1998-07-09Update regression test run times for v6.4beta.Thomas G. Lockhart
1998-07-09From: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>Marc G. Fournier
Attached are diffs (from current cvs sources) to bring libpq.sgml and libpq.3 up to date. It appears that at various times in the past, people have made edits to one or the other of these files but not both. I propagated some changes from each into the other, but I don't think I caught every inconsistency. It'd be real nice if the man pages could be automatically generated from the SGML...
1998-07-09From: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>Marc G. Fournier
Making PQrequestCancel safe to call in a signal handler turned out to be much easier than I feared. So here are the diffs. Some notes: * I modified the postmaster's packet "iodone" callback interface to allow the callback routine to return a continue-or-drop-connection return code; this was necessary to allow the connection to be closed after receiving a Cancel, rather than proceeding to launch a new backend... Being a neatnik, I also made the iodone proc have a typechecked parameter list. * I deleted all code I could find that had to do with OOB. * I made some edits to ensure that all signals mentioned in the code are referred to symbolically not by numbers ("SIGUSR2" not "2"). I think Bruce may have already done at least some of the same edits; I hope that merging these patches is not too painful.
1998-07-08Fix suggestions on file protection for alternate DB locations.Thomas G. Lockhart
1998-07-08Split function and operator User Guide infoThomas G. Lockhart
from datatype.sgml into separate files. Add type conversion information. Format historical release notes.
1998-06-16The attached patch modifies libpgtcl per previous discussion: theBruce Momjian
pg_notifies statement is eliminated, and callbacks defined by pg_listen are instead invoked automatically from the Tcl idle loop whenever a NOTIFY message is received. I have done only cursory testing, so there may be problems still lurking (particularly on non-Unix machines?). But it seems to work. Patch is against today's cvs sources. Note that this will not work with the 6.3.2 release since it depends on the new libpq. The diffs are a bit large so I've gzipped them. A patch to update libpgtcl.sgml is included too. regards, tom lane

Try to generalize the gzip/tar usage for more portability.
1998-05-09Minor markup change.Thomas G. Lockhart
1998-05-06What I've done:Bruce Momjian
1. Rewritten libpq to allow asynchronous clients. 2. Implemented client side of cancel protocol in library, and patched psql.c to send a cancel request upon SIGINT. The backend doesn't notice it yet :-( 3. Implemented 'Z' protocol message addition and renaming of copy in/out start messages. These are implemented conditionally, ie, the client protocol version is checked; so the code should still work with 1.0 clients. 4. Revised protocol and libpq sgml documents (don't have an SGML compiler, though, so there may be some markup glitches here). What remains to be done: 1. Implement addition of atttypmod field to RowDescriptor messages. The client-side code is there but ifdef'd out. I have no idea what to change on the backend side. The field should be sent only if protocol >= 2.0, of course. 2. Implement backend response to cancel requests received as OOB messages. (This prolly need not be conditional on protocol version; just do it if you get SIGURG.) 3. Update libpq.3. (I'm hoping this can be generated mechanically from libpq.sgml... if not, will do it by hand.) Is there any other doco to fix? 4. Update non-libpq interfaces as necessary. I patched libpgtcl so that it would compile, but haven't tested it. Dunno what needs to be done with the other interfaces. Have at it! Tom Lane
