|
Release 7.3
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Release date: 2002-??-??
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Overview
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Major changes in this release:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
SCHEMA SUPPORT
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Schemas allow users to create objects in their own namespace
|
||||||
|
so two people can have the same table with the same name.
|
||||||
|
There is also a public schema for shared tables.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
DROP COLUMN
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
PostgreSQL now support ALTER TABLE ... DROP COLUMN functionality.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Table Functions
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Functions can now return entire tables, with multiple rows
|
||||||
|
and multiple columns. You can specify these functions in
|
||||||
|
the SELECT FROM clause.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Privileges
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Functions and procedural languages now have privileges, and
|
||||||
|
people running them can take on the privileges of their creators.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Logging
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A variety of logging options have been enhanced.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Prepared Queries
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For performance, PostgreSQL now supports prepared queries.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Dependency Tracking
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
PostgreSQL now records object dependencies, which allows
|
||||||
|
improvements in many areas.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Multibyte/Locale
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Both multibyte and locale are now enabled by default.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Interfaces
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A large number of interfaces have been moved to
|
||||||
|
http://gborg.postgresql.org where they can be developed
|
||||||
|
and released independently.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Functions/Identifiers
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
By default, functions can now take up to 32 parameters, and
|
||||||
|
identifiers can be up to 64 bytes long.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Migration to version 7.3
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A dump/restore using "pg_dump" is required for those wishing to migrate
|
||||||
|
data from any previous release.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Observe the following incompatibilities:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Pre-6.3 clients are no longer supported.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* pg_hba.conf now has a USER column and additional features.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Several GUC logging parameters have been renamed and improved.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* LIMIT #,# is disabled, use LIMIT # OFFSET #.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* LIMIT can now appear before FOR UPDATE, for portability.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* INSERTs with column lists must specify all values, e.g.
|
||||||
|
INSERT INTO tab (col1, col2) VALUES ('val1') is now invalid
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* DROP object now takes either CASCADE or RESTRICT to control
|
||||||
|
whether dependent objects are also dropped
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* An index is now not automatically created for SERIAL columns
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* A SET inside an aborted transaction is now rolled back
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* COPY no longer considers missing trailing columns to be NULL
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* TIMESTAMP and TIME data types now default to WITHOUT TIMEZONE
|
||||||
|
|
