* Use the parser macro IS_BINARY_COMPATIBLE() to allow more successThomas G. Lockhart1998-08-17
| | | | | in type checking for DEFAULT contraint clauses. Could do more type coersion later...
* From: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>To: pgsql-patches@postgreSQL.orgMarc G. Fournier1998-08-17
| | | | | | Sigh. That tweak needs a tweak --- I didn't realize that ".DEFAULT" processing ignores dependencies, at least in the version of gmake I have here (not sure if it's a bug or not). Apply this patch aftermy previous one...
* Just a couple of "after-commit" cleanups...Marc G. Fournier1998-08-17

| | | | | | | | From: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us> Attached is a patch for this weekend's work on libpq. I've dealt with several issues: <for details: see message, in pgsql-patches archive for above data>
* Allow a null pointer to be returned from get_opname().Thomas G. Lockhart1998-08-16
| | | | | Previously, had thrown an error, but looking for alternate strategies for table indices utilization would prefer to continue.
* Check for null pointer returned from get_opname().Thomas G. Lockhart1998-08-16
| | | | | Don't bother checking for alternate strategies if so since it was more likely a function or some other non-operator anyway.

* Disable not-ready-to-use support code for the line data type.Thomas G. Lockhart1998-08-16
| | | | | | Bracket things with #ifdef ENABLE_LINE_TYPE. The line data type has always been used internally to support other types, but I/O routines have never been defined for it.
* This README only mentions nroff problems with page.5, which has beenThomas G. Lockhart1998-08-15
| | | | removed from the man pages and put into the new sgml docs.
* Include a sentence in the top pointing to the new docs.Thomas G. Lockhart1998-08-15
| | | | | pgbuiltin.3 is obsolete for sure, and libpq.3 can become so since the size and scope of this man page is not appropriate in a man page format.
* Converted to page.sgml. Not needed in a man page.Thomas G. Lockhart1998-08-15
|
* Information moved to sgml source files.Thomas G. Lockhart1998-08-15
| | | | | The "Oracle compatibility" page should have always been in with functions anyway. The BKI information is not really appropriate for a man page.
* Remove single-argument trim() function from table.Thomas G. Lockhart1998-08-15
| | | | | Never seen because the parser frontend converts all trim() calls to btrim(), ltrim(), and rtime() calls before execution.
* Some old cleanup fixes for close_ps() from G. Thaker.Thomas G. Lockhart1998-08-15

* Allow binary-compatible indices to be considered when checking for validThomas G. Lockhart1998-08-14
| | | | | | | | | | indices for restriction clauses containing a constant. Note that if an index does not match directly (usually because the types on both side of the clause don't match), and if a binary-compatible index is identified, then the operator function will be replaced by a new one. Should not be a problem, but be sure that if types are listed as being binary compatible (in parse_coerce.h) then the comparison functions are also binary-compatible, giving equivalent results.
* Include OID as a built-in type.Thomas G. Lockhart1998-08-14

* Check for bad result from pg_id. A bad result can come from shared libraryThomas G. Lockhart1998-08-14
| | | | | | trouble, and the name of the shared library has been changed recently. Had to rerun ldconfig on my machine to get it working again. Give an error message with a helpful hint if so...

* The attached patch implements some changes that were discussed aBruce Momjian1998-08-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | couple weeks ago on the hackers and interfaces lists: 1. When the backend sends a NOTICE message and closes the connection (typically, because it was told to by the postmaster after another backend coredumped), libpq will now print the notice and close the connection cleanly. Formerly, the frontend app would usually terminate ungracefully due to a SIGPIPE. (I am not sure if 6.3.2 behaved that way, but the current cvs sources do...) 2. libpq's various printouts to stderr are now fed through a single "notice processor" routine, which can be overridden by the application to direct notices someplace else. This should ease porting libpq to Windows. I also noticed and fixed a problem in PQprint: when sending output to a pager subprocess, it would disable SIGPIPE in case the pager terminates early (this is good) --- but afterwards it reset SIGPIPE to SIG_DFL, rather than restoring the application's prior setting (bad). regards, tom lane

* From: David Hartwig <daybee@bellatlantic.net>Marc G. Fournier1998-08-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I have attached a patch to allow GROUP BY and/or ORDER BY function or expressions. Note worthy items: 1. The expression or function need not be in the target list. Example: SELECT name FROM foo GROUP BY lower(name); 2. Simplified the grammar to use expressions only. 3. Cleaned up earlier patch in this area to make use of existing utility functions. 3. Reduced some of the members in the SortGroupBy parse node. The original data members were redundant with the new expression node. (MUST do a "make clean" now) 4. Added a new parse node "JoinUsing". The JOIN USING clause was overloading this SortGroupBy structure. With the afore mentioned reduction of members, the two clauses lost all their commonality. 5. A bug still exist where, if a function or expression is GROUPed BY, and an aggregate function does not include a attribute from the expression or function, the backend crashes. (or something like that) The bug pre-dates this patch. Example: SELECT lower(a) AS lowcase, count(b) FROM foo GROUP BY lowcase; *** BOOM *** --Also when not in target list SELECT count(b) FROM foo GROUP BY lower(a); *** BOOM AGAIN ***
