blanks, in hopes of reducing the surprise factor for newbies. Remove redundant operators for VARCHAR (it depends wholly on TEXT operations now). Clean up resolution of ambiguous operators/functions to avoid surprising choices for domains: domains are treated as equivalent to their base types and binary-coercibility is no longer considered a preference item when choosing among multiple operators/functions. IsBinaryCoercible now correctly reflects the notion that you need *only* relabel the type to get from type A to type B: that is, a domain is binary-coercible to its base type, but not vice versa. Various marginal cleanup, including merging the essentially duplicate resolution code in parse_func.c and parse_oper.c. Improve opr_sanity regression test to understand about binary compatibility (using pg_cast), and fix a couple of small errors in the catalogs revealed thereby. Restructure "special operator" handling to fetch operators via index opclasses rather than hardwiring assumptions about names (cleans up the pattern_ops stuff a little).
This directory does more than tokenize and parse SQL queries. It also creates Query structures for the various complex queries that is passed to the optimizer and then executor. parser.c things start here scan.l break query into tokens scansup.c handle escapes in input keywords.c turn keywords into specific tokens gram.y parse the tokens and fill query-type-specific structures analyze.c handle post-parse processing for each query type parse_clause.c handle clauses like WHERE, ORDER BY, GROUP BY, ... parse_coerce.c used for coercing expressions of different types parse_expr.c handle expressions like col, col + 3, x = 3 or x = 4 parse_oper.c handle operations in expressions parse_agg.c handle aggregates, like SUM(col1), AVG(col2), ... parse_func.c handle functions, table.column and column identifiers parse_node.c create nodes for various structures parse_target.c handle the result list of the query parse_relation.c support routines for tables and column handling parse_type.c support routines for type handling
