* pgindent run for 9.0Bruce Momjian2010-02-26

* Stamp HEAD as 9.0devel, and update various places that were referring to 8.5Tom Lane2010-02-17
| | | | (hope I got 'em all). Per discussion, this release will be 9.0 not 8.5.
* Wrap calls to SearchSysCache and related functions using macros.Robert Haas2010-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | The purpose of this change is to eliminate the need for every caller of SearchSysCache, SearchSysCacheCopy, SearchSysCacheExists, GetSysCacheOid, and SearchSysCacheList to know the maximum number of allowable keys for a syscache entry (currently 4). This will make it far easier to increase the maximum number of keys in a future release should we choose to do so, and it makes the code shorter, too. Design and review by Tom Lane.
* Remove the default_do_language parameter, instead making DO use a hardwiredTom Lane2010-01-26
| | | | | | | | default of "plpgsql". This is more reasonable than it was when the DO patch was written, because we have since decided that plpgsql should be installed by default. Per discussion, having a parameter for this doesn't seem useful enough to justify the risk of application breakage if the value is changed unexpectedly.

* Keep track of language's trusted flag in InlineCodeBlock. Needed to support ↵Andrew Dunstan2009-11-06
| | | | DO blocks for languages that have both trusted and untrusted variants.
* Support use of function argument names to identify which actual argumentsTom Lane2009-10-08
| | | | | | | match which function parameters. The syntax uses AS, for example funcname(value AS arg1, anothervalue AS arg2) Pavel Stehule
* Implement the DO statement to support execution of PL code without havingTom Lane2009-09-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | to create a function for it. Procedural languages now have an additional entry point, namely a function to execute an inline code block. This seemed a better design than trying to hide the transient-ness of the code from the PL. As of this patch, only plpgsql has an inline handler, but probably people will soon write handlers for the other standard PLs. In passing, remove the long-dead LANCOMPILER option of CREATE LANGUAGE. Petr Jelinek
* 8.4 pgindent run, with new combined Linux/FreeBSD/MinGW typedef listBruce Momjian2009-06-11

* Add some sanity checks to CREATE CAST ... WITHOUT FUNCTION. DisallowHeikki Linnakangas2009-03-04
| | | | | | | composite, enum and array types, as those are surely not binary-compatible with anything else because of the embedded OIDs. Inspired by bug report by Oleg Serov.
* Repair a longstanding bug in CLUSTER and the rewriting variants of ALTERTom Lane2009-02-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TABLE: if the command is executed by someone other than the table owner (eg, a superuser) and the table has a toast table, the toast table's pg_type row ends up with the wrong typowner, ie, the command issuer not the table owner. This is quite harmless for most purposes, since no interesting permissions checks consult the pg_type row. However, it could lead to unexpected failures if one later tries to drop the role that issued the command (in 8.1 or 8.2), or strange warnings from pg_dump afterwards (in 8.3 and up, which will allow the DROP ROLE because we don't create a "redundant" owner dependency for table rowtypes). Problem identified by Cott Lang. Back-patch to 8.1. The problem is actually far older --- the CLUSTER variant can be demonstrated in 7.0 --- but it's mostly cosmetic before 8.1 because we didn't track ownership dependencies before 8.1. Also, fixing it before 8.1 would require changing the call signature of heap_create_with_catalog(), which seems to carry a nontrivial risk of breaking add-on modules.
* Add some comments about why function parameter default expressions areTom Lane2009-01-06

* Add a WINDOW attribute to CREATE FUNCTION, and teach pg_dump about it,Tom Lane2008-12-31
| | | | | | | | | | | so that user-defined window functions are possible. For the moment you'll have to write them in C, for lack of any interface to the WindowObject API in the available PLs, but it's better than no support at all. There was some debate about the best syntax for this. I ended up choosing the "it's an attribute" position --- the other approach will inevitably be more work, and the likely market for user-defined window functions is probably too small to justify it.
* Support window functions a la SQL:2008.Tom Lane2008-12-28
| | | | Hitoshi Harada, with some kibitzing from Heikki and Tom.
* Code review for function default parameters patch. Fix numerous problems asTom Lane2008-12-18
| | | | | per recent discussions. In passing this also fixes a couple of bugs in the previous variadic-parameters patch.
* Default values for function argumentsPeter Eisentraut2008-12-04
| | | | Pavel Stehule, with some tweaks by Peter Eisentraut
* Remove all uses of the deprecated functions heap_formtuple, heap_modifytuple,Tom Lane2008-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | | and heap_deformtuple in favor of the newer functions heap_form_tuple et al (which do the same things but use bool control flags instead of arbitrary char values). Eliminate the former duplicate coding of these functions, reducing the deprecated functions to mere wrappers around the newer ones. We can't get rid of them entirely because add-on modules probably still contain many instances of the old coding style. Kris Jurka
* Add support for user-defined I/O conversion casts.Heikki Linnakangas2008-10-31

