a SubLink expression into a rule query. Pre-8.1 we essentially did this
unconditionally; 8.1 tries to do it only when needed, but was missing a
couple of cases. Per report from Kyle Bateman. Add some regression test
cases covering this area.
comment line where output as too long, and update typedefs for /lib
directory. Also fix case where identifiers were used as variable names
in the backend, but as typedefs in ecpg (favor the backend for
indenting).
Backpatch to 8.1.X.
process of dropping roles by dropping objects owned by them and privileges
granted to them, or giving the owned objects to someone else, through the
use of the data stored in the new pg_shdepend catalog.
Some refactoring of the GRANT/REVOKE code was needed, as well as ALTER OWNER
code. Further cleanup of code duplication in the GRANT code seems necessary.
Implemented by me after an idea from Tom Lane, who also provided various kind
of implementation advice.
Regression tests pass. Some tests for the new functionality are also added,
as well as rudimentary documentation.
- supports multibyte encodings
- more strict rules for lexemes
- flex isn't used
Add:
- tsquery plainto_tsquery(text)
Function makes tsquery from plain text.
- &&, ||, !! operation for tsquery for combining
tsquery from it's parts: 'foo & bar' || 'asd' => 'foo & bar | asd'
tuple in-place, but instead passes back an all-new tuple structure if
any changes are needed. This is a much cleaner and more robust solution
for the bug discovered by Alexey Beschiokov; accordingly, revert the
quick hack I installed yesterday.
With this change, HeapTupleData.t_datamcxt is no longer needed; will
remove it in a separate commit in HEAD only.
doing heap_insert or heap_update, wipe out any extracted fields in
the TupleTableSlot containing the tuple, because they might not be valid
anymore if tuptoaster.c changed the tuple. Safe because slot must be
in the materialized state, but mighty ugly --- find a better answer!
the array (for array_push) or higher-dimensional array (for array_cat)
rather than decrementing it as before. This avoids generating lower
bounds other than one for any array operation within the SQL spec. Per
recent discussion.
Interestingly, this seems to have been the original behavior, because
while updating the docs I noticed that a large fraction of relevant
examples were *wrong* for the old behavior and are now right. Is it
worth correcting this in the back-branch docs?
recursed twice on its first argument, leading to exponential time spent
on a deep nest of COALESCEs ... such as a deeply nested FULL JOIN would
produce. Per report from Matt Carter.
functionality, but I still need to make another pass looking at places
that incidentally use arrays (such as ACL manipulation) to make sure they
are null-safe. Contrib needs work too.
I have not changed the behaviors that are still under discussion about
array comparison and what to do with lower bounds.
that was added to localbuf.c in 8.1; therefore, applying it to a temp table
left corrupt lookup state in memory. The only case where this had a
significant chance of causing problems was an ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS temp
table; the other possible paths left bogus state that was unlikely to
be used again. Per report from Csaba Nagy.
