The primary goal of this patch is to eliminate duplicate code and share code between different geometric data types more often, to prepare the ground for additional patches. Until now the code reuse was limited, probably because the simpler types (line and point) were implemented after the more complex ones. The changes are quite extensive and can be summarised as: * Eliminate SQL-level function calls. * Re-use more functions to implement others. * Unify internal function names and signatures. * Remove private functions from geo_decls.h. * Replace should-not-happen checks with assertions. * Add comments describe for various functions. * Remove some unreachable code. * Define delimiter symbols of line datatype like the other ones. * Remove the GEODEBUG macro and printf() calls. * Unify code style of a few oddly formatted lines. While the goal was to cause minimal user-visible changes, it was not possible to keep the original behavior in all cases - for example when handling NaN values, or when reusing code makes the functions return consistent results.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions.
