Raw Blame History

2001-05-04 22:57 momjian
* HISTORY, register.txt, doc/src/sgml/release.sgml: UPdate for
release tomorrow.
2001-05-04 19:11 tgl
* doc/src/sgml/runtime.sgml: COMMIT_DELAY and COMMIT_SIBLINGS were
missing from the list of WAL configuration parameters in chapter 3.
2001-05-04 18:01 tgl
* src/backend/parser/Makefile: Makefile should have automatic
dependency for parser.o too, if it's going to have any at all.
2001-05-04 14:39 tgl
* src/backend/access/transam/xact.c: Seems like we should not hold
off cancel/die interrupts while we are running deferred triggers.
They are really part of the regular transaction, and they could
take awhile.
2001-05-03 22:54 momjian
* doc/src/sgml/runtime.sgml: Add missing tag.
2001-05-03 18:53 tgl
* src/: backend/utils/adt/datetime.c,
backend/utils/adt/formatting.c, backend/utils/adt/timestamp.c,
include/utils/datetime.h: Consolidate several near-identical uses
of mktime() into a single routine DetermineLocalTimeZone(). In
that routine, be more wary of broken mktime() implementations than
the original code was: don't allow mktime to change the already-set
y/m/d/h/m/s information, and don't use tm_gmtoff if mktime failed.
Possibly this will resolve some of the complaints we've been
hearing from users of Middle Eastern timezones on RedHat.
2001-05-03 17:38 momjian
* doc/src/sgml/charset.sgml,
src/backend/utils/mb/Unicode/KOI8_to_utf8.map,
src/backend/utils/mb/Unicode/utf8_to_KOI8.map,
src/include/mb/pg_wchar.h, src/interfaces/odbc/multibyte.h: BTW it
does not add encodign it just patches existing one (KOI8) to
support two - KOI8-R and KOI8-U (latter is superset of the former
if not to take to the account pseudographics)
Andy Rysin
2001-05-03 17:16 tgl
* src/backend/rewrite/rewriteDefine.c: Permission checking wasn't
quite right for insert/update/delete rules, either :-(.
2001-05-03 16:39 momjian
* HISTORY, doc/src/sgml/release.sgml: pg_dump can dump 7.0
databases.
2001-05-03 15:20 momjian
* src/test/locale/test-ctype.c: apply a little patch:
Oleg Bartunov
2001-05-03 15:00 tgl
* src/: backend/access/nbtree/nbtcompare.c,
backend/utils/adt/date.c, backend/utils/adt/float.c,
backend/utils/adt/nabstime.c, backend/utils/adt/numeric.c,
backend/utils/adt/timestamp.c, backend/utils/adt/varbit.c,
backend/utils/adt/varchar.c, backend/utils/adt/varlena.c,
include/utils/nabstime.h,
test/regress/expected/abstime-solaris-1947.out,
test/regress/expected/abstime.out,
test/regress/expected/timestamp.out: Ensure that btree sort
ordering functions and boolean comparison operators give consistent
results for all datatypes. Types float4, float8, and numeric were
broken for NaN values; abstime, timestamp, and interval were broken
for INVALID values; timetz was just plain broken (some possible
pairs of values were neither < nor = nor >). Also clean up text,
bpchar, varchar, and bit/varbit to eliminate duplicate code and
thereby reduce the probability of similar inconsistencies arising
in the future.
2001-05-03 13:50 tgl
* doc/src/sgml/ref/create_table.sgml: Describe handling of
multiply-inherited fields correctly.
2001-05-03 13:47 tgl
* src/backend/rewrite/rewriteHandler.c: Permissions were not
checked correctly when one view invokes another. Per bug report
from Lieven Van Acker, 5/2/01.
2001-05-03 13:28 momjian
* doc/src/sgml/runtime.sgml: Update shared memory docs.
2001-05-03 13:20 momjian
* src/tools/RELEASE_CHANGES: Improve list.
2001-05-03 13:17 momjian
* HISTORY, doc/src/sgml/release.sgml: Final stamp for 7.1.1. All
done.
2001-05-03 12:47 momjian
* src/: include/config.h.win32, interfaces/libpq/libpq.rc,
tools/RELEASE_CHANGES: Updates for 7.1.1. Not done yet.
2001-05-03 12:43 momjian
* configure: autoconf
2001-05-03 12:26 momjian
* HISTORY, README, configure.in, register.txt, doc/bug.template,
doc/src/sgml/release.sgml: Some updates for 7.1.1.
