and make backend/libpq/pqcomm.c only try to lock the socket file when
the call exists. Also, change open-RDONLY to open-WRONLY; at least
on my platform, you can't get a write lock on a file you didn't open
for writing.
for against a just updated CVS tree. It contains
Partial new rewrite system that handles subselects, view
aggregate columns, insert into select from view, updates
with set col = view-value and select rules restriction to
view definition.
Updates for rule/view backparsing utility functions to
handle subselects correct.
New system views pg_tables and pg_indexes (where you can
see the complete index definition in the latter one).
Enabling array references on query parameters.
Bugfix for functional index.
Little changes to system views pg_rules and pg_views.
The rule system isn't a release-stopper any longer.
But another stopper is that I don't know if the latest
changes to PL/pgSQL (not already in CVS) made it compile on
AIX. Still wait for some response from Dave.

parameters. With it applied a function like
CREATE FUNCTION getname(oid8, int4) RETURNS name AS
'SELECT typname FROM pg_type WHERE oid = $1[$2]'
LANGUAGE 'sql';
is possible. Mainly I need this to enable array references in
expressions for PL/pgSQL. Complete regression test ran O.K.

spin-locks. Notice that it's now inline assembler in s_lock.h,
rather than seperate code in s_lock.c. It also shrank a little
bit... Just rip out the S_LOCK() define and insert the tas() inline
function. Please let me know if there are any problems with it.

1. The UnixWare tas macro was reformatted (by indent or it like?) which caused
it to break. The asm macro construct is very particular about the %mem
construct -- it has to start in column 1.
2. When compiling libpq++, g++ was used even if configure found the C++ com-
piler to be CC.
3. When compiling libpq++, '-Wno-error' was added to CXXFLAGS, even if the
compiler wasn't g++.

Sorry, I didn't know it is a GNU extension. I have written this patch
which should fix the problem. Let me know if you still have problems.

Here is a new patch for libpq, to make it work on Win32 again (since
the latest modifications broke it a little).
Please also add the file "libpq.rc" to the interfaces/libpq directory.
This will allow version-stamping of the generated DLL file, so that
automatic install programs (and interested users) can determine
the version of the file. The file is currently set as "prerelease".
Before the release, somebody should change the line "FILEFLAGS
VS_FF_PRERELEASE" to "FILEFLAGS 0". That information should probably
go into toos\RELEASE_CHANGES.
The patch is against the cvs as of ~ 1998-08-26 14:30 CEST.
