The previous coding was ugly, as it marked special tokens as such in the wrong stage, relying on workarounds to figure out if they had been quoted in the original or not. This made it impossible to have specific keywords be recognized as such only in certain positions in HBA lines, for example. Fix by restructuring the parser code so that it remembers whether tokens were quoted or not. This eliminates widespread knowledge of possible known keywords for all fields. Also improve memory management in this area, to use memory contexts that are reset as a whole instead of using retail pfrees; this removes a whole lotta crufty (and probably slow) code. Instead of calling strlen() three times in next_field_expand on the returned token to find out whether there was a comma (and strip it), pass back the info directly from the callee, which is simpler. In passing, update historical artifacts in hba.c API. Authors: Brendan Jurd, Alvaro Herrera Reviewed by Pavel Stehule

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: http://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. Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the file HISTORY. 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.
