Thomas G. Lockhart ca354d9027 Implement TIMEZONE_HOUR, TIMEZONE_MINUTE per SQL92 specs. Check for and properly ignore FOREIGN KEY column constraints (already had fixed same for table constraints). Define USER as synonym for CURRENT_USER per SQL92 specs (no longer allowed as bare column name, sorry). Re-enable HAVING clause but no fixes elsewhere yet. Make "char" type a synonum for "char(1)" (actually implemented as bpchar). Compress/compact row-style subselect and operator definitions (cut out ~140 lines of code with no change in functionality). Save string type if specified for DEFAULT clause handling. Enough for now...		1998-05-09 23:22:15 +00:00
