Somebody added a cross-reference to shared_preload_libraries, but wrote the
wrong variable name when they did it (and didn't bother to make it a link
either).

Also change "switch" to "arg" because "switch" is a bit of a sloppy
term. So the environment variable is called
PSQL_EDITOR_LINENUMBER_ARG. Set "+" as hardcoded default value on
Unix (since "vi" is the hardcoded default editor), so many users won't
have to configure this at all. Move the documentation around a bit to
centralize the editor configuration under environment variables,
rather than repeating bits of it under every backslash command that
invokes an editor.

corrections by me.

This is a bit more consistent with the way pg_description is
documented, and also include a useful cross-link.

We have a few people involved there now.

This function supports untranslated detail messages, in the same way that
errmsg_internal supports untranslated primary messages. We've needed this
for some time IMO, but discussion of some cases in the SSI code provided
the impetus to actually add it.

In the example for decode(), show the bytea result in hex format,
since that's now the default. Use an E'' string in the example for
quote_literal(), so that it works regardless of the
standard_conforming_strings setting. On the functions-for-binary-strings
page, leave the examples as-is for readability, but add a note pointing out
that they are shown in escape format. Per comments from Thom Brown.
Also, improve the description for encode() and decode() a tad.
Backpatch to 9.0, where bytea_output was introduced.

Per discussion, this structure seems more understandable than what was
there before. Make config.sgml and postgresql.conf.sample agree.
In passing do a bit of editorial work on the variable descriptions.
|

Previous patch only covered the ALTER TABLE changes, not changes in other
commands; and it neglected to revert the documentation changes.
|

As noted by Laurenz Albe, our SGML tools deal rather oddly with chapters
having just one <sect1>. Perhaps the tooling could be fixed, but really
the design of this chapter's introduction is pretty bogus anyhow. Split
it into a true introduction and a <sect1> about the FDW functions, so
that it reads better and dodges the lack-of-a-chapter-TOC problem.

Locks on inheritance parent remain at lower level, as they were before.
Remove entry from 9.1 release notes.

Somehow, column rolconfig got removed from the documentation of the
pg_roles view in the 9.0 cycle, although the column is actually still
there. In 9.1, we'd also forgotten to document the rolreplication column.

Explain that querying pg_locks does not simultaneously lock both the
normal lock manager and the predicate lock manager.

Also be more careful about markup: use & not just &.

The release notes may contain non-ASCII characters (for contributor
names), which lynx converts to the encoding determined by the current
locale. The get output that is deterministic and easily readable by
everyone, we make lynx produce LATIN1 and then convert that to ASCII
with transliteration for the non-ASCII characters.

This is a dangerous example to provide because on machines with GNU cp,
it will silently do the wrong thing and risk archive corruption. Worse,
during the 9.0 cycle somebody "improved" the discussion by removing the
warning that used to be there about that, and instead leaving the
impression that the command would work as desired on most Unixen.
It doesn't. Try to rectify the damage by providing an example that is safe
most everywhere, and then noting that you can try cp -i if you want but
you'd better test that.
In back-patching this to all supported branches, I also added an example
command for Windows, which wasn't provided before 9.0.

The initial commit of the ALTER TABLE ADD FOREIGN KEY NOT VALID feature
failed to support labeling such constraints as deferrable. The best fix
for this seems to be to fold NOT VALID into ConstraintAttributeSpec.
That's a bit more general than the documented syntax, but it allows
better-targeted syntax error messages.
In addition, do some mostly-but-not-entirely-cosmetic code review for
the whole NOT VALID patch.

This has always been true, it was just never documented.

"must".
|
|
The previous wording wasn't explicit enough, which could misled readers
into thinking that the locks acquired are more restricted in nature than
they really are. The resulting optimism can be damaging to morale when
confronted with reality, as has been observed in the field.

This is more consistent with what we do elsewhere, and hopefully avoids
creating the perception that current_schemas takes no arguments.
