4d72af6 Describe type casts under the heading of Value Expressions, and explain the difference between a run-time type cast and casting a literal string to a specific type. Minor editorial work in same area. 09 January 2002, 23:38:06 UTC

7dc2dc2 Make improvements to pg_upgrade; is still disabled. 09 January 2002, 16:00:46 UTC
5ac1098 Add quotes around $bindir. 09 January 2002, 04:56:44 UTC
da1c114 Make spelling of operating system names match official version closely. And listing QNX 6 as both supported and unsupported is probably not helpful. 09 January 2002, 00:52:38 UTC
d079c41 Fix include paths for case of VPATH build. 09 January 2002, 00:06:42 UTC

5490c72 make install failed in VPATH build. 08 January 2002, 23:40:02 UTC
a34f313 Fix copy-and-paste mistake exposed by gcc warning. 08 January 2002, 23:34:47 UTC
bf2e5ee In a VPATH build, resultmap must be one of the symlinked files, else pg_regress doesn't see it and you don't get any port-specific comparisons. 08 January 2002, 21:00:30 UTC
154ccb6 Revert last change (CFLAGS+=-g). Probably was a mistake... 08 January 2002, 20:41:28 UTC
aecd85d Update Lockhart's email address. < * Thomas is Thomas Lockhart <lockhart@alumni.caltech.edu> --- > * Thomas is Thomas Lockhart <lockhart@fourpalms.org> 08 January 2002, 20:04:31 UTC

f88aa2d Update my2pg to version 1.22. 07 January 2002, 22:36:51 UTC
6d6b3e9 Add variants of digest() and hmac() that accept text inputs. Marko Kreen says: This is so obvious that I would like to make it 'official'. Seems like the theology around bytea<>text casting kept me from seeing the simple :) 07 January 2002, 18:56:09 UTC
5b9a058 Tweak LWLock algorithms so that an awakened waiter for a lock is not granted the lock when awakened; the signal now only means that the lock is potentially available. The waiting process must retry its attempt to get the lock when it gets to run. This allows the lock releasing process to re-acquire the lock later in its timeslice. Since LWLocks are usually held for short periods, it is possible for a process to acquire and release the same lock many times in a timeslice. The old spinlock-based implementation of these locks allowed for that; but the original coding of LWLock would force a process swap for each acquisition if there was any contention. Although this approach reopens the door to process starvation (a waiter might repeatedly fail to get the lock), the odds of that being a big problem seem low, and the performance cost of the previous approach is considerable. 07 January 2002, 16:33:00 UTC
5445283 Fixed parser to accept initializing expressions starting with "(". 07 January 2002, 16:25:45 UTC
731204e Editorial review 07 January 2002, 02:29:15 UTC
a510bf4 If we fail to fork a new backend process, (try to) report the failure to the client before closing the connection. Before 7.2 this was done correctly, but new code would simply close the connection with no report to the client. 06 January 2002, 21:40:02 UTC
96ad60e Fix ecpg wording to be consistent. 06 January 2002, 18:12:00 UTC

e59c15e Fix copy-and-paste brain damage. (These commands do not create a database.) 06 January 2002, 03:33:26 UTC
3b6cbce Add CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() in various strategic spots, per comments from Hiroshi. 06 January 2002, 00:37:44 UTC
734e421 Bugfix for bug reported by Marcus Better (marcus@dactylis.com). When preforming a get on a bytea value the code was running the raw value from the server through character set conversion, which if the character set was SQL_ASCII would cause all 8bit characters to become ?'s. 05 January 2002, 22:26:23 UTC

99a3396 ecpg.sgml manual page updated to ON. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- When you run 'ecpg --help' you get the following: -t turn on autocommit of transactions amongst the other options... Shouldn't this be OFF as per the documentation? Best regards, Lee. -- Lee Kindness, Senior Software Engineer, lkindness@csl.co.uk 04 January 2002, 18:58:46 UTC

