2011-10-12Throw a useful error message if an extension script file is fed to psql.Tom Lane
We have seen one too many reports of people trying to use 9.1 extension files in the old-fashioned way of sourcing them in psql. Not only does that usually not work (due to failure to substitute for MODULE_PATHNAME and/or @extschema@), but if it did work they'd get a collection of loose objects not an extension. To prevent this, insert an \echo ... \quit line that prints a suitable error message into each extension script file, and teach commands/extension.c to ignore lines starting with \echo. That should not only prevent any adverse consequences of loading a script file the wrong way, but make it crystal clear to users that they need to do it differently now. Tom Lane, following an idea of Andrew Dunstan's. Back-patch into 9.1 ... there is not going to be much value in this if we wait till 9.2.

2011-10-12Improve documentation of psql's \q command.Tom Lane
The documentation neglected to explain its behavior in a script file (it only ends execution of the script, not psql as a whole), and failed to mention the long form \quit either.

2011-09-24Note that sslmode=require verifies the CA if root cert is presentMagnus Hagander
This mode still exists for backwards compatibility, making sslmode=require the same as sslmode=verify-ca when the file is present, but not causing an error when it isn't. Per bug 6189, reported by Srinivas Aji

2011-09-06Add an "incompatibility" entry to 9.1 release notes about CREATE EXTENSION.Tom Lane
We've now seen more than one gripe from somebody who didn't get the memo about how to install contrib modules in 9.1. Try to make it a little more prominent that you aren't supposed to call the scripts directly anymore.
2011-09-06Update type-conversion documentation for long-ago changes.Tom Lane
This example wasn't updated when we changed the behavior of bpcharlen() in 8.0, nor when we changed the number of parameters taken by the bpchar() cast function in 7.3. Per report from lsliang.

Noted by Hitoshi Harada.
2011-08-24Fix pgxs.mk to always add --dbname=$(CONTRIB_TESTDB) to REGRESS_OPTS.Tom Lane
The previous coding resulted in contrib modules unintentionally overriding the use of CONTRIB_TESTDB. There seems no particularly good reason to allow that (after all, the makefile can set CONTRIB_TESTDB if that's really what it intends). In passing, document REGRESS_OPTS where the other pgxs.mk options are documented. Back-patch to 9.1 --- in prior versions, there were no cases of contrib modules setting REGRESS_OPTS without including the --dbname switch, so while the coding was fragile there was no actual bug.

2011-08-07Fix a whitespace issue with the man pagesPeter Eisentraut
There is what may actually be a mistake in our markup. The problem is in a situation like <para> <command>FOO</command> is ... there is strictly speaking a line break before "FOO". In the HTML output, this does not appear to be a problem, but in the man page output, this shows up, so you get double blank lines at odd places. So far, we have attempted to work around this with an XSL hack, but that causes other problems, such as creating run-ins in places like <acronym>SQL</acronym> <command>COPY</command> So fix the problem properly by removing the extra whitespace. I only fixed the problems that affect the man page output, not all the places.
