GiST does now, too.  (Someone needs to write a description of GiST
to add to this chapter.  I don't know enough about it ...)

in C, but recommend that newbies who don't recognize this trick should do
some studying ...

74114938ad Gnu -> GNU in docs. 2001-11-14 20:40:33 +00:00
a585c20d12 Tweak parser so that there is a defined representation for datatypes
bpchar, bit, numeric with typmod -1.  Alter format_type so that this
representation is printed when the typmod is -1.  This ensures that
tables having such columns can be pg_dump'd and reloaded correctly.
Also, remove the rather useless and non-SQL-compliant default
precision and scale for type NUMERIC.  A numeric column declared as
such (with no precision/scale) will now have typmod -1 which means
that numeric values of any precision/scale can be stored in it,
without conversion to a uniform scale.  This seems significantly
more useful than the former behavior.  Part of response to bug #513.

8a069abd18 Fix pg_pwd caching mechanism, which was broken by changes to fork
postmaster children before client auth step.  Postmaster now rereads
pg_pwd on receipt of SIGHUP, the same way that pg_hba.conf is handled.
No cycles need be expended to validate password cache validity during
connection startup.

85801ed9b8 Attached is a small patch for the Reference Manual which adds
information about nulls and sort order.

This is based on information obtained from Peter Eisentraut and
Tom Lane on pgsql-hackers.

Please check my English and Docbook markup, as both are a second
language to me.