11d4c2c Add from Vadim: > * Allow command blocks that can ignore certain types of errors 04 January 2002, 18:23:56 UTC
1aff1d3 Fix some incorrect and obsolete commentary. 04 January 2002, 17:06:51 UTC
c5c28ed Add more complete details on date/time keywords and parsing rules. Move some tabular information on these from the chapter on data types to the appendix on dates and times. 04 January 2002, 17:02:25 UTC
c826d1c Have to_date() call timestamptz_date() per Karel's email instructions. Fixes time zone problems introduced by Thomas' implementation of TIMESTAMP WITHOUT TIME ZONE which caused the behavior of the previously appropriate routine, timestamp_date(), to change for the worse in this context. 04 January 2002, 15:49:42 UTC
5a60ba5 Replace #ifdef, #endif with # requires comment. 04 January 2002, 05:50:25 UTC
0b79ed2 Update FAQ. 04 January 2002, 05:44:45 UTC

f27b0ee Remove: < * Allow only owner to create indexes 04 January 2002, 04:53:26 UTC
dc6b4de Require ownership permission for CREATE INDEX, per bug report. Disallow CREATE INDEX on system catalogs, non-tables (views, sequences, etc). Disallow CREATE/DROP TRIGGER on system catalogs, non-tables. Disallow ALTER TABLE ADD/DROP CONSTRAINT on system catalogs. Disallow FOREIGN KEY reference to non-table. None of these things can actually work in the present system structure, but the code was letting them pass without complaint. 03 January 2002, 23:21:32 UTC
d02f0aa Instead of waiting a fixed amount of time for the test postmaster to start up, wait until a psql connection attempt succeeds. Per gripe from Jason Tishler. 03 January 2002, 21:52:05 UTC
0e3793e Prefer savepoints term: < allow error codes to be specified; requires nested transactions --- > allow error codes to be specified; requires savepoints 321c321 < * Allow nested transactions / savepoints [transactions] --- > * Allow savepoints / nested transactions [transactions] 03 January 2002, 21:15:04 UTC

85974a7 Add to java mention of pl/j. 03 January 2002, 17:18:19 UTC
b9da4b7 Droplang didn't have test for -l, list. This was really broken too. Took test from createlang. 03 January 2002, 08:53:00 UTC
4ecd278 Add mention that createlang.sh indirection not needed but kept for later. 03 January 2002, 08:38:00 UTC

Is that true? At some point it was casted to (uint32*) so I wanted to be sure its ok. ATM its pointless. Please apply the following patch. -- marko 03 January 2002, 07:21:48 UTC
bc29b06 Add mention of index on foreign key for frequently updated primary key tables. 03 January 2002, 06:26:22 UTC
a4ee277 droplang had same problem as createlang; default are backwards and did not work. Fixed to match createlang. 03 January 2002, 06:09:02 UTC
f9b792c Add to pool discussion. 03 January 2002, 05:52:48 UTC
2446e30 Added < o Move to using 'make' rather than 'ant'(?) --- > o Support both 'make' and 'ant' 03 January 2002, 05:48:48 UTC
9d77dcc Add mention of PRIMARY in ALTER TABLE ... [ UNIQUE | PRIMARY ] 03 January 2002, 05:37:43 UTC
04f3342 In createlang, make dbname optional, not langname, or rather, make existing code of dbname optional actually work. 03 January 2002, 05:30:04 UTC
b3d9768 Remove: < * Change 'createlang [langname] dbname' to 'createlang langname [dbname]' 03 January 2002, 05:20:34 UTC
d5de91d Added: > * Change 'createlang [langname] dbname' to 'createlang langname [dbname]' 03 January 2002, 05:06:50 UTC
b36df04 Guard against roundoff errors in new selectivity-estimation code, per bug report from Laurette Cisneros. 03 January 2002, 04:02:34 UTC
bb2bff4 Fix to_timestamp/to_date so that zero year input for Y, YY, or YYY formats will be taken as 2000, not year zero. Per bug report from Aasmund Midttun Godal. Fix from Karel Zak. 02 January 2002, 22:09:23 UTC
e274325 Fix incorrect description of rowtype variable declarations. Eventually (IMHO) the code should be fixed to do what the documentation formerly claimed, and then revert this change. 02 January 2002, 00:41:26 UTC
4764ae8 Do not accept interrupts in RESUME_INTERRUPTS() and END_CRIT_SECTION() macros, but only at explicit CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() calls. Not clear whether overenthusiastic acceptance of interrupts accounts for any real bugs, but it definitely seems risky and unnecessary. 01 January 2002, 23:16:22 UTC
1ccc676 Fix race condition that could allow two concurrent transactions to insert the same key into a supposedly unique index. The bug is of low probability, and may not explain any of the recent reports of duplicated rows; but a bug is a bug. 01 January 2002, 20:32:37 UTC
c546170 Rename TIME token to ISOTIME to eliminate conflict with gram.y parser token. Seems to be isolated to datetime.c and datetime.h. 01 January 2002, 02:54:33 UTC
