compiled for integer date/time storage and to check the length of
storage for the locale fields in the same data structure.
Slightly reword some of the error messages to be more accurate on
possible recovery options (e.g. recompile *or* re-initdb).
Bump version number on this file.
capabilities of specifying time zones as intervals per SQL9x.
Put refentrytitle contents on the same line as the tag.
Otherwise, leading whitespace is propagated into the product, which
(at least) messes up the ToC layout.
Remove (some) docinfo tags containing dates. Best to omit if the dates
are not accurate; maybe use CVS dates instead or leave them out.
different privilege bits (might as well make use of the space we were
wasting on padding). EXECUTE and USAGE bits for procedures, languages
now are separate privileges instead of being overlaid on SELECT. Add
privileges for namespaces and databases. The GRANT and REVOKE commands
work for these object types, but we don't actually enforce the privileges
yet...
Use flex flags -CF. Pass the to-be-scanned string around as StringInfo
type, to avoid querying the length repeatedly. Clean up some code and
remove lex-compatibility cruft. Escape backslash sequences inline. Use
flex-provided yy_scan_buffer() function to set up input, rather than using
myinput().
(tgrelid, tgname). This provides an additional check on trigger name
uniqueness per-table (which was already enforced by the code anyway).
With this change, RelationBuildTriggers will read the triggers in
order by tgname, since it's scanning using this index. Since a
predictable trigger ordering has been requested for some time, document
this behavior as a feature. Also document that rules fire in name
order, since yesterday's changes to pg_rewrite indexing cause that too.
DROP RULE and COMMENT ON RULE syntax adds an 'ON tablename' clause,
similar to TRIGGER syntaxes. To allow loading of existing pg_dump
files containing COMMENT ON RULE, the COMMENT code will still accept
the old syntax --- but only if the target rulename is unique across
the whole database.
an 'opclass owner' column in pg_opclass. Nothing is done with it at
present, but since there are plans to invent a CREATE OPERATOR CLASS
command soon, we'll probably want DROP OPERATOR CLASS too, which
suggests that a notion of ownership would be a good idea.
qualified operator names directly, for example CREATE OPERATOR myschema.+
( ... ). To qualify an operator name in an expression you need to write
OPERATOR(myschema.+) (thanks to Peter for suggesting an escape hatch).
I also took advantage of having to reformat pg_operator to fix something
that'd been bugging me for a while: mergejoinable operators should have
explicit links to the associated cross-data-type comparison operators,
rather than hardwiring an assumption that they are named < and >.
was in the thread "make BufferGetBlockNumber() a macro". Tom
objected to the original patch, so I prepared a new one which
doesn't change BufferGetBlockNumber() into a macro, it just
cleans up some comments and fixes an assertion. The patch
is attached.

The indexes on most system catalogs are named with the suffix "_index";
not so with TOAST table indexes, which use "_idx". This trivial patch
changes TOAST table index names to use the "_index" suffix for
consistency.
