Work around that by creating stubs in the backend for palloc/pstrdup. Also fix pg_dumpall to do proper quoting on Win32.
* Tighened up syntax checking of array input processing considerably. Junk thatJoe Conway2004-08-08
| | | | | | | | | was previously allowed in odd places with odd results now causes an ERROR. Also changed behavior with respect to whitespace -- trailing whitespace is now ignored as well as leading whitespace (which has always been ignored). Documentation updated to reflect change in whitespace handling. Also some refactoring to what I believe is a more sensible order of several paragraphs.
* Add a comment about why we always replay backup blocks from WAL.Tom Lane2004-08-08

* Fixups for Win32 symlinks.Bruce Momjian2004-08-08
|
* Don't try to rewrite NEW references in a utility statement in a rule.Tom Lane2004-08-07
| | | | | | | | There won't be any, and in fact there won't even be an RTE for NEW, which was leading to a core dump in CVS tip. 7.4 and earlier manage not to crash when applying ResolveNew in this scenario, but I think it was just good fortune that they didn't. Per report from Bernd Helmle.
* Vacuum delay activated by default.Jan Wieck2004-08-07

* Document delay as 0, per Matthew T. O'ConnorBruce Momjian2004-08-07

* Arrange for proper newline termination of syslogger's own messages,Tom Lane2004-08-06
| | | | per Andreas.
* Use one, not zero, as the default lower bound for arrays of AclItems.Tom Lane2004-08-06
| | | | | | | | This avoids changing the displayed appearance of ACL columns now that array_out decorates its output with bounds information when the lower bound isn't one. Per gripe from Gaetano Mendola. Note that I did not force initdb for this, although any database initdb'd in the last couple of days is going to have some problems.
* Add _O_TEXT option to dup2 call on Windows, to ensure redirected postmasterTom Lane2004-08-06
| | | | stderr is in text mode. Per Andreas.
* Fix several small Windows compatibility issues, per Andreas.Tom Lane2004-08-06

* Rename vacuum_cost_naptime to vacuum_cost_delay, with agreement from Jan.Bruce Momjian2004-08-06
|
* Create a built-in log rotation program, so that we no longer have toTom Lane2004-08-05
| | | | | | | | | recommend that people go get Apache's rotatelogs program. Additional benefits are that configuration is done through GUC, rather than externally, and that the postmaster can monitor the log rotator and restart it after failure (though we certainly hope that won't happen often). Andreas Pflug, some rework by Tom Lane.
* Require that array literals produce "rectangular" arrays, i.e. all theJoe Conway2004-08-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | subarrays of a given dimension have the same number of elements/subarrays. Also repair a longstanding undocumented (as far as I can see) ability to explicitly set array bounds in the array literal syntax. It now can deal properly with negative array indicies. Modify array_out so that arrays with non-standard lower bounds (i.e. not 1) are output with the expicit dimension syntax. This fixes a longstanding issue whereby arrays with non-default lower bounds had them changed to default after a dump/reload cycle. Modify regression tests and docs to suit, and add some minimal documentation regarding the explicit dimension syntax.
* Use gettext_noop() to mark strings. errmsg() perform theDennis Bjorklund2004-08-04
| | | | real gettext() later on, so it was called twice before.
* Label CVS tip as 8.0devel instead of 7.5devel. Adjust various commentsTom Lane2004-08-04
| | | | and documentation to reference 8.0 instead of 7.5.
* Add LOG_NOWAIT flag to openlog() call, per my note of 2004-06-24.Tom Lane2004-08-04

* Fix silly thinko in ALTER COLUMN TYPE. Check for finding expectedTom Lane2004-08-04
| | | | | | | dependency was looking at wrong columns and so would always fail. Was not exposed by regression tests because we are only testing cases involving built-in (pinned) types and so no actual dependency entry exists to be removed.
* Tweak postmaster code to avoid double reporting when bgwriter crashes.Tom Lane2004-08-04
|
* record_out and friends need to cope with dropped columns in the rowTom Lane2004-08-04
| | | | datatype. Per example from Gaetano Mendola, 2004-07-25.
* Make use of backup label/history files to control recovery properly.Tom Lane2004-08-04
|
* Fix typo in comment.Tom Lane2004-08-04
|
* Add some strings for translation and remove some cut'n'pasteDennis Bjorklund2004-08-04
| | | | that makes it impossible to translate to other languages.
* Add functions pg_start_backup, pg_stop_backup to create backup labelTom Lane2004-08-03
| | | | | | | | | and history files as per recent discussion. While at it, remove pg_terminate_backend, since we have decided we do not have time during this release cycle to address the reliability concerns it creates. Split the 'Miscellaneous Functions' documentation section into 'System Information Functions' and 'System Administration Functions', which hopefully will draw the eyes of those looking for such things.

* Fix not-quite-right Assertion. Did not work at all in extended-queryTom Lane2004-08-02
| | | | | | | mode (per complaint from Kris Jurka) and it was only by chance that it didn't fail in simple-query mode. A COMMIT or ROLLBACK has to be executed by a portal, therefore it's wrong to suppose that there aren't any live portals at CleanupTransaction time.
* While perusing SQL92 I realized that we are delivering the wrong SQLSTATETom Lane2004-08-02
| | | | | | | error code for string-too-long errors. It should be STRING_DATA_RIGHT_TRUNCATION not STRING_DATA_LENGTH_MISMATCH. The latter probably should only be applied to cases where a string must be exactly so many bits --- there are no cases at all where it applies to character strings, only bit strings.
