until Bind is received, so that actual parameter values are visible to the
planner. Make use of the parameter values for estimation purposes (but
don't fold them into the actual plan). This buys back most of the
potential loss of plan quality that ensues from using out-of-line
parameters instead of putting literal values right into the query text.
This patch creates a notion of constant-folding expressions 'for
estimation purposes only', in which case we can be more aggressive than
the normal eval_const_expressions() logic can be. Right now the only
difference in behavior is inserting bound values for Params, but it will
be interesting to look at other possibilities. One that we've seen
come up repeatedly is reducing now() and related functions to current
values, so that queries like ... WHERE timestampcol > now() - '1 day'
have some chance of being planned effectively.

extensive change then what was suggested. I found the file path.c that
contained a lot of "Unix/Windows" agnostic functions so I added a function
there instead and removed the PATHSEP declaration in exec.c altogether. All
to keep things from scattering all over the code.
I also took the liberty of changing the name of the functions
"first_path_sep" and "last_path_sep". Where I come from (and I'm apparently
not alone given the former macro name PATHSEP), they should be called
"first_dir_sep" and "last_dir_sep". The new function I introduced, that
actually finds path separators, is now the "first_path_sep". The patch
contains changes on all affected places of course.
I also changed the documentation on dynamic_library_path to reflect the
chagnes.

As a side effect, cause subscripts in INSERT targetlists to do something
more or less sensible; previously we evaluated such subscripts and then
effectively ignored them. Another side effect is that UPDATE-ing an
element or slice of an array value that is NULL now produces a non-null
result, namely an array containing just the assigned-to positions.

of a composite type to get that type's OID as their second parameter,
in place of typelem which is useless. The actual changes are mostly
centralized in getTypeInputInfo and siblings, but I had to fix a few
places that were fetching pg_type.typelem for themselves instead of
using the lsyscache.c routines. Also, I renamed all the related variables
from 'typelem' to 'typioparam' to discourage people from assuming that
they necessarily contain array element types.

environment variable processing to libpq.
The patch also adds code to our client apps so we set the environment
variable directly based on our binary location, unless it is already
set. This will allow our applications to emit proper locale messages
that are generated in libpq.

Specifically, point out that intersecting points in a path will yield
(most likely), unexpected results. Visually these are identical paths,
but mathematically they're not the same. Ex:
area | plan
------
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------
-0 | ((0,0),(0,1),(2,1),(2,2),(1,2),(1,0),(0,0))
2 | ((0,0),(0,1),(1,1),(1,2),(2,2),(2,1),(1,1),(1,0),(0,0))
The current algorithm for area(PATH) is very quick, but only handles
non-intersecting paths. I'm going to work on two other functions for
the PATH data type that determines if a PATH is intersecting or not,
and a function that returns the area() for an intersecting PATH. The
intersecting area() function will be considerably slower (I think it's
going to be O(n!) or worse instead of the current O(n), but that comes
with the territory).

of bug report #1150. Also, arrange that the object owner's irrevocable
grant-option permissions are handled implicitly by the system rather than
being listed in the ACL as self-granted rights (which was wrong anyway).
I did not take the further step of showing these permissions in an
explicit 'granted by _SYSTEM' ACL entry, as that seemed more likely to
bollix up existing clients than to do anything really useful. It's still
a possible future direction, though.

the four functions.

patch-tmp-schema.txt contains the following bits:
*) Changes pg_namespace_aclmask() so that the superuser is always able
to create objects in the temp namespace.
*) Changes pg_namespace_aclmask() so that if this is a temp namespace,
objects are only allowed to be created in the temp namespace if the
user has TEMP privs on the database. This encompasses all object
creation, not just TEMP tables.
*) InitTempTableNamespace() checks to see if the current user, not the
session user, has access to create a temp namespace.
The first two changes are necessary to support the third change. Now
it's possible to revoke all temp table privs from non-super users and
limiting all creation of temp tables/schemas via a function that's
executed with elevated privs (security definer). Before this change,
it was not possible to have a setuid function to create a temp
table/schema if the session user had no TEMP privs.
patch-area-path.txt contains:
*) Can now determine the area of a closed path.
patch-dfmgr.txt contains:
*) Small tweak to add the library path that's being expanded.
I was using $lib/foo.so and couldn't easily figure out what the error
message, "invalid macro name in dynamic library path" meant without
looking through the source code. With the path in there, at least I
know where to start looking in my config file.

