2002-08-04[ Previous patch reversed.]Bruce Momjian
Please use this patch instead of my previously submitted one. It is just remerged against HEAD for new alter_table.out stuff. Another reason this patch is useful for _interactive_ users: imagine a view based on a many way join. Imagine creating a complicated insert rule that inserts into all the joined tables and when you insert you get a check failure, but you need to know which actual table the constraint was on that failed!

2002-08-04This patch fixes a probably harmless write of uninitialized memory inBruce Momjian
the statistics collector and makes a number of corrections to the documentation for SET, SHOW, and COPY. Neil Conway

ERROR: ExecInsert: rejected due to CHECK constraint insert_con To be like this: ERROR: ExecInsert: rejected due to CHECK constraint "insert_con" on "insert_tbl" Updated regression tests to match. I got sick of seeing 'rejected due to CHECK constraint "$1" in my log and not being able to find the bug in our website code... Christopher Kings-Lynne

2002-08-04This patch fixes a "multi-line string literal" warning encounteredBruce Momjian
when compiling psql with GCC 3.1. Neil Conway
2002-08-04The attached patch implements START TRANSACTION, per SQL99. TheBruce Momjian
functionality of the command is basically identical to that of BEGIN; it just accepts a few extra options (only one of which PostgreSQL currently implements), and is standards-compliant. The patch includes a simple regression test and documentation. [ Regression tests removed, per Peter.] Neil Conway
2002-08-04This patch fixes in intermittent failure in the regression tests:Bruce Momjian
there was a race condition between the "alter_table" and "rules" regression tests. Depending on scheduling, sometimes an ALTER TABLE command would operate on a relation created by the "rules" tests, leading to unexpected results. Neil Conway

functions. If there are no objections, please apply. Joe Conway
2002-08-02When compiling with --enable-cassert, check for reference count leaksTom Lane
in the relcache. It's rather silly that we have reference count leak checks in bufmgr and in catcache, but not in relcache which will normally have many fewer entries. Chris K-L would have caught at least one bug in his recent DROP patch if he'd had this.
2002-08-02RemoveAttrDefaultById() neglected to obtain exclusive lock on theTom Lane
relation being modified. In most paths of control we'd already have such a lock, but if we were dropping the default due to a cascaded delete of some function it depended on, maybe not.

> o -Add ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN feature [drop]
2002-08-02ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN works. Patch by Christopher Kings-Lynne,Tom Lane
code review by Tom Lane. Remaining issues: functions that take or return tuple types are likely to break if one drops (or adds!) a column in the table defining the type. Need to think about what to do here. Along the way: some code review for recent COPY changes; mark system columns attnotnull = true where appropriate, per discussion a month ago.

whose first non-space character is '('. 2) Handle Insert .. () VALUES ().
2002-07-31Instead of having a configure-time DEFAULT_ATTSTATTARGET, store -1 inTom Lane
attstattarget to indicate 'use the default'. The default is now a GUC variable default_statistics_target, and so may be changed on the fly. Along the way we gain the ability to have pg_dump dump the per-column statistics target when it's not the default. Patch by Neil Conway, with some kibitzing from Tom Lane.

2002-07-30Teach pg_dump to dump user-defined operator classes. For the moment,Tom Lane
this only works against 7.3 or later databases; the pushups required to do it without regprocedure/regtype/etc seem more trouble than they're worth, considering that existing users aren't expecting pg_dump support for this.

2002-07-30Would it be wise to have the plsql.sgml file renamed to plpgsql.sgml?Bruce Momjian
All of the internal tags are of the latter. The other thing I noticed is that most of the quick examples in the file use a para and synopsis. Is there a reason we're not using <example/> ? Rod Taylor

> o -Generate failure on short COPY lines rather than pad NULLs
2002-07-30The attached patch removes the last remnants of support forBruce Momjian
'tioga recipes', whatever those are -- Peter E. killed most of it a couple days ago, but this patch removes the rest. Most of it was #ifdef'ed out anyway. Neil Conway
2002-07-30IMPROVED VERSION APPLIED:Bruce Momjian
The attached patch completes the following TODO item: * Generate failure on short COPY lines rather than pad NULLs I also restructed a lot of the existing COPY code, did some code review on the column list patch sent in by Brent Verner a little while ago, and added some regression tests. I also added an explicit check (and resultant error) for extra data before the end-of-line. Neil Conway
2002-07-30Add ltree data type to contrib, from Teodor Sigaev and Oleg Bartunov.Bruce Momjian
2002-07-30Added support for schemas and quotes in tab-complete.c, as well asBruce Momjian
a few other things: * Made all references to the pg_* tables absolute, by specifying the pg_catalog schema. * Added SCHEMA as a create/delete completion option. * Added SCHEMA completion as: SELECT nspname FROM pg_catalog.pg_namespace WHERE substr(nspname,1,%d)='%s' * Added completion of "INSERT INTO <table> (" with attribute names. * Added completion of "INSERT INTO <table> (attribs)" with VALUES or SELECT * Added limited locking completion: only for one table: "LOCK" and "LOCK TABLE" now both get a completion list of tables Complete with "IN" for LOCK [TABLE] <table> Complete LOCK [TABLE] <table> IN with a lock mode * Added a very simple WHERE finisher that uses the previous word as a table lookup for attributes. * Added quote support when parsing "previous words". In other words, hitting tab after INSERT INTO "foo bar baby" now does the right thing and recognizes "foo bar baby" as one word. Letting tab-complete quote things that should be quoted seems to be temporarily ifdef'ed out due to readline compatibility problems. Can anyone elaborate on this? Greg Sabino Mullane
2002-07-30 This should fix a bug where a row that was updated orBruce Momjian
deleted that had another row inserted/updated to its old value during the same statement or other statements before the integrity check for noaction would incorrectly error. This could happen in deferred constraints or due to triggers or functions. It's effectively a reworking of the previous patch that did a not exists to instead do a separate check. Stephan Szabo
2002-07-30Since we're depending on %option noyywrap in the main scanner now,Tom Lane
we may as well use it in all our flex files. Make all the flex files have a consistent set of options.
2002-07-30Add tablefunc to contrib makefile.Bruce Momjian
2002-07-30As mentioned above, here is my contrib/tablefunc patch. It includesBruce Momjian
three functions which exercise the tablefunc API. show_all_settings() - returns the same information as SHOW ALL, but as a query result normal_rand(int numvals, float8 mean, float8 stddev, int seed) - returns a set of normally distributed float8 values - This routine implements Algorithm P (Polar method for normal deviates) from Knuth's _The_Art_of_Computer_Programming_, Volume 2, 3rd ed., pages 122-126. Knuth cites his source as "The polar method", G. E. P. Box, M. E. Muller, and G. Marsaglia, _Annals_Math,_Stat._ 29 (1958), 610-611. crosstabN(text sql) - returns a set of row_name plus N category value columns - crosstab2(), crosstab3(), and crosstab4() are defined for you, but you can create additional crosstab functions per directions in the README.