2001-05-03 12:18 tgl
* src/include/catalog/pg_type.h: Correct pg_description entry for
type macaddr.
2001-05-03 12:07 tgl
* src/: interfaces/ecpg/include/sqlca.h,
interfaces/ecpg/test/Makefile, makefiles/Makefile.win: Fixes to
make ecpg work on Cygwin, from Jason Tishler
<Jason.Tishler@dothill.com>.
2001-05-03 08:32 darcy
* contrib/chkpass/: Makefile, README.chkpass, chkpass.c,
chkpass.sql: Initial checkin of a contributed type that handles
passwords efficiently.
2001-05-02 16:35 momjian
* doc/src/sgml/ref/drop_aggregate.sgml: In the outputs section the
NOTICE reads: aggregate 'agg' for 'type' does not exist.
Mismatch with synopsis, agg must be name here.
Frank Wegmann
2001-05-02 13:04 momjian
* doc/src/sgml/runtime.sgml: Added mention of SHMALL and removed
BSD/OS-specific table.
2001-05-02 10:46 momjian
* doc/src/sgml/ref/createuser.sgml: description of the command line
option echo should read:
Echo the queries that createuser generates and sends to the
backend. ^^^^^^^^^^
Frank Wegmann
2001-05-02 10:23 tgl
* src/interfaces/odbc/win32.mak: Previous commit mistakenly
converted all newlines to DOS style (CR/LF). Convert back to Unix
style --- it seems some versions of nmake insist on this.
2001-05-02 07:21 darcy
* src/interfaces/python/README: Add note explaining why inserts
take longer as tables grow. Also suggest the way to handle this.
2001-05-02 07:17 darcy
* src/interfaces/python/pgmodule.c: Change "|zzlzzzz" argument
specification to "|zzizzzz" so that the code works properly on 64
bit systems.
Change submitted by Marc Poinot (Marc.Poinot@onera.fr)
2001-05-01 06:50 petere
* doc/src/sgml/version.sgml: Bump version to 7.1.1. Now run over
to hub to rebuild documentation before release...
2001-05-01 06:48 petere
* doc/src/sgml/: libpq++.sgml, libpq.sgml: More markup fixes
2001-04-30 23:00 tgl
* doc/src/sgml/runtime.sgml: Fix slightly confused description of
debug options.
2001-04-30 22:33 tgl
* src/interfaces/ecpg/preproc/preproc.y: Synced gram.y and
preproc.y.
2001-04-30 21:36 thomas
* src/backend/parser/gram.y: Allow a string argument to the
EXTRACT() function. This is an extension to the SQL9x standard,
but is consistant with usage of the underlying date_part()
function used to implement it. Example: EXTRACT('YEAR',...) No
impact on regression tests.
2001-04-30 20:47 inoue
* src/interfaces/odbc/: parse.c, psqlodbc.h, psqlodbc.rc,
qresult.c: 1) fix bugs reported by Andrea Aime. 2) fix a bug
reported by Jan Wieck. psqlodbc is 7.01.0005 now.
2001-04-30 19:55 tgl
* doc/FAQ_HPUX: Update FAQ_HPUX now that we have reports of
out-of-the-box build on HPUX 11.
2001-04-30 18:22 tgl
* doc/src/sgml/pltcl.sgml: Document pltcl's return_null command.
2001-04-30 18:21 tgl
* doc/src/sgml/: libpq++.sgml, libpq.sgml: Repair freshly-broken
markup.
2001-04-30 16:05 tgl
* src/pl/plpgsql/src/pl_exec.c: exec_move_row() should be more
forgiving of tuples with a different number of columns than it was
expecting, for reasons that are now documented in the code...
2001-04-30 15:24 tgl
* src/backend/optimizer/plan/planner.c: Suppress pull-up of
subqueries that are in the nullable side of an outer join. This is
needed to avoid improper evaluation of expressions that should be
nulled out, as in Victor Wagner's bug report of 4/27/01. Pretty
ugly solution, but no time to do anything better for 7.1.1.
2001-04-30 13:38 momjian
* doc/src/sgml/: libpq++.sgml, libpq.sgml: Break up PQexec() result
functions into subsections to be clearer. Both libpq and libpq++
reorganized.
2001-04-30 00:26 momjian
* doc/src/sgml/: libpgtcl.sgml, libpq++.sgml: Add mention of
libpgtcl's options to manual, libpq++ markup fixes.
