2002-04-17Opclasses live in namespaces. I also took the opportunity to createTom Lane
an 'opclass owner' column in pg_opclass. Nothing is done with it at present, but since there are plans to invent a CREATE OPERATOR CLASS command soon, we'll probably want DROP OPERATOR CLASS too, which suggests that a notion of ownership would be a good idea.

2002-04-16Operators live in namespaces. CREATE/DROP/COMMENT ON OPERATOR takeTom Lane
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 >.

2002-04-15The patch I sent to -patches a little while ago wasn't applied: itBruce Momjian
was in the thread "make BufferGetBlockNumber() a macro". Tom objected to the original patch, so I prepared a new one which doesn't change BufferGetBlockNumber() into a macro, it just cleans up some comments and fixes an assertion. The patch is attached. Neil Conway
2002-04-15The attached patch corrects an inaccuracy in src/backend/catalog/READMEBruce Momjian
and fixes a few spelling mistakes in src/bakckend/lmgr/README. Neil Conway
2002-04-15CATALOG VERSION UPDATED:Bruce Momjian
The indexes on most system catalogs are named with the suffix "_index"; not so with TOAST table indexes, which use "_idx". This trivial patch changes TOAST table index names to use the "_index" suffix for consistency. Neil Conway
2002-04-15Disable VACUUM from being called from a function because function memoryBruce Momjian
would be cleared by vacuum; fix idea from Tom Lane.
2002-04-15Fix for NOTIFY when NAMEDATALEN is nonstandard in server. Fix idea fromBruce Momjian
Tom Lane to move string storage to end of structure but keep pointer in the same location.
2002-04-15Fix for EINTR returns from Win9X socket operations:Bruce Momjian
In summary, if a software writer implements timer events or other events which generate a signal with a timing fast enough to occur while libpq is inside connect(), then connect returns -EINTR. The code following the connect call does not handle this and generates an error message. The sum result is that the pg_connect() fails. If the timer or other event is right on the window of the connect() completion time, the pg_connect() may appear to work sporadically. If the event is too slow, pg_connect() will appear to always work and if the event is too fast, pg_connect() will always fail. David Ford
2002-04-15Adjust rules for search_path so that pg_catalog is never implicitlyTom Lane
selected as the creation target namespace; to make that happen, you must explicitly set search_path that way. This makes initdb a hair more complex but seems like a good safety feature.

2002-04-15Fix oversight in recent change of representation for JOIN aliasTom Lane
variables: JOIN/ON should allow references to contained JOINs. Per bug report from Barry Lind.
2002-04-15The contents of command.c, creatinh.c, define.c, remove.c and rename.cTom Lane
have been divided according to the type of object manipulated - so ALTER TABLE code is in tablecmds.c, aggregate commands in aggregatecmds.c and so on. A few common support routines remain in define.c (prototypes in src/include/commands/defrem.h). No code has been changed except for includes to reflect the new files. The prototypes for aggregatecmds.c, functioncmds.c, operatorcmds.c, and typecmds.c remain in src/include/commands/defrem.h. From John Gray <jgray@azuli.co.uk>

2002-04-14Allow detection of collateindex.pl in stylesheet directory or in path,Peter Eisentraut
which covers some recent installation schemes. Add Mandrake installation layout to directories to check for stylesheets. Allow documentation build to proceed if stylesheets were not found, in case the stylesheets might be found through the SGML catalog mechanism.

2002-04-14Fix broken SGML tag.Tatsuo Ishii
2002-04-13Rod's patch does what it is supposed to do, but it also includesBruce Momjian
some old code to add PK constraints to CREATE TABLE. That stuff had been removed as part of my original patch for pg_dump a little while ago. The attached patch fixes this by removing (again :-) ) the code in dumpTables() to perform PK creation during CREATE TABLE. I briefly tested it locally and it fixes both of Tom's test cases. Please apply. Cheers, Neil -- Neil Conway <neilconway@rogers.com>
2002-04-13Patch against 7.2.1 sources. Uses Solaris Intimate Shared MemoryBruce Momjian
for Solaris on SPARC. Scott Brunza (sbrunza@sonalysts.com) gets credit for identifying the issue, making the change, and doing the regression tests. Earlier testing on 7.2rc2 and 7.2 showed performance gains of 1% to 10% on pgbench, osdb-pg, and some locally developed apps. Solaris Intimate Shared Memory is described in "SOLARIS INTERNALS Core Kernel Components" by Jim Mauro and Richard McDougall, Copyright 2001 Sun Microsystem, Inc. ISBN 0-13-022496-0 P.J.

2002-04-13Update/correct inheritance examples.Tom Lane
2002-04-13This is a proposed patch to doc/src/sgml/libpgtcl.sgml which documentsBruce Momjian
the libpgtcl "pg_execute" command. This was mentioned on pgsql-interfaces on Mar 3. I am posting it here in the hope that someone will check to see if it makes sense and is correct SGML-wise. I did run it through jade, but this is my first try at this sort of thing. ljb

2002-04-11Make sure leading/trailing/multiple consecutive space/tab in db/user/groupBruce Momjian
names are handled OK.
2002-04-11Restructure representation of aggregate functions so that they have pg_procTom Lane
entries, per pghackers discussion. This fixes aggregates to live in namespaces, and also simplifies/speeds up lookup in parse_func.c. Also, add a 'proimplicit' flag to pg_proc that controls whether a type coercion function may be invoked implicitly, or only explicitly. The current settings of these flags are more permissive than I would like, but we will need to debate and refine the behavior; for now, I avoided breaking regression tests as much as I could.
