|Subject: [PATCH] adding SYS_TIME just for fun.
|
|Hi,
|
|Whilst I was playing round with the European dates patch I noticed the sysfunc()
|that allows you to do :-
|
|create table test ( da date);
|insert into test values (SYS_DATE);
|
|and have the current system date inserted.
|
|So I thought it would be nice to have the SYS_TIME facility too.
|
|I've cloned the function and changed a few things and there you have it,
|you can now do:
|
|create table test2 ( ti time);
|insert into test2 values (SYS_TIME);
%ud in a printf format strings instead of just %u.
There were three occurances of this in catalog_utils.c,
two in parser.c and one in rewriteSupport.c in the oid
patch that I submitted and was applied. They won't crash
anything, but the error messages will have a 'd' after the
Oid. Annoying, but none are db-threatening.
Sorry about that folks...I'll be more careful in the future...

as ints and longs. Touches on quite a few function args as
well. Most other files look ok as far as Oids go...still checking
though...
Since Oids are type'd as unsigned ints, they should prolly be used
with the %ud format string in elog and sprintf messages. Not sure
what kind of strangeness that could produce.

Changes:
* Unique index capability works using the syntax 'create unique
index'.
* Duplicate OID's in the system tables are removed. I put
little scripts called 'duplicate_oids' and 'find_oid' in
include/catalog that help to find and remove duplicate OID's.
I also moved 'unused_oids' from backend/catalog to
include/catalog, since it has to be in the same directory
as the include files in order to work.
* The backend tries converting the name of a function or aggregate
to all lowercase if the original name given doesn't work (mostly
for compatibility with ODBC).
* You can 'SELECT NULL' to your heart's content.
* I put my _bt_updateitem fix in instead, which uses
_bt_insertonpg so that even if the new key is so big that
the page has to be split, everything still works.
* All literal references to system catalog OID's have been
replaced with references to define'd constants from the catalog
header files.
* I added a couple of node copy functions. I think this was a
preliminary attempt to get rules to work.
