added to support character set encodings. However I noticed that the
encoding that is used isn't obtained from the DB. Since Java uses
unicode UCS2 internally the character set encoding is used to translate
strings from/to the DB encoding. So it seems logical that the code
would get the encoding from the DB instead of the current method of
requiring the user pass it as a parameter.
Attached is a patch that gets the DB encoding from the DB in the same
manner as is done in libpq/fe-connect.c. The patch is created off of
the latest CVS sources (Connection.java version 1.10).

might change it. Experimentation shows that the signal handler call
mechanism does not save/restore errno for you, at least not on Linux
or HPUX, so this is definitely a real risk.
all forms of foreign keys be exposed to SQLForeignKeys. This patch is in
addition to the ones I mailed yesterday (forget had I changed that as
well....)

return foreign key information based on the pg_trigger system table. I
have tested the patch with (what I believe) is all possible
primary/foreign key combinations -- however I may have missed some, so if
anyone feels like taking the patch for a test drive, here are some useful
links:

This form seemed to be the most portable, readable, and logical, but in any
case it's better than having a dozen different ones in the tree.
Context diff this time.
Remove -m486 compile args for FreeBSD-i386, compile -O2 on i386.
Compile with only -O on alpha for codegen safety.
Make the port use the TEST_AND_SET for alpha and i386 on FreeBSD.
Fix a lot of bogus string formats for outputting pointers (cast to int
and %u/%x replaced with no cast and %p), and 'Size'(size_t) are now
cast to 'unsigned long' and output with %lu/
Remove an unused variable.

hosting product, on both shared and dedicated machines. We currently
offer Oracle and MySQL, and it would be a nice middle-ground.
However, as shipped, PostgreSQL lacks the following features we need
that MySQL has:
1. The ability to listen only on a particular IP address. Each
hosting customer has their own IP address, on which all of their
servers (http, ftp, real media, etc.) run.
2. The ability to place the Unix-domain socket in a mode 700 directory.
This allows us to automatically create an empty database, with an
empty DBA password, for new or upgrading customers without having
to interactively set a DBA password and communicate it to (or from)
the customer. This in turn cuts down our install and upgrade times.
3. The ability to connect to the Unix-domain socket from within a
change-rooted environment. We run CGI programs chrooted to the
user's home directory, which is another reason why we need to be
able to specify where the Unix-domain socket is, instead of /tmp.
4. The ability to, if run as root, open a pid file in /var/run as
root, and then setuid to the desired user. (mysqld -u can almost
do this; I had to patch it, too).
The patch below fixes problem 1-3. I plan to address #4, also, but
haven't done so yet. These diffs are big enough that they should give
the PG development team something to think about in the meantime :-)
Also, I'm about to leave for 2 weeks' vacation, so I thought I'd get
out what I have, which works (for the problems it tackles), now.
With these changes, we can set up and run PostgreSQL with scripts the
same way we can with apache or proftpd or mysql.
In summary, this patch makes the following enhancements:
1. Adds an environment variable PGUNIXSOCKET, analogous to MYSQL_UNIX_PORT,
and command line options -k --unix-socket to the relevant programs.
2. Adds a -h option to postmaster to set the hostname or IP address to
listen on instead of the default INADDR_ANY.
3. Extends some library interfaces to support the above.
4. Fixes a few memory leaks in PQconnectdb().
The default behavior is unchanged from stock 7.0.2; if you don't use
any of these new features, they don't change the operation.

Fix some quoting functions. In particular handle NULLs better.
Use a method to add primary key information rather than direct
manipulation of the class structures.
Break decimal out in _quote (in pg.py) and treat it as float.
Treat timestamp like date for quoting purposes.
Remove a redundant SELECT from the get method speeding it, and
insert since it calls get, up a little.
Add test for BOOL type in typecast method to pgdbTypeCache class.

Fix pgdb.py to send port as integer to lower level function
(dildog@l0pht.com)
Change pg.py to speed up some operations
Allow updates on tables with no primary keys.

edition of the driver did not compile. I have fixed both issues again. I have
attached the modified files to this email, maybe you can check them into the
repository. (Fixes are marked with //FIXME). Enterprise edition driver now
compiles and seems to work.
