* Merge the Constraint and FkConstraint node types into a single type.Tom Lane2009-07-30
| | | | | | | | | | | This was foreseen to be a good idea long ago, but nobody had got round to doing it. The recent patch for deferred unique constraints made transformConstraintAttrs() ugly enough that I decided it was time. This change will also greatly simplify parsing of deferred CHECK constraints, if anyone ever gets around to implementing that. While at it, add a location field to Constraint, and use that to provide an error cursor for some of the constraint-related error messages.
* Make backend header files C++ safePeter Eisentraut2009-07-16
| | | | | | | | | | | This alters various incidental uses of C++ key words to use other similar identifiers, so that a C++ compiler won't choke outright. You still (probably) need extern "C" { }; around the inclusion of backend headers. based on a patch by Kurt Harriman <harriman@acm.org> Also add a script cpluspluscheck to check for C++ compatibility in the future. As of right now, this passes without error for me.

* Make SubPlan nodes carry the result's typmod as well as datatype OID. This isTom Lane2009-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | for consistency with the (relatively) recent addition of typmod to SubLink. An example of why it's a good idea is to be seen in the recent "failed to locate grouping columns" bug, which wouldn't have happened if a SubPlan exposed the same typmod info as the SubLink it was derived from. This could be back-patched, since it doesn't affect any on-disk data format, but for the moment it doesn't seem necessary to do so.
* Get rid of the rather fuzzily defined FlattenedSubLink node type in favor ofTom Lane2009-02-25
| | | | | | | | | making pull_up_sublinks() construct a full-blown JoinExpr tree representation of IN/EXISTS SubLinks that it is able to convert to semi or anti joins. This makes pull_up_sublinks() a shade more complex, but the gain in semantic clarity is worth it. I still have more to do in this area to address the previously-discussed problems, but this commit in itself fixes at least one bug in HEAD, as shown by added regression test case.

* Support window functions a la SQL:2008.Tom Lane2008-12-28
| | | | Hitoshi Harada, with some kibitzing from Heikki and Tom.
* Add a concept of "placeholder" variables to the planner. These are variablesTom Lane2008-10-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | that represent some expression that we desire to compute below the top level of the plan, and then let that value "bubble up" as though it were a plain Var (ie, a column value). The immediate application is to allow sub-selects to be flattened even when they are below an outer join and have non-nullable output expressions. Formerly we couldn't flatten because such an expression wouldn't properly go to NULL when evaluated above the outer join. Now, we wrap it in a PlaceHolderVar and arrange for the actual evaluation to occur below the outer join. When the resulting Var bubbles up through the join, it will be set to NULL if necessary, yielding the correct results. This fixes a planner limitation that's existed since 7.1. In future we might want to use this mechanism to re-introduce some form of Hellerstein's "expensive functions" optimization, ie place the evaluation of an expensive function at the most suitable point in the plan tree.
* When expanding a whole-row Var into a RowExpr during ResolveNew(), attachTom Lane2008-10-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | the column alias names of the RTE referenced by the Var to the RowExpr. This is needed to allow ruleutils.c to correctly deparse FieldSelect nodes referencing such a construct. Per my recent bug report. Adding a field to RowExpr forces initdb (because of stored rules changes) so this solution is not back-patchable; which is unfortunate because 8.2 and 8.3 have this issue. But it only affects EXPLAIN for some pretty odd corner cases, so we can probably live without a solution for the back branches.
* Implement SQL-standard WITH clauses, including WITH RECURSIVE.Tom Lane2008-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | There are some unimplemented aspects: recursive queries must use UNION ALL (should allow UNION too), and we don't have SEARCH or CYCLE clauses. These might or might not get done for 8.4, but even without them it's a pretty useful feature. There are also a couple of small loose ends and definitional quibbles, which I'll send a memo about to pgsql-hackers shortly. But let's land the patch now so we can get on with other development.

* Add a bunch of new error location reports to parse-analysis error messages.Tom Lane2008-09-01
| | | | | There are still some weak spots around JOIN USING and relation alias lists, but most errors reported within backend/parser/ now have locations.
* Extend the parser location infrastructure to include a location field inTom Lane2008-08-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | most node types used in expression trees (both before and after parse analysis). This allows us to place an error cursor in many situations where we formerly could not, because the information wasn't available beyond the very first level of parse analysis. There's a fair amount of work still to be done to persuade individual ereport() calls to actually include an error location, but this gets the initdb-forcing part of the work out of the way; and the situation is already markedly better than before for complaints about unimplementable implicit casts, such as CASE and UNION constructs with incompatible alternative data types. Per my proposal of a few days ago.
* Move exprType(), exprTypmod(), expression_tree_walker(), and related routinesTom Lane2008-08-25
| | | | | | into nodes/nodeFuncs, so as to reduce wanton cross-subsystem #includes inside the backend. There's probably more that should be done along this line, but this is a start anyway.

* Support expressions of the form 'scalar op ANY (array)' andTom Lane2003-06-29
| | | | | | | | | | 'scalar op ALL (array)', where the operator is applied between the lefthand scalar and each element of the array. The operator must yield boolean; the result of the construct is the OR or AND of the per-element results, respectively. Original coding by Joe Conway, after an idea of Peter's. Rewritten by Tom to keep the implementation strictly separate from subqueries.
* Phase 3 of read-only-plans project: ExecInitExpr now builds expressionTom Lane2002-12-13
| | | | | | | execution state trees, and ExecEvalExpr takes an expression state tree not an expression plan tree. The plan tree is now read-only as far as the executor is concerned. Next step is to begin actually exploiting this property.
* Phase 2 of read-only-plans project: restructure expression-tree nodesTom Lane2002-12-12
| | | | | | | | | so that all executable expression nodes inherit from a common supertype Expr. This is somewhat of an exercise in code purity rather than any real functional advance, but getting rid of the extra Oper or Func node formerly used in each operator or function call should provide at least a little space and speed improvement. initdb forced by changes in stored-rules representation.
