option settings. Sort out SIGHUP vs BACKEND -- there is no total ordering
here, so make explicit checks. Add comments explaining all of this.
Removed permissions check on SHOW command.
Add examine_subclass to the game, rename to SQL_inheritance to fit the
official data model better. Adjust documentation.
Standalone backend needs to reset all options before it starts. To
facilitate that, have IsUnderPostmaster be set by the postmaster itself,
don't wait for the magic -p switch.
Also make sure that all environment variables and argv's survive
init_ps_display(). Use strdup where necessary.
Have initdb make configuration files (postgresql.conf, pg_hba.conf) mode
0600 -- having configuration files is no fun if you can't edit them.
to apply the tempname->realname mapping to type name lookup as well
as relation name lookup, else the type tuple will not be found when
wanted. This fixes bugs like this one:
create temp table foo (f1 int);
select foo.f2 from foo;
ERROR: Unable to locate type name 'foo' in catalog
are opened in a consistent order by different backends (I ordered them
by index OID because that's easy, but any other consistent order would
do as well). This avoids potential deadlock for index types that we
acquire exclusive locks on ... ie, rtree.
entries now for int8 and network hash indexes. int24_ops and int42_ops
are gone. pg_opclass no longer contains multiple entries claiming to be
the default opclass for the same datatype. opr_sanity regress test
extended to catch errors like these in the future.
materialized tupleset is small enough) instead of a temporary relation.
This was something I was thinking of doing anyway for performance, and Jan
says he needs it for TOAST because he doesn't want to cope with toasting
noname relations. With this change, the 'noname table' support in heap.c
is dead code, and I have accordingly removed it. Also clean up 'noname'
plan handling in planner --- nonames are either sort or materialize plans,
and it seems less confusing to handle them separately under those names.
passing the index-is-unique flag to index build routines (duh! ...
why wasn't it done this way to begin with?). Aside from eliminating
an eyesore, this should save a few milliseconds in btree index creation
because a full scan of pg_index is not needed any more.
discussion of 5/19/00). pg_index is now searched for indexes of a
relation using an indexscan. Moreover, this is done once and cached
in the relcache entry for the relation, in the form of a list of OIDs
for the indexes. This list is used by the parser and executor to drive
lookups in the pg_index syscache when they want to know the properties
of the indexes. Net result: index information will be fully cached
for repetitive operations such as inserts.
pointers, namely the catcache tuple fetch routines. Also get rid of
the unused and possibly confusing 'size' field in struct cachedesc.
Since it doesn't allow for variable-length fields, anyone who
actually trusted it would likely be making a mistake...
was inappropriately relying on rel->rd_nblocks to tell if the LO is
empty (apparently a hack to get around a long-dead index bug), causing
misbehavior on a written-but-never-vacuumed LO. Also, inv_read failed
to cope gracefully with 'holes' (unwritten regions) in the object.
we'll get there one day.
Use `cat' to create aclocal.m4, not `aclocal'. Some people don't
have automake installed.
Only run the autoconf rule in the top-level GNUmakefile if the
invoker specified `make configure', don't run it automatically
because of CVS timestamp skew.
--- ie, they're only called for side-effects. Add a PG_RETURN_VOID()
macro and use it where appropriate. This probably doesn't change the
machine code by a single bit ... it's just for documentation.

have'nt r un autoconf to create a new configure, I guess that's done by
the smapshot process, I had to remove a line from interface/odbc/
GNUMakefile to get it to build, it was a autoconf variable that looks to
not be used anymore, I am assuming that this is ok.

quote-stripping, and acl-checking tasks for these functions from the
parser, and do them at function execution time instead. This fixes
the failure of pg_dump to produce correct output for nextval(Foo)
used in a rule, and also eliminates the restriction that the argument
of these functions must be a parse-time constant.
Interfaced a lot of the custom tests to the config.cache, in the process
made them separate macros and grouped them out into files. Made naming
adjustments.
Removed a couple of useless/unused configure tests.
Disabled C++ by default. C++ is no more special than Perl, Python, and Tcl.
And it breaks equally often. :(
that now functions as a wrapper around the MakeMaker stuff. It might
even behave sensically when we have separate build dirs. Same for plperl,
which of course still doesn't work very well. Made sure that plperl
respects the choice of --libdir.
Added --with-python to automatically build and install the Python interface.
Works similarly to the Perl5 stuff.
Moved the burden of the distclean targets lower down into the source tree.
Eventually, each make file should have its own.
Added automatic remaking of makefiles and configure. Currently only for the
top-level because of a bug(?) in Autoconf. Use GNU `missing' to work around
missing autoconf and aclocal. Start factoring out macros into their own
config/*.m4 files to increase readability and organization.
