* 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.

* Implement SQL-compliant treatment of row comparisons for < <= > >= casesTom Lane2005-12-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (previously we only did = and <> correctly). Also, allow row comparisons with any operators that are in btree opclasses, not only those with these specific names. This gets rid of a whole lot of indefensible assumptions about the behavior of particular operators based on their names ... though it's still true that IN and NOT IN expand to "= ANY". The patch adds a RowCompareExpr expression node type, and makes some changes in the representation of ANY/ALL/ROWCOMPARE SubLinks so that they can share code with RowCompareExpr. I have not yet done anything about making RowCompareExpr an indexable operator, but will look at that soon. initdb forced due to changes in stored rules.

| | | | | | | | | | | datatype by array_eq and array_cmp; use this to solve problems with memory leaks in array indexing support. The parser's equality_oper and ordering_oper routines also use the cache. Change the operator search algorithms to look for appropriate btree or hash index opclasses, instead of assuming operators named '<' or '=' have the right semantics. (ORDER BY ASC/DESC now also look at opclasses, instead of assuming '<' and '>' are the right things.) Add several more index opclasses so that there is no regression in functionality for base datatypes. initdb forced due to catalog additions.

* Some early work on error message editing. Operator-not-found andTom Lane2003-07-04
| | | | | function-not-found messages now distinguish the cases no-match and ambiguous-match, and they follow the style guidelines too.
* Support expressions of the form 'scalar op ANY (array)' andTom Lane2003-06-29
| | | | | | | | | | 'scalar op ALL (array)', where the operator is applied between the lefthand scalar and each element of the array. The operator must yield boolean; the result of the construct is the OR or AND of the per-element results, respectively. Original coding by Joe Conway, after an idea of Peter's. Rewritten by Tom to keep the implementation strictly separate from subqueries.
* Create real array comparison functions (that use the element datatype'sTom Lane2003-06-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | comparison functions), replacing the highly bogus bitwise array_eq. Create a btree index opclass for ANYARRAY --- it is now possible to create indexes on array columns. Arrange to cache the results of catalog lookups across multiple array operations, instead of repeating the lookups on every call. Add string_to_array and array_to_string functions. Remove singleton_array, array_accum, array_assign, and array_subscript functions, since these were for proof-of-concept and not intended to become supported functions. Minor adjustments to behavior in some corner cases with empty or zero-dimensional arrays. Joe Conway (with some editorializing by Tom Lane).

* Infrastructure for deducing Param types from context, in the same wayTom Lane2003-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | that the types of untyped string-literal constants are deduced (ie, when coerce_type is applied to 'em, that's what the type must be). Remove the ancient hack of storing the input Param-types array as a global variable, and put the info into ParseState instead. This touches a lot of files because of adjustment of routine parameter lists, but it's really not a large patch. Note: PREPARE statement still insists on exact specification of parameter types, but that could easily be relaxed now, if we wanted to do so.

* Give left_oper() and right_oper() noError parameters like oper() (theTom Lane2002-05-01

* Operators live in namespaces. CREATE/DROP/COMMENT ON OPERATOR takeTom Lane2002-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | qualified operator names directly, for example CREATE OPERATOR myschema.+ ( ... ). To qualify an operator name in an expression you need to write OPERATOR(myschema.+) (thanks to Peter for suggesting an escape hatch). I also took advantage of having to reformat pg_operator to fix something that'd been bugging me for a while: mergejoinable operators should have explicit links to the associated cross-data-type comparison operators, rather than hardwiring an assumption that they are named < and >.

* Clean up two rather nasty bugs in operator selection code.Tom Lane2001-02-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. If there is exactly one pg_operator entry of the right name and oprkind, oper() and related routines would return that entry whether its input type had anything to do with the request or not. This is just premature optimization: we shouldn't return the single candidate until after we verify that it really is a valid candidate, ie, is at least coercion-compatible with the given types. 2. oper() and related routines only promise a coercion-compatible result. Unfortunately, there were quite a few callers that assumed the returned operator is binary-compatible with the given datatype; they would proceed to call it without making any datatype coercions. These callers include sorting, grouping, aggregation, and VACUUM ANALYZE. In general I think it is appropriate for these callers to require an exact or binary-compatible match, so I've added a new routine compatible_oper() that only succeeds if it can find an operator that doesn't require any run-time conversions. Callers now call oper() or compatible_oper() depending on whether they are prepared to deal with type conversion or not. The upshot of these bugs is revealed by the following silliness in PL/Tcl's selftest: it creates an operator @< on int4, and then tries to use it to sort a char(N) column. The system would let it do that :-( (and evidently has done so since 6.3 :-( :-(). The result in this case was just a silly sort order, but the reverse combination would've provoked coredump from trying to dereference integers. With this fix you get more reasonable behavior: pltcl_test=# select * from T_pkey1 order by key1, key2 using @<; ERROR: Unable to identify an operator '@<' for types 'bpchar' and 'bpchar' You will have to retype this query using an explicit cast

* Remove bogus code in oper_exact --- if it didn't find an exactTom Lane1999-08-23
| | | | | | | | | match then it tried for a self-commutative operator with the reversed input data types. This is pretty silly; there could never be such an operator, except maybe in binary-compatible-type scenarios, and we have oper_inexact for that. Besides which, the oprsanity regress test would complain about such an operator. Remove nonfunctional code and simplify routine calling convention accordingly.