2001-04-29 03:27 ishii
* src/backend/utils/mb/: conv.c, Unicode/ALT_to_utf8.map,
Unicode/KOI8_to_utf8.map, Unicode/Makefile,
Unicode/UCS_to_cyrillic.pl, Unicode/WIN_to_utf8.map,
Unicode/utf8_to_ALT.map, Unicode/utf8_to_KOI8.map,
Unicode/utf8_to_WIN.map: Add missing Unicode support for Cyrillic
encodings. Patches contributed by Victor Wagner.
2001-04-28 09:59 momjian
* doc/src/sgml/ref/: create_function.sgml, drop_function.sgml: In
create_function there is a remark concerning SQL/PSM not being
ratified as yet. This is certainly no longer true, it wasn't even
true in Q2/1998 when I did a little research for Date's book.
SQL/PSM had been published on 1996-12-15 as ISO/IEC 9075:4. So you
might want to update that section.
Frank Wegmann
2001-04-26 21:31 momjian
* doc/src/sgml/ref/pg_ctl-ref.sgml: A small patch for a small
option (for rel. 7.1).
Jimmy Olgeni
2001-04-26 20:55 momjian
* doc/: FAQ, src/FAQ/FAQ.html: Update FAQ.
2001-04-26 20:21 momjian
* doc/: FAQ, src/FAQ/FAQ.html, FAQ, src/FAQ/FAQ.html: Update FAQ.
2001-04-26 17:52 tgl
* src/backend/utils/adt/nabstime.c: Remove bogus Assert from
AbsoluteTimeIsBefore(). (If you don't think it's bogus, try
building a btree index on the regress tests' abstime_tbl.)
2001-04-25 18:04 tgl
* src/backend/optimizer/path/costsize.c: Tweak nestloop costing to
weight restart cost of inner path more heavily. Without this, it
was making some pretty silly decisions about whether an expensive
sub-SELECT should be the inner or outer side of a join...
2001-04-25 03:03 pjw
* src/bin/pg_dump/: pg_backup.h, pg_backup_archiver.c,
pg_backup_archiver.h, pg_backup_custom.c, pg_backup_db.c,
pg_backup_tar.c, pg_dump.c, pg_dump.h: - Fixed CONSTRAINT TRIGGER
dump to record tgconstrelid properly - pgsql v7.0 compatbility
2001-04-24 16:05 petere
* doc/FAQ_MSWIN: typological errors
2001-04-23 20:08 tgl
* src/include/nodes/nodes.h: Undo pgindent brain damage, so that
node type numbers can once again be counted off by lines ...
2001-04-23 19:36 tgl
* src/bin/pg_dump/pg_dump.c: Behave sanely when database name is
omitted from command line.
2001-04-23 16:27 petere
* src/backend/Makefile: Send 'cd' output to /dev/null.
2001-04-23 11:14 tgl
* configure, configure.in: Defend against ancient versions of zlib
by checking that zlib.h defines z_streamp.
2001-04-23 00:32 tgl
* src/backend/parser/parse_oper.c: compatible_oper needs to do
ReleaseSysCache in one path to avoid complaints about 'Cache
reference leak'. Per report from Don Baccus.
2001-04-22 21:41 inoue
* src/interfaces/odbc/: columninfo.c, connection.c, convert.c,
execute.c, qresult.c: 1) Decrease the size of needlessly large
buffers. For example, it resolved the stack over flow errors
reported by Johann Zuschlag. 2) Support {oj syntax for 71.
servers.
2001-04-22 21:00 inoue
* src/interfaces/odbc/: bind.c, convert.c, execute.c, pgtypes.c,
pgtypes.h, statement.c, statement.h: A patch to fix the following
bugs. 1) [ODBC] Psqlodbc and Centura: here it is a patch
posted by Matteo Cavalleli 2) [ODBC] pgsqODBC binding parameters II
posted by Ludek Finstrle 3) Invalid Page Fault in
PSQLODBC.DLL personal mail from Johann Zuschlag
Hiroki Kataoka kataoka@interwiz.koganei.tokyo.jp
2001-04-22 17:34 tgl
* src/bin/pg_dump/pg_dump.c: Don't bomb out on indexes on system
attributes other than 'oid'. (Not sure such an index is actually
useful, but just because it's useless doesn't mean pg_dump should
coredump.)
2001-04-21 14:29 tgl
* src/backend/: main/main.c, utils/init/findbe.c,
utils/init/postinit.c: Remove useless setuid() call, instead add a
check that real and effective userids are the same. Per today's
pghackers discussion.