* Use format_type_be() instead of TypeNameToString() for some more user-facingPeter Eisentraut2008-10-21
| | | | error messages where the type existence is established.
* Implement SQL-spec RETURNS TABLE syntax for functions.Tom Lane2008-07-18
| | | | | | | (Unlike the original submission, this patch treats TABLE output parameters as being entirely equivalent to OUT parameters -- tgl) Pavel Stehule
* Add a "provariadic" column to pg_proc to eliminate the remarkably expensiveTom Lane2008-07-16
| | | | | | | | | | need to deconstruct proargmodes for each pg_proc entry inspected by FuncnameGetCandidates(). Fixes function lookup performance regression caused by yesterday's variadic-functions patch. In passing, make pg_proc.probin be NULL, rather than a dummy value '-', in cases where it is not actually used for the particular type of function. This should buy back some of the space cost of the extra column.
* Support "variadic" functions, which can accept a variable number of argumentsTom Lane2008-07-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | so long as all the trailing arguments are of the same (non-array) type. The function receives them as a single array argument (which is why they have to all be the same type). It might be useful to extend this facility to aggregates, but this patch doesn't do that. This patch imposes a noticeable slowdown on function lookup --- a follow-on patch will fix that by adding a redundant column to pg_proc. Pavel Stehule
* More replacements of binary compatible to binary coercible.Peter Eisentraut2008-07-12
|
* Allow binary-coercible types for cast function arguments and return types.Peter Eisentraut2008-07-11
| | | | | | | Document return type of cast functions. Also change documentation to prefer the term "binary coercible" in its present sense instead of the previous term "binary compatible".
* Improve our #include situation by moving pointer types away from theAlvaro Herrera2008-06-19
| | | | | | | corresponding struct definitions. This allows other headers to avoid including certain highly-loaded headers such as rel.h and relscan.h, instead using just relcache.h, heapam.h or genam.h, which are more lightweight and thus cause less unnecessary dependencies.
* Restructure some header files a bit, in particular heapam.h, by removing someAlvaro Herrera2008-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | unnecessary #include lines in it. Also, move some tuple routine prototypes and macros to htup.h, which allows removal of heapam.h inclusion from some .c files. For this to work, a new header file access/sysattr.h needed to be created, initially containing attribute numbers of system columns, for pg_dump usage. While at it, make contrib ltree, intarray and hstore header files more consistent with our header style.
* Reduce the need for frontend programs to include "postgres.h" by refactoringTom Lane2008-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | inclusions in src/include/catalog/*.h files. The main idea here is to push function declarations for src/backend/catalog/*.c files into separate headers, rather than sticking them into the corresponding catalog definition file as has been done in the past. This commit only carries out that idea fully for pg_proc, pg_type and pg_conversion, but that's enough for the moment --- if pg_list.h ever becomes unsafe for frontend code to include, we'll need to work a bit more. Zdenek Kotala
* Move the HTSU_Result enum definition into snapshot.h, to avoid includingAlvaro Herrera2008-03-26
| | | | | | tqual.h into heapam.h. This makes all inclusion of tqual.h explicit. I also sorted alphabetically the includes on some source files.
* Simplify and standardize conversions between TEXT datums and ordinary CTom Lane2008-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | strings. This patch introduces four support functions cstring_to_text, cstring_to_text_with_len, text_to_cstring, and text_to_cstring_buffer, and two macros CStringGetTextDatum and TextDatumGetCString. A number of existing macros that provided variants on these themes were removed. Most of the places that need to make such conversions now require just one function or macro call, in place of the multiple notational layers that used to be needed. There are no longer any direct calls of textout or textin, and we got most of the places that were using handmade conversions via memcpy (there may be a few still lurking, though). This commit doesn't make any serious effort to eliminate transient memory leaks caused by detoasting toasted text objects before they reach text_to_cstring. We changed PG_GETARG_TEXT_P to PG_GETARG_TEXT_PP in a few places where it was easy, but much more could be done. Brendan Jurd and Tom Lane

