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.

Ok, the following patch should solve this concern. It also tries to
connect as little times as possible (the previous one would connect one
time per table plus one per database; this one connects two times per
database).

creation to world, but disallow temp table creation in template1. Per
latest round of pghackers discussion.
I did not force initdb, but the permissions lockdown on template1 will
not take effect unless you do one (or manually REVOKE TEMP ON DATABASE template1 FROM public).
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.

available (else there's no way to interpret the list links). Change
pg_locks view to show transaction ID locks separately from ordinary
relation locks. Avoid showing N duplicate rows when the same lock is
held multiple times (seems unlikely that users care about exact hold
count). Improve documentation.
to false provides more SQL-spec-compliant behavior than we had before.
I am not sure that setting it false is actually a good idea yet; there
is a lot of client-side code that will probably be broken by turning
autocommit off. But it's a start.
Loosely based on a patch by David Van Wie.
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.
Neil Conway
anonymous return type SRF code. It gets rid of the superflous
'pg_locks_result' that Bruce/Tom had commented on. Otherwise, no
changes in functionality.
Neil Conway
bit on the indexes.
I also attach clusterdb and clusterdb.sgml; both of them are blatant
rips of vacuumdb and vacuumdb.sgml, but get the job done. Please review
them, as I'm probably making a lot of mistakes with SGML and I can't
compile it here.
vacuumdb itself is not very comfortable to use when the databases have
passwords, because it has to connect once for each table (I can probably
make it connect only once for each database; should I?). Because of
this I added a mention of PGPASSWORDFILE in the documentation, but I
don't know if that is the correct place for that.
Alvaro Herrera
value '-2' is used to indicate a variable-width type whose width is
computed as strlen(datum)+1. Everything that looks at typlen is updated
except for array support, which Joe Conway is working on; at the moment
it wouldn't work to try to create an array of cstring.