2001-04-21 07:23 petere
* src/bin/pg_ctl/pg_ctl.sh: Make sure that the postmaster options
(from postmaster.opts[.default] or -o option) are properly
dequoted. Also, always pass an explicit -D option to postmaster,
don't rely on it being set in postmaster.opts.
2001-04-20 11:52 thomas
* doc/src/sgml/: Makefile, biblio.sgml, catalogs.sgml,
charset.sgml, docguide.sgml, func.sgml, geqo.sgml, libpgeasy.sgml,
mvcc.sgml, user-manag.sgml: Final markup for 7.1 hardcopy release.
Mostly typo and table-fitting adjustments. Note that many tables
are being abused with *really* long description columns. Should
probably shrink those columns to be more concise, and move some of
the info to follow-on reference notes.
2001-04-20 11:50 thomas
* doc/src/sgml/fixrtf: Add option --refentry to change \keepn (keep
with next paragraph) to \keep (keep current paragraph together).
This fixes most troubles with reference pages marked up with
<refentry> tags. Use on reference.rtf, generated by "make
reference.rtf".
2001-04-19 16:27 petere
* configure, configure.in: Remove libsfio check.
2001-04-19 15:17 petere
* contrib/start-scripts/: freebsd, linux: Pass -D option to pg_ctl
because export PGDATA won't be preserved across 'su -l'.
Reported by <VASQUEZ_JASON@LILLY.COM>.
2001-04-19 15:09 petere
* src/backend/postmaster/postmaster.c: Add extern int optreset
declaration, per bug report from <info@decc.nl>.
2001-04-19 15:01 petere
* src/backend/utils/adt/varchar.c: Fix "off by VARHDRSZ" bug in
(Cyrillic) recode support.
2001-04-19 00:29 tgl
* src/backend/executor/execQual.c: Kluge solution for Alex
Pilosov's report of problems with whole-tuple function arguments in
join queries: copy the tuples into TransactionCommandContext so
they don't get recycled too soon. This is horrid, but not any
worse than 7.0 or before, which also leaked such tuples until end
of query. A proper fix will require allowing tuple datums to be
physically stored inside larger tuple datums, which opens up a
bunch of issues that can't realistically be solved for 7.1.1.
2001-04-18 22:34 ishii
* src/backend/utils/mb/wchar.c: Add a crash gurard to
pg_encoding_mblen in case of an invalid encoding given.
2001-04-18 18:25 tgl
* src/backend/parser/parse_func.c: Further tweaking of error
messages for cases involving attributes & functions of join or
subselect aliases. It'd be awfully nice if this code knew for sure
whether it was dealing with 'x.f' or 'f(x)' syntax; maybe we can
fix that in a future cycle.
2001-04-18 16:53 petere
* src/bin/psql/command.c: Repair misbehavior of \! with immediately
following argument that contains spaces (e.g., '\!ls -l'). Also
correct a comment.
2001-04-18 16:42 tgl
* src/: backend/optimizer/plan/planner.c,
backend/optimizer/util/var.c, backend/rewrite/rewriteManip.c,
include/optimizer/var.h, pl/plpgsql/src/gram.y,
pl/plpgsql/src/pl_comp.c, pl/plpgsql/src/scan.l: Make the world
safe for passing whole rows of views to functions. This already
worked fine for whole rows of tables, but not so well for views...
2001-04-18 13:04 tgl
* src/backend/: parser/parse_relation.c, utils/adt/ruleutils.c:
Make rule lister do the right thing with Vars representing whole
tuples.
2001-04-17 03:30 inoue
* src/interfaces/odbc/readme.txt: The renewal of README thanks to
Dave Page.
2001-04-16 20:32 tgl
* src/backend/rewrite/rewriteHandler.c: Add some defenses to guard
against case where a rule refers to a table or view that's been
dropped and then recreated with the same name (but, perhaps,
different columns). Eventually we'd like to support this but for
now all we can do is fail cleanly, rather than possibly coredumping
if we proceed using the obsolete rule.
2001-04-16 15:44 tgl
* src/backend/optimizer/plan/initsplan.c: Avoid reversing
user-given order of WHERE clauses while attaching clauses to
specific base or join RelOptInfo nodes during planning. This
preserves the more-intuitive behavior of 7.0.* --- if you write an
expensive clause (such as a sub-select) last, it should get
evaluated last. Someday we ought to try to have some intelligence
about the order of evaluation of WHERE clauses, but for now we
should not override what the user wrote.
