Given the following table:
test=# \d f
Table "f"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+---------+-----------
i | integer |
test | text |
If I do the following:
test=# insert into f values(1,'test');
INSERT 139549 1
test=# select i::int8,test from f;
?column? | test
----------+------
1 | test
(1 row)
It doesn't make much sense that the first column should be called
'?column?'.
The patch results in the output appearing like this:
test=# select i::int8,test from f;
i | test
---+------
1 | test
(1 row)

table creation time. Big deal you say - but this patch is the basis of the
next thing which is adding PRIMARY KEYs after table creation time. (Which
is currently impossible without twiddling catalogs)
Rundown
-------
* I have made the makeObjectName function of analyze.c non-static, and
exported it in analyze.h
* I have included analyze.h and defrem.h into command.c, to support
makingObjectNames and creating indices
* I removed the 'case CONSTR_PRIMARY' clause so that it properly fails and
says you can't add primary keys, rather than just doing nothing and
reporting nothing!!!
* I have modified the docs.
Algorithm
---------
* If name specified is null, search for a new valid constraint name. I'm
not sure if I should "lock" my generated name somehow tho - should I open
the relation before doing this step?
* Open relation in access exclusive mode
* Check that the constraint does not already exist
* Define the new index
* Warn if they're doubling up on an existing index

Fixed.
I found new bug in command/variable.c in parse_client_encoding(), nobody
probably never see this error:
if (pg_set_client_encoding(encoding))
{
elog(ERROR, "Conversion between %s and %s is not supported",
value, GetDatabaseEncodingName());
}
because pg_set_client_encoding() returns -1 for error and 0 as true.
It's fixed too.
IMHO it can be apply.

buffer manager with 'pg_clog', a specialized access method modeled
on pg_xlog. This simplifies startup (don't need to play games to
open pg_log; among other things, OverrideTransactionSystem goes away),
should improve performance a little, and opens the door to recycling
commit log space by removing no-longer-needed segments of the commit
log. Actual recycling is not there yet, but I felt I should commit
this part separately since it'd still be useful if we chose not to
do transaction ID wraparound.
pgsql-hackers. pg_opclass now has a row for each opclass supported by each
index AM, not a row for each opclass name. This allows pg_opclass to show
directly whether an AM supports an opclass, and furthermore makes it possible
to store additional information about an opclass that might be AM-dependent.
pg_opclass and pg_amop now store "lossy" and "haskeytype" information that we
previously expected the user to remember to provide in CREATE INDEX commands.
Lossiness is no longer an index-level property, but is associated with the
use of a particular operator in a particular index opclass.
Along the way, IndexSupportInitialize now uses the syscaches to retrieve
pg_amop and pg_amproc entries. I find this reduces backend launch time by
about ten percent, at the cost of a couple more special cases in catcache.c's
IndexScanOK.

except the created column is type int8 not int4.
initdb forced. Note this also breaks any chance of pg_upgrade from 7.1,
unless we hack up pg_upgrade to drop and recreate sequences. (Which is
not out of the question, but I don't wanna do it.)

syntax for language names (instead of 'string').
createlang now handles the case where a second language uses the same call
handler as an already installed language (e.g., plperl/plperlu).
droplang now handles the reverse case, i.e., dropping a language where
the call handler is still used by another language. Moreover, droplang
can now be used to drop any user-defined language, not just the supplied
ones.

Some interesting side effects: TOAST pointers are 20 bytes not 32 now;
pg_description has a three-column key instead of one.
Bugs fixed in passing: BINARY cursors work again; pg_class.relhaspkey
has some usefulness; pg_dump dumps comments on indexes, rules, and
triggers in a valid order.

Note: I didn't force an initdb, figuring that one today was enough.
However, there is a new function in pg_proc.h, and pg_dump won't be
able to dump partial indexes until you add that function.

constraint. This case (a) is useless, (b) violates SQL92, and
(c) is certain to cause a failure downstream when we try to create
an index with duplicated column names. So give an appropriate error
message instead of letting the index failure occur. Per report from
Colin Strickland. NOTE: currently, CREATE INDEX fooi ON foo(f1,f1)
still fails with 'cannot insert duplicate key' error. Should we
change that too? What about functional indexes?
IS TRUE, etc, with some degree of verisimilitude. Split out
selectivity support functions from builtins.h into a new header
file selfuncs.h, so as to reduce the number of header files builtins.h
must depend on. Fix a few missing inclusions exposed thereby.

Ok, here it is. Cleared the ctx comment too - after -p
it will be PGC_BACKEND in any case.

Reimplement these tests as well as IS [NOT] NULL to have their own
expression node types, instead of depending on special functions.

On the way, migrate some of the aclitem internal representation away from
the parser and build a real parse tree instead. Also add some 'const'
qualifiers.

too, per SQL. Since it no longer zero pads, 'zpbit*' has been renamed to
'bit*' in the source, hence initdb.