(1) boolean-and and boolean-or aggregates named bool_and and bool_or.
they (SHOULD;-) correspond to standard sql every and some/any aggregates.
they do not have the right name as there is a problem with
the standard and the parser for some/any. Tom also think that
the standard name is misleading because NULL are ignored.
Also add 'every' aggregate.
(2) bitwise integer aggregates named bit_and and bit_or for
int2, int4, int8 and bit types. They are not standard, but I find
them useful. I needed them once.
The patches adds:
- 2 new very short strict functions for boolean aggregates in
src/backed/utils/adt/bool.c,
src/include/utils/builtins.h and src/include/catalog/pg_proc.h
- the new aggregates declared in src/include/catalog/pg_proc.h and
src/include/catalog/pg_aggregate.h
- some documentation and validation about these new aggregates.

extend the GUC variable set".
Plugin modules like the pl<lang> modules needs a way to declare
configuration parameters. The postmaster has no knowledge of such
modules when it reads the postgresql.conf file. Rather than allowing
totally unknown configuration parameters, the concept of a variable
"class" is introduced. Variables that belongs to a declared classes will
create a placeholder value of string type and will not generate an
error. When a module is loaded, it will declare variables for such a
class and make those variables "consume" any placeholders that has been
defined. Finally, the module will generate warnings for unrecognized
placeholders defined for its class.
More detail:
The design is outlined after the suggestions made by Tom Lane and Joe
Conway in this thread:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2004-02/msg00229.php
A new string variable 'custom_variable_classes' is introduced. This
variable is a comma separated string of identifiers. Each identifier
denots a 'class' that will allow its members to be added without error.
This variable must be defined in postmaster.conf.
The lexer (guc_file.l) is changed so that it can accept a qualified name
in the form <ID>.<ID> as the name of a variable. I also changed so that
the 'custom_variable_classes', if found, is added first of all variables
in order to remove the order of declaration issue.
The guc_variables table is made more dynamic. It is originally created
with 20% slack and can grow dynamically. A capacity is introduced to
avoid resizing every time a new variable is added. guc_variables and
num_guc_variables becomes static (hidden).
The GucInfoMain now uses the new function get_guc_variables() and
GetNumConfigOptions instead or using the guc_variables directly.
The find_option() function, when passed a missing name, will check if
the name is qualified. If the name is qualified and if the qualifier
denotes a class included in the 'custom_variable_classes', a placeholder
variable will be created. Such a placeholder will not participate in a
list operation but will otherwise function as a normal string variable.
Define<type>GucVariable() functions will be added, one for each variable
type. They are inteded to be used by add-on modules like the pl<lang>
mappings. Example:
extern void DefineCustomBoolVariable(
const char* name,
const char* short_desc,
const char* long_desc,
bool* valueAddr,
GucContext context,
GucBoolAssignHook assign_hook,
GucShowHook show_hook);
(I created typedefs for the assign-hook and show-hook functions). A call
to these functions will define a new GUC-variable. If a placeholder
exists it will be replaced but it's value will be used in place of the
default value. The valueAddr is assumed ot point at a default value when
the define function is called. The only constraint that is imposed on a
Custom variable is that its name is qualified.
Finally, a function:
void EmittWarningsOnPlacholders(const char* className)
was added. This function should be called when a module has completed
its variable definitions. At that time, no placeholders should remain
for the class that the module uses. If they do, elog(INFO, ...) messages
will be issued to inform the user that unrecognized variables are
present.

It was necessary to touch in grammar and create a new node to make home
to the new syntax. The command is also supported in E
CPG. Doc updates are attached too. Only superusers can change the owner
of the database. New owners don't need any aditional
privileges.

a variant of the function for the 'numeric' datatype; it would be possible
to add additional variants for other datatypes, but I haven't done so yet.
This commit includes regression tests and minimal documentation; if we
want developers to actually use this function in applications, we'll
probably need to document what it does more fully.
