to columns of an RTE that was a function returning RECORD with a column
definition list. Apparently no one has tried to use non-default typmod
with a function returning RECORD before.
if they are two-byte multibyte characters. Same thing can be happen
if octet_length(multibyte_chars) == n where n is char(n).
Long standing bug since 7.3 days. Per report and fix from Yoshiyuki Asaba.
This is no longer necessary or appropriate since we don't use zero typeid
as a wildcard anymore, and it fixes a nasty performance problem with
functions with many parameters. Per recent example from Reuven Lerner.
implementation limits, do not issue an ERROR; instead issue a NOTICE and use
the max supported value. Per pgsql-general discussion of 28-Apr, this is
needed to allow easy porting from pre-7.3 releases where the limits were
higher.
Unrelated change in same area: accept GLOBAL TEMP/TEMPORARY as a synonym
for TEMPORARY, as per pgsql-hackers discussion of 15-Apr. We previously
rejected it, but that was based on a misreading of the spec --- SQL92's
GLOBAL temp tables are really closer to what we have than their LOCAL ones.
targetlist of a set-operation tree. I'm not sure that this solution
will really stand the test of time --- perhaps we need to make a special
RTE for such vars to refer to. But this quick hack fixes Brandon Craig
Rhodes' complaint of 10-Feb-02 about EXCEPT in CREATE RULE, while not
changing any behavior in the better-tested cases where leftmostRTI is
one anyway.
bison 1.875 and later as we did from earlier bison releases. Eventually
we will probably want to adopt the newer message spelling ... but not yet.
Per recent discussion on pgpatches.
Note: I didn't change the build rules for bootstrap, ecpg, or plpgsql
grammars, since these do not affect regression test results.
disallowed by CREATE TABLE (eg, pseudo-types); also disallow these types
from being introduced by the range-function syntax. While at it, allow
CREATE TABLE to create zero-column tables, per recent pghackers discussion.
I am back-patching this into 7.3 since failure to disallow pseudo-types
is arguably a security hole.
where it's safe to do database access. Along the way, fix core dump
for 'DEFAULT' parameters to CREATE DATABASE. initdb forced due to
change in pg_proc entry.
(usually bison output files), not as standalone files. This hack
works around flex's insistence on including <stdio.h> before we are
able to include postgres.h; postgres.h will already be read before
the compiler starts to read the flex output file. Needed for largefile
support on some platforms.
coercions, not implicit ones. For example, 'select abstime(1035497293)'
should succeed because there is an explicit binary coercion from int4
to abstime.
the SQL99 standard. (I'm not sure that the character-class features are
quite right, but that can be fixed later.) Document SQL99 and POSIX
regexps as being different features; provide variants of SUBSTRING for
each.
parse analysis and into the execution code (in tablecmds.c). This
eliminates a lot of unreasonably complex code that needed to have two
or more execution paths in case it was dealing with a not-yet-created
table column vs. an already-existing one. The execution code is always
dealing with already-created tables and so needs only one case. This
also eliminates some potential race conditions (the table wasn't locked
between parse analysis and execution), makes it easy to fix the gripe
about wrong referenced-column names generating a misleading error message,
and lets us easily add a dependency from the foreign-key constraint to
the unique index that it requires the referenced table to have. (Cf.
complaint from Kris Jurka 12-Sep-2002 on pgsql-bugs.)
Also, third try at building a deletion mechanism that is not sensitive
to the order in which pg_depend entries are visited. Adding the above-
mentioned dependency exposed the folly of what dependency.c had been
doing: it failed for cases where B depends on C while both auto-depend
on A. Dropping A should succeed in this case, but was failing if C
happened to be visited before B. It appears the only solution is two
separate walks over the dependency tree.
to be flexible about assignment casts without introducing ambiguity in
operator/function resolution. Introduce a well-defined promotion hierarchy
for numeric datatypes (int2->int4->int8->numeric->float4->float8).
Change make_const to initially label numeric literals as int4, int8, or
numeric (never float8 anymore).
Explicitly mark Func and RelabelType nodes to indicate whether they came
from a function call, explicit cast, or implicit cast; use this to do
reverse-listing more accurately and without so many heuristics.
Explicit casts to char, varchar, bit, varbit will truncate or pad without
raising an error (the pre-7.2 behavior), while assigning to a column without
any explicit cast will still raise an error for wrong-length data like 7.3.
This more nearly follows the SQL spec than 7.2 behavior (we should be
reporting a 'completion condition' in the explicit-cast cases, but we have
no mechanism for that, so just do silent truncation).
Fix some problems with enforcement of typmod for array elements;
it didn't work at all in 'UPDATE ... SET array[n] = foo', for example.
Provide a generalized array_length_coerce() function to replace the
specialized per-array-type functions that used to be needed (and were
missing for NUMERIC as well as all the datetime types).
Add missing conversions int8<->float4, text<->numeric, oid<->int8.
initdb forced.
already fixed by You. However there were a few left and attached patch
should fix the rest of them.
I used StringInfo only in 2 places and both of them are inside debug
ifdefs. Only performance penalty will come from using strlen() like all
the other code does.
I also modified some of the already patched parts by changing
snprintf(buf, 2 * BUFSIZE, ... style lines to
snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), ... where buf is an array.

type for runtime constraint checks, instead of misusing the parse-time
Constraint node for the purpose. Fix some damage introduced into type
coercion logic; in particular ensure that a coerced expression tree will
read out the correct result type when inspected (patch had broken some
RelabelType cases). Enforce domain NOT NULL constraints against columns
that are omitted from an INSERT.
should be pretty safe in practice, but it's probably better to be safe
than sorry.
I was actually looking for cases where NAMEDATALEN is assumed to be
32, but only found one. That's fixed too, as well as a few bits of
code cleanup.

copying into a fixed-size buffer (in this case, a buffer of
NAMEDATALEN bytes). AFAICT nothing to worry about here, but worth
fixing anyway...

array header, and to compute sizing and alignment of array elements
the same way normal tuple access operations do --- viz, using the
tupmacs.h macros att_addlength and att_align. This makes the world
safe for arrays of cstrings or intervals, and should make it much
easier to write array-type-polymorphic functions; as examples see
the cleanups of array_out and contrib/array_iterator. By Joe Conway
and Tom Lane.
with OPAQUE, as per recent pghackers discussion. I still want to do some
more work on the 'cstring' pseudo-type, but I'm going to commit the bulk
of the changes now before the tree starts shifting under me ...
latent wrong-struct-type bugs and makes the coding style more uniform,
since the majority of places working with lists of column names were
already using Strings not Idents. While at it, remove vestigial
support for Stream node type, and otherwise-unreferenced nodes.h entries
for T_TupleCount and T_BaseNode.
NB: full recompile is recommended due to changes of Node type numbers.
This shouldn't force an initdb though.
when two equal() targetlist items were to be added to an ORDER BY or
DISTINCT list. Although indeed this would make sorting fractionally
faster by sometimes saving a comparison, it confuses the heck out of
later stages of processing, because it makes it look like the user
wrote DISTINCT ON rather than DISTINCT. Bug reported by joe@piscitella.com.
The -n and -N options were removed. Quoting is now smart enough to
supply quotes if and only if necessary.
Numerical types are now printed without quotes, except in cases of
special values such as NaN.
Boolean values printed as true and false.
Most string literals now do not escape whitespace characters (newlines,
etc.) for portability.
SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION argument is a string literal, to follow SQL.
Made commands output by pg_dump use consistent spacing and indentation.
