Attached is a small fix for a stupid mistake I made in comment.c
- an attempt to drop a non-existent comment would dump core :-(.
Sometimes, I'm as sharp as a marble.
Sorry,

allows casts without specific length requirements to continue to work
as they did before; that is, x::char will not truncate the value of x,
whereas x::char(1) will. Likewise for NUMERIC precision/scale.
The column length defaults of char(1) and numeric(30,6) are now inserted
in analyze.c's processing of CREATE TABLE.
from a constraint condition does not violate the constraint (cf. discussion
on pghackers 12/9/99). Implemented by adding a parameter to ExecQual,
specifying whether to return TRUE or FALSE when the qual result is
really NULL in three-valued boolean logic. Currently, ExecRelCheck is
the only caller that asks for TRUE, but if we find any other places that
have the wrong response to NULL, it'll be easy to fix them.
Attached is a patch which patches cleanly against the Sunday afternoon
snapshot. It modifies pg_dump to dump COMMENT ON statements for
user-definable descriptions. In addition, it also modifies comment.c so
that the operator behavior is as Peter E. would like: a comment on an
operator is applied to the underlying function.
Thanks,
Mike Mascari
is considerably more robust and accurate than it used to be.
Also, get rid of numeric's private allocation freelist, which is no longer
a win since Jan rewrote palloc.
SQL cast constructs can be performed during expression transformation
instead of during parsing. This allows constructs like x::numeric(9,2)
and x::int2::float8 to behave as one would expect.
read is reused for successive attributes, instead of being deleted and
recreated from scratch for each value read in. This reduces palloc/pfree
overhead a lot. COPY IN still seems to be noticeably slower than it was
in 6.5 --- we need to figure out why. This change takes care of the only
major performance loss I can see in copy.c itself, so the performance
problem is at a lower level somewhere.
CommandCounterIncrement to make new relation visible before trying to
parse/deparse the expressions. Also, eliminate unnecessary

functions, which would lead to trouble with datatypes that paid attention
to the typelem or typmod parameters to these functions. In particular,
incorrect code in pg_aggregate.c explains the platform-specific failures
that have been reported in NUMERIC avg().
- Prevent permissions on indexes
- Instituted --enable-multibyte option and tweaked the MB build process where necessary
- initdb prompts for superuser password
* Let unprivileged users change their own passwords.
* The password is now an Sconst in the parser, which better reflects its text datatype and also
forces users to quote them.
* If your password is NULL you won't be written to the password file, meaning you can't connect
until you have a password set up (if you use password authentication).
* When you drop a user that owns a database you get an error. The database is not gone.
choke on relation or attribute names containing spaces, quotes, or other
special characters. This fixes a TODO item. It also forces initdb,
since stored rule strings change.
