* Restructure pg_opclass, pg_amop, and pg_amproc per previous discussions inTom Lane2001-08-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pgsql-hackers. pg_opclass now has a row for each opclass supported by each index AM, not a row for each opclass name. This allows pg_opclass to show directly whether an AM supports an opclass, and furthermore makes it possible to store additional information about an opclass that might be AM-dependent. pg_opclass and pg_amop now store "lossy" and "haskeytype" information that we previously expected the user to remember to provide in CREATE INDEX commands. Lossiness is no longer an index-level property, but is associated with the use of a particular operator in a particular index opclass. Along the way, IndexSupportInitialize now uses the syscaches to retrieve pg_amop and pg_amproc entries. I find this reduces backend launch time by about ten percent, at the cost of a couple more special cases in catcache.c's IndexScanOK. Initial work by Oleg Bartunov and Teodor Sigaev, further hacking by Tom Lane. initdb forced.
* 1. null-safe interface to GiSTBruce Momjian2001-08-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | (as proposed in http://fts.postgresql.org/db/mw/msg.html?mid=1028327) 2. support for 'pass-by-value' arguments - to test this we used special opclass for int4 with values in range [0-2^15] More testing will be done after resolving problem with index_formtuple and implementation of B-tree using GiST 3. small patch to contrib modules (seg,cube,rtree_gist,intarray) - mark functions as 'isstrict' where needed.

* Restructure index AM interface for index building and index tuple deletion,Tom Lane2001-07-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | per previous discussion on pghackers. Most of the duplicate code in different AMs' ambuild routines has been moved out to a common routine in index.c; this means that all index types now do the right things about inserting recently-dead tuples, etc. (I also removed support for EXTEND INDEX in the ambuild routines, since that's about to go away anyway, and it cluttered the code a lot.) The retail indextuple deletion routines have been replaced by a "bulk delete" routine in which the indexscan is inside the access method. I haven't pushed this change as far as it should go yet, but it should allow considerable simplification of the internal bookkeeping for deletions. Also, add flag columns to pg_am to eliminate various hardcoded tests on AM OIDs, and remove unused pg_am columns. Fix rtree and gist index types to not attempt to store NULLs; before this, gist usually crashed, while rtree managed not to crash but computed wacko bounding boxes for NULL entries (which might have had something to do with the performance problems we've heard about occasionally). Add AtEOXact routines to hash, rtree, and gist, all of which have static state that needs to be reset after an error. We discovered this need long ago for btree, but missed the other guys. Oh, one more thing: concurrent VACUUM is now the default.

* Cleanup of code for creating index entries. Functional indexes withTom Lane2000-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | pass-by-ref data types --- eg, an index on lower(textfield) --- no longer leak memory during index creation or update. Clean up a lot of redundant code ... did you know that copy, vacuum, truncate, reindex, extend index, and bootstrap each basically duplicated the main executor's logic for extracting information about an index and preparing index entries? Functional indexes should be a little faster now too, due to removal of repeated function lookups. CREATE INDEX 'opt_type' clause is deimplemented by these changes, but I haven't removed it from the parser yet (need to merge with Thomas' latest change set first).

| | | | | | | | | Patch by: wieck@sapserv.debis.de (Jan Wieck) One of the design rules of PostgreSQL is extensibility. And to follow this rule means (at least for me) that there should not only be a builtin PL. Instead I would prefer a defined interface for PL implemetations.

* Commit of a *MAJOR* patch from Dan McGuirk <djm@indirect.com>Marc G. Fournier1996-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Changes: * Unique index capability works using the syntax 'create unique index'. * Duplicate OID's in the system tables are removed. I put little scripts called 'duplicate_oids' and 'find_oid' in include/catalog that help to find and remove duplicate OID's. I also moved 'unused_oids' from backend/catalog to include/catalog, since it has to be in the same directory as the include files in order to work. * The backend tries converting the name of a function or aggregate to all lowercase if the original name given doesn't work (mostly for compatibility with ODBC). * You can 'SELECT NULL' to your heart's content. * I put my _bt_updateitem fix in instead, which uses _bt_insertonpg so that even if the new key is so big that the page has to be split, everything still works. * All literal references to system catalog OID's have been replaced with references to define'd constants from the catalog header files. * I added a couple of node copy functions. I think this was a preliminary attempt to get rules to work.
* All external function definitions now have prototypes that are checked.Bruce Momjian1996-11-10