* Ensure that typmod decoration on a datatype name is validated in all cases,Tom Lane2007-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | even in code paths where we don't pay any subsequent attention to the typmod value. This seems needed in view of the fact that 8.3's generalized typmod support will accept a lot of bogus syntax, such as "timestamp(foo)" or "record(int, 42)" --- if we allow such things to pass without comment, users will get confused. Per a recent example from Greg Stark. To implement this in a way that's not very vulnerable to future bugs-of-omission, refactor the API of parse_type.c's TypeName lookup routines so that typmod validation is folded into the base lookup operation. Callers can still choose not to receive the encoded typmod, but we'll check the decoration anyway if it's present.
* Support SET FROM CURRENT in CREATE/ALTER FUNCTION, ALTER DATABASE, ALTER ROLE.Tom Lane2007-09-03
| | | | | | | (Actually, it works as a plain statement too, but I didn't document that because it seems a bit useless.) Unify VariableResetStmt with VariableSetStmt, and clean up some ancient cruft in the representation of same.
* Implement function-local GUC parameter settings, as per recent discussion.Tom Lane2007-09-03
| | | | | | | There are still some loose ends: I didn't do anything about the SET FROM CURRENT idea yet, and it's not real clear whether we are happy with the interaction of SET LOCAL with function-local settings. The documentation is a bit spartan, too.
* Support enum data types. Along the way, use macros for the values ofTom Lane2007-04-02
| | | | | pg_type.typtype whereever practical. Tom Dunstan, with some kibitzing from Tom Lane.
* Add COST and ROWS options to CREATE/ALTER FUNCTION, plus underlying pg_procTom Lane2007-01-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | columns procost and prorows, to allow simple user adjustment of the estimated cost of a function call, as well as control of the estimated number of rows returned by a set-returning function. We might eventually wish to extend this to allow function-specific estimation routines, but there seems to be consensus that we should try a simple constant estimate first. In particular this provides a relatively simple way to control the order in which different WHERE clauses are applied in a plan node, which is a Good Thing in view of the fact that the recent EquivalenceClass planner rewrite made that much less predictable than before.

* Support the syntaxTom Lane2006-04-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | CREATE AGGREGATE aggname (input_type) (parameter_list) along with the old syntax where the input type was named in the parameter list. This fits more naturally with the way that the aggregate is identified in DROP AGGREGATE and other utility commands; furthermore it has a natural extension to handle multiple-input aggregates, where the basetype-parameter method would get ugly. In fact, this commit fixes the grammar and all the utility commands to support multiple-input aggregates; but DefineAggregate rejects it because the executor isn't fixed yet. I didn't do anything about treating agg(*) as a zero-input aggregate instead of artificially making it a one-input aggregate, but that should be considered in combination with supporting multi-input aggregates.
* Improve parser so that we can show an error cursor position for errorsTom Lane2006-03-14
| | | | | | | | | | | during parse analysis, not only errors detected in the flex/bison stages. This is per my earlier proposal. This commit includes all the basic infrastructure, but locations are only tracked and reported for errors involving column references, function calls, and operators. More could be done later but this seems like a good set to start with. I've also moved the ReportSyntaxErrorPosition logic out of psql and into libpq, which should make it available to more people --- even within psql this is an improvement because warnings weren't handled by ReportSyntaxErrorPosition.

* Clean up CREATE FUNCTION syntax usage in contrib and elsewhere, inPeter Eisentraut2006-02-27
| | | | | particular get rid of single quotes around language names and old WITH () construct.
* Implement DROP OWNED and REASSIGN OWNED. These new commands facilitate theAlvaro Herrera2005-11-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | process of dropping roles by dropping objects owned by them and privileges granted to them, or giving the owned objects to someone else, through the use of the data stored in the new pg_shdepend catalog. Some refactoring of the GRANT/REVOKE code was needed, as well as ALTER OWNER code. Further cleanup of code duplication in the GRANT code seems necessary. Implemented by me after an idea from Tom Lane, who also provided various kind of implementation advice. Regression tests pass. Some tests for the new functionality are also added, as well as rudimentary documentation.
