2003-06-25Seems the runtime.sgml and perform.sgml patches combined areBruce Momjian
incompatible. I believe the attached xref meets the intent of the perform.sgml change. -- Rod Taylor <[email protected]>

2003-06-25Create <link> entries for the foreign keys in the system catalogBruce Momjian
chapter. I got tired of hitting the 'up' link, then finding the table in the table of contents, and following it back down. Rod Taylor

Runtime.sgml and dependant files. Josh Berkus
2003-06-24Most of the synopsis areas for DROP commands use "name" as theBruce Momjian
identifier, while some areas do not. The attached converts be below to "name": conversion_name index_name The below have an existing, initdb supplied, entity named "name". As such, it could be confusing for the reader to see that identifier used in the example. domainname typename Rod Taylor
2003-06-24Revert ORDBMS change, per Peter.Bruce Momjian
2003-06-24Alter query.sgml to mention PostgreSQL as an ORDBMS. This falls in lineBruce Momjian
with advocacy and 'portal' websites. Link to createdb / dropdb from the tutorial page about create / dropdb. A pair of notes were asking about more info... Rod Taylor
2003-06-24Small patch to link to the proper place in the "runtime" file,Bruce Momjian
and to add the "schemaname" column to the description of the pg_stats view. Greg Sabino Mullane

2003-06-24 Add ipv6 address parsing support to 'inet' and 'cidr' data types.Bruce Momjian
Regression tests for IPv6 operations added. Documentation updated to document IPv6 bits. Stop treating IPv4 as an "unsigned int" and IPv6 as an array of characters. Instead, always use the array of characters so we can have one function fits all. This makes bitncmp(), addressOK(), and several other functions "just work" on both address families. add family() function which returns integer 4 or 6 for IPv4 or IPv6. (See examples below) Note that to add this new function you will need to dump/initdb/reload or find the correct magic to add the function to the postgresql function catalogs. IPv4 addresses always sort before IPv6. On disk we use AF_INET for IPv4, and AF_INET+1 for IPv6 addresses. This prevents the need for a dump and reload, but lets IPv6 parsing work on machines without AF_INET6. To select all IPv4 addresses from a table: select * from foo where family(addr) = 4 ... Order by and other bits should all work. Michael Graff
2003-06-23Update Russian version of FAQ.Bruce Momjian
2003-06-22Revise hash join and hash aggregation code to use the same datatype-Tom Lane
specific hash functions used by hash indexes, rather than the old not-datatype-aware ComputeHashFunc routine. This makes it safe to do hash joining on several datatypes that previously couldn't use hashing. The sets of datatypes that are hash indexable and hash joinable are now exactly the same, whereas before each had some that weren't in the other.
2003-06-22Fix some index entries.Tom Lane
2003-06-22Adjust chapter ordering in Internals part to something that seems moreTom Lane
reasonable.
2003-06-22Remove a lot of desperately obsolete material (which was all out of sight,Tom Lane
out of mind, because it'd been commented out years ago). Try to bring the remains up to a reasonable level of currency, and give it all approximately the same high level of abstraction.
2003-06-22Bring the libpq example programs into the 21st century.Tom Lane
2003-06-21Update libpq to make new features of FE/BE protocol available toTom Lane
client applications. Some editorial work on libpq.sgml, too.
2003-06-21Fix some markup problems.Tom Lane
2003-06-19Disallow dollar sign in operator names, instead allow it as a non-firstTom Lane
character in identifiers. The first change eliminates the current need to put spaces around parameter references, as in "x<=$2". The second change improves compatibility with Oracle and some other RDBMSes. This was discussed and agreed to back in January, but did not get done.
2003-06-18Change clusterdb and vacuumdb into C programs.Peter Eisentraut
2003-06-17Make FLOAT(p) measure the precision p in bits, not decimal digits, toTom Lane
match the SQL standard. Document FLOAT and FLOAT(p) notations in datatype.sgml. Per recent pghackers discussion.

2003-06-11pg_dump and pg_restore were stripping quotes and downcasing some butTom Lane
not all SQL identifiers taken from command line arguments. We decided years ago that that was a bad idea: identifiers taken from the command line should be treated as literally correct. Remove the inconsistent code that has crept in recently. Also fix pg_dump so that the combination of --schema and --table does what you'd expect, namely dump exactly one table from exactly one schema. Per gripe from Deepak Bhole of Red Hat.

2003-06-06Implement outer-level aggregates to conform to the SQL spec, withTom Lane
extensions to support our historical behavior. An aggregate belongs to the closest query level of any of the variables in its argument, or the current query level if there are no variables (e.g., COUNT(*)). The implementation involves adding an agglevelsup field to Aggref, and treating outer aggregates like outer variables at planning time.