2001-04-16 02:10 ishii
* src/backend/utils/mb/Unicode/: UCS_to_BIG5.pl, UCS_to_EUC_CN.pl,
UCS_to_EUC_JP.pl, UCS_to_EUC_KR.pl, UCS_to_EUC_TW.pl,
UCS_to_SJIS.pl, big5_to_utf8.map, euc_cn_to_utf8.map,
euc_jp_to_utf8.map, euc_kr_to_utf8.map, euc_tw_to_utf8.map,
sjis_to_utf8.map, utf8_to_big5.map, utf8_to_euc_cn.map,
utf8_to_euc_jp.map, utf8_to_euc_kr.map, utf8_to_euc_tw.map,
utf8_to_sjis.map: Correction for mathematical properties in Unicode
converison maps. Patches contributed by Eiji Tokuya
(e-tokuya@sankyo-unyu.co.jp)
2001-04-16 00:20 momjian
* doc/: FAQ_japanese, src/FAQ/FAQ_japanese.html: Update Japanese
FAQ's.
2001-04-15 22:42 tgl
* src/backend/utils/: init/miscinit.c, mb/common.c, mb/mbutils.c:
getdatabaseencoding() and PG_encoding_to_char() were being sloppy
about converting char* strings to type 'name'. Imagine my surprise
when 7.1 release coredumped upon start when compiled
--enable-multibyte ...
2001-04-15 21:46 tgl
* src/backend/libpq/pqformat.c: Remove error report from
pq_endmessage when pq_putmessage fails. The only possible failure
is in pq_flush, which will log a (better!) report anyway --- so
pq_endmessage is just cluttering the log with a redundant entry.
This matters when a client crashes partway through a large query,
since we will emit many broken-pipe reports before finishing the
query and exiting.
2001-04-14 23:25 tgl
* src/Makefile.shlib: Add LDFLAGS_SL to AIX shlib building command,
per report from Rocco Altier <roccoa@routescape.com>.
2001-04-14 23:14 tgl
* src/backend/utils/adt/ruleutils.c: Constant expressions that
appear in ORDER BY, GROUP BY, DISTINCT ON lists should be
reverse-compiled into targetlist index numbers, because that's the
only interpretation the parser allows for a constant in these
clauses. (Ergo, the only way they could have gotten into the list
in the first place is to have come from the targetlist; so this
should always work.) Per problem report from Peter E.
2001-04-14 20:48 tgl
* src/backend/optimizer/path/joinpath.c: Prevent generation of
invalid plans for RIGHT or FULL joins with multiple join clauses.
The mergejoin executor wants all the join clauses to appear as
merge quals, not as extra joinquals, for these kinds of joins. But
the planner would consider plans in which partially-sorted input
paths were used, leading to only some of the join clauses becoming
merge quals. This is fine for inner/left joins, not fine for
right/full joins.
2001-04-14 20:43 petere
* src/bin/psql/common.c: If the password prompt goes to stderr,
then the trailing newline should also go there.
2001-04-14 18:55 petere
* configure, configure.in, src/bin/psql/tab-complete.c,
src/include/config.h.in: Work with Readline 4.2.
2001-04-14 15:11 momjian
* src/backend/tcop/postgres.c: Add debug_query_string global
variable for pgmonitor and debugging use.
2001-04-14 09:11 pjw
* src/bin/pg_dump/: pg_backup_archiver.c, pg_backup_archiver.h,
pg_backup_tar.c, pg_dump.c, pg_dump.h: - Get view OID based on rule
OID not base table OID - Fix crash due to null string pointer in
some tar files with some libs
2001-04-13 22:10 tgl
* src/backend/utils/adt/numeric.c: Another try at making numeric
MODULO operator produce the right answer. Although it was now
using the right equation, it was making bogus choices of the
precision to compute intermediate results to. I'm not sure this is
really right even yet, but it's better than before ...
2001-04-13 19:32 tgl
* src/include/storage/s_lock.h: Suppress compiler warnings in Vax
and NS32K assembly code: 'register foo' is not a complete
declaration.
2001-04-13 17:21 scrappy
* configure, configure.in, ChangeLogs/ChangeLog-7.1rc4-7.1:
tag the source tree as REL7_1, renaming the old tag REL7_1_BETA
like it should have been done
generate a new Changelog from rc4, which is nice and short ... one
python interface change
tag configure as 7.1, for generating the packages ...
This is it folks ... Release 7.1 is officially here ...
2001-04-13 14:38 momjian
* HISTORY: Remove as-of from HISTORY file.
2001-04-12 05:49 darcy
* src/interfaces/python/pgdb.py: I just noticed the beta comment.
That's not actually true any more so I removed it.
