| | | | | Applied patch send by ITAGAKI Takahiro <itagaki.takahiro@oss.ntt.co.jp> to fix bug in connect statement if user name is a variable. Also fixed test case that didn't detect this.

* Update required TeX settingsPeter Eisentraut2007-12-28

* Improve consistency of error reporting in GUC assign_hook routines. SomeTom Lane2007-12-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | were reporting ERROR for interactive assignments and LOG for other cases, some were saying nothing for non-interactive cases, and a few did yet other things. Make them use a new function GUC_complaint_elevel() to establish a reasonably uniform policy about how to report. There are still a few edge cases such as assign_search_path(), but it's much better than before. Per gripe from Devrim Gunduz and subsequent discussion. As noted by Alvaro, it'd be better to fold these custom messages into the standard "invalid parameter value" complaint from guc.c, perhaps as the DETAIL field. However that will require more redesign than seems prudent for 8.3. This is a relatively safe, low-impact change that we can afford to risk now.
* Disallow digits and lower-case ASCII letters as the delimiter in non-CSVTom Lane2007-12-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | COPY. We need a restriction here because when the delimiter occurs as a data character, it is emitted with a backslash, and that will only work as desired if CopyReadAttributesText() will interpret the backslash sequence as representing the second character literally. This is currently untrue for 'b', 'f', 'n', 'r', 't', 'v', 'x', and octal digits. For future-proofing and simplicity of explanation, it seems best to disallow a-z and 0-9. We must also disallow dot, since "\." by itself would look like copy EOF. Note: "\N" is by default the null print string, so N would also cause a problem, but that is already tested for.
* Fix ill-advised usage of x?y:z expressions in errmsg() and errhint() calls.Tom Lane2007-12-27
| | | | | This prevented gettext from recognizing the strings that need to be translated.
* Swap the order of testing for control characters and for column delimiter inTom Lane2007-12-27
| | | | | | | | CopyAttributeOutText(), so that control characters are converted to the C-style escape sequences even if they happen to be equal to the column delimiter (as is true by default for tab, for example). Oversight in my previous patch to restore pre-8.3 behavior of COPY OUT escaping. Per report from Tomas Szepe.
* Wording improvementsPeter Eisentraut2007-12-27

* Modify pgindent to use an external typedefs file rather than includedBruce Momjian2007-12-21

* Fix a small typo, per Jan UrbanskiTom Lane2007-12-21
|
* On win32, loop when opening files if sharing- och lock-violation errorsMagnus Hagander2007-12-20
| | | | | occur. Hopefully, this will make it possible to recover from broken antivirus and/or backup software that locks our files.
* When given a nonzero column number, pg_get_indexdef() is only supposed toTom Lane2007-12-20
| | | | | | | | | print the index key variable or expression for that column. It was mistakenly printing ASC/DESC/NULLS FIRST/NULLS LAST decoration too --- and not only for the target column, but all columns. Someday we should have an option to extract that info (and the opclass decoration as well) for a single index column ... but today is not that day. Per bug #3829 and subsequent discussion.

* Make archiver process report its progress in PS display. PerTom Lane2007-12-18
| | | | proposal by Simon Riggs, though not exactly his patch.
* Make path_recv() and poly_recv() reject paths/polygons containing no points.Tom Lane2007-12-18
| | | | | | | | The zero-point case is sensible so far as the data structure is concerned, so maybe we ought to allow it sometime; but right now the textual input routines for these types don't allow it, and it seems that not all the functions for the types are prepared to cope. Report and patch by Merlin Moncure.
