rather than "return expr;" -- the latter style is used in most of the
tree. I kept the parentheses when they were necessary or useful because
the return expression was complex.
listed in the column's most-common-values statistics entry. This gives
us an exact selectivity result for the portion of the column population
represented by the MCV list, which can be a big leg up in accuracy if
that's a large fraction of the population. The heuristics involving
pattern contents and prefix are applied only to the part of the population
not included in the MCV list.
and nail a couple more system indexes into cache. This doesn't make
any difference in normal system operation, but when forcing constant
cache resets it's difficult to get through the rules regression test
without these changes.
dead and have become unreferenced. Before 8.1, such members were left
for AtEOXact_CatCache() to clean up, but now AtEOXact_CatCache isn't
supposed to have anything to do. In an assert-enabled build this bug
leads to an assertion failure at transaction end, but in a non-assert
build the dead member is effectively just a small memory leak.
Per report from Jeremy Drake.
an LWLock instead of a spinlock. This hardly matters on Unix machines
but should improve startup performance on Windows (or any port using
EXEC_BACKEND). Per previous discussion.
from Andrus Moor. The former state-machine-style coding wasn't actually
doing much except obscuring the control flow, and it didn't extend
readily to fix this case, so I just took it out. Also, add a
YY_FLUSH_BUFFER call to ensure the lexer is reset correctly if the
previous scan failed partway through the file.
selection of a field from the result of a function returning RECORD.
I believe this case is new in 8.1; it's due to the addition of OUT parameters.
Per example from Michael Fuhr.
setup. This protects against undesired changes in locale behavior
if someone carelessly does setlocale(LC_ALL, "") (and we know who
you are, perl guys).
get_func_arg_info() for consistency with other names there.
This code will probably be useful to other PLs when they start to
support OUT parameters, so better to have it in the main backend.
Also, fix plpgsql validator to detect bogus OUT parameters even when
check_function_bodies is off.
(previously we only did = and <> correctly). Also, allow row comparisons
with any operators that are in btree opclasses, not only those with these
specific names. This gets rid of a whole lot of indefensible assumptions
about the behavior of particular operators based on their names ... though
it's still true that IN and NOT IN expand to "= ANY". The patch adds a
RowCompareExpr expression node type, and makes some changes in the
representation of ANY/ALL/ROWCOMPARE SubLinks so that they can share code
with RowCompareExpr.
I have not yet done anything about making RowCompareExpr an indexable
operator, but will look at that soon.
initdb forced due to changes in stored rules.
#define HIGHBIT (0x80)
#define IS_HIGHBIT_SET(ch) ((unsigned char)(ch) & HIGHBIT)
and removed CSIGNBIT and mapped it uses to HIGHBIT. I have also added
uses for IS_HIGHBIT_SET where appropriate. This change is
purely for code clarity.

equal: if strcoll claims two strings are equal, check it with strcmp, and
sort according to strcmp if not identical. This fixes inconsistent
behavior under glibc's hu_HU locale, and probably under some other locales
as well. Also, take advantage of the now-well-defined behavior to speed up
texteq, textne, bpchareq, bpcharne: they may as well just do a bitwise
comparison and not bother with strcoll at all.
NOTE: affected databases may need to REINDEX indexes on text columns to be
sure they are self-consistent.
Per my recent proposal. I ended up basing the implementation on the
existing mechanism for enforcing valid join orders of IN joins --- the
rules for valid outer-join orders are somewhat similar.
that simplify_boolean_equality() may leave behind. This is only relevant
if the user writes something a bit silly, like CASE x=y WHEN TRUE THEN.
Per example from Michael Fuhr; may or may not explain bug #2106.
the data defining the semantics of a lock method (ie, conflict resolution
table and ancillary data, which is all constant) and the hash tables
storing the current state. The only thing we give up by this is the
ability to use separate hashtables for different lock methods, but there
is no need for that anyway. Put some extra fields into the LockMethod
definition structs to clean up some other uglinesses, like hard-wired
tests for DEFAULT_LOCKMETHOD and USER_LOCKMETHOD. This commit doesn't
do anything about the performance issues we were discussing, but it clears
away some of the underbrush that's in the way of fixing that.
Map them to a single day, so '30 hours' is 'AM'.
Have to_char(interval) and to_char(time) use "HH", "HH12" as 12-hour
intervals, rather than bypass and print the full interval hours. This
is neeeded because to_char(time) is mapped to interval in this function.
Intervals should use "HH24", and document suggestion.
Allow "D" format specifiers for interval/time.
qualification when the underlying operator is indexable and useOr is true.
That is, indexkey op ANY (ARRAY[...]) is effectively translated into an
OR combination of one indexscan for each array element. This only works
for bitmap index scans, of course, since regular indexscans no longer
support OR'ing of scans. There are still some loose ends to clean up
before changing 'x IN (list)' to translate as a ScalarArrayOpExpr;
for instance predtest.c ought to be taught about it. But this gets the
basic functionality in place.
comment line where output as too long, and update typedefs for /lib
directory. Also fix case where identifiers were used as variable names
in the backend, but as typedefs in ecpg (favor the backend for
indenting).
Backpatch to 8.1.X.
the array (for array_push) or higher-dimensional array (for array_cat)
rather than decrementing it as before. This avoids generating lower
bounds other than one for any array operation within the SQL spec. Per
recent discussion.
Interestingly, this seems to have been the original behavior, because
while updating the docs I noticed that a large fraction of relevant
examples were *wrong* for the old behavior and are now right. Is it
worth correcting this in the back-branch docs?
