Make all system indexes unique.
Make all cache loads use system indexes.
Rename *rel to *relid in inheritance tables.
Rename cache names to be clearer.

table defaults or rules: translate them to a function call so that
parse_coerce doesn't reduce them to a date or time constant immediately.
Also, eliminate a lot of redundancy in the expression grammar by
defining a new nonterminal com_expr, which contains all the productions
that can be shared by a_expr and b_expr.

subselects can only appear on the righthand side of a binary operator.
That's still true for quantified predicates like x = ANY (SELECT ...),
but a subselect that delivers a single result can now appear anywhere
in an expression. This is implemented by changing EXPR_SUBLINK sublinks
to represent just the (SELECT ...) expression, without any 'left hand
side' or combining operator --- so they're now more like EXISTS_SUBLINK.
To handle the case of '(x, y, z) = (SELECT ...)', I added a new sublink
type MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK, which acts just like EXPR_SUBLINK used to.
But the grammar will only generate one for a multiple-left-hand-side
row expression.

Better use of RelationGetRelationName.

The following patch extends the COMMENT ON functionality to the
rest of the database objects beyond just tables, columns, and views. The
grammer of the COMMENT ON statement now looks like:
COMMENT ON [
[ DATABASE | INDEX | RULE | SEQUENCE | TABLE | TYPE | VIEW ] <objname>
|
COLUMN <relation>.<attribute> |
AGGREGATE <aggname> <aggtype> |
FUNCTION <funcname> (arg1, arg2, ...) |
OPERATOR <op> (leftoperand_typ rightoperand_typ) |
TRIGGER <triggername> ON relname>

This patch fix a TODO list item.
* require SELECT DISTINCT target list to have all ORDER BY columns
example
ogawa=> select distinct x from t1 order by y;
ERROR: ORDER BY columns must appear in SELECT DISTINCT target list

boundary-condition bug in myinput() which caused flex scanner to fail
on tokens larger than a bufferload. Turns out flex doesn't want null-
terminated input ... and if it gives you a 1-character buffer, you'd
better supply a character, not a null, lest you be thought to be
reporting end of input.

>From the ORACLE 7 SQL Language Reference Manual:
-----------------------------------------------------
COMMENT
Purpose:
To add a comment about a table, view, snapshot, or
column into the data dictionary.
Prerequisites:
The table, view, or snapshot must be in your own
schema
or you must have COMMENT ANY TABLE system privilege.
Syntax:
COMMENT ON [ TABLE table ] |
[ COLUMN table.column] IS 'text'
You can effectively drop a comment from the database
by setting it to the empty string ''.
-----------------------------------------------------
Example:
COMMENT ON TABLE workorders IS
'Maintains base records for workorder information';
COMMENT ON COLUMN workorders.hours IS
'Number of hours the engineer worked on the task';
to drop a comment:
COMMENT ON COLUMN workorders.hours IS '';
The current patch will simply perform the insert into
pg_description, as per the TODO. And, of course, when
the table is dropped, any comments relating to it
or any of its attributes are also dropped. I haven't
looked at the ODBC source yet, but I do know from
an ODBC client standpoint that the standard does
support the notion of table and column comments.
Hopefully the ODBC driver is already fetching these
values from pg_description, but if not, it should be
trivial.
Hope this makes the grade,

mentioned in FROM but not elsewhere in the query: such tables should be
joined over anyway. Aside from being more standards-compliant, this allows
removal of some very ugly hacks for COUNT(*) processing. Also, allow
HAVING clause without aggregate functions, since SQL does. Clean up
CREATE RULE statement-list syntax the same way Bruce just fixed the
main stmtmulti production.
CAUTION: addition of a field to RangeTblEntry nodes breaks stored rules;
you will have to initdb if you have any rules.

expressions in CREATE TABLE. There is no longer an emasculated expression
syntax for these things; it's full a_expr for constraints, and b_expr
for defaults (unfortunately the fact that NOT NULL is a part of the
column constraint syntax causes a shift/reduce conflict if you try a_expr.
Oh well --- at least parenthesized boolean expressions work now). Also,
stored expression for a column default is not pre-coerced to the column
type; we rely on transformInsertStatement to do that when the default is
actually used. This means "f1 datetime default 'now'" behaves the way
people usually expect it to.
BTW, all the support code is now there to implement ALTER TABLE ADD
CONSTRAINT and ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN with a default value. I didn't
actually teach ALTER TABLE to call it, but it wouldn't be much work.

make it call eval_const_expressions() so that it doesn't have to know).

not just C, so that ISCACHABLE attribute can be specified for user-defined
functions. Get rid of ParamString node type, which wasn't actually being
generated by gram.y anymore, even though define.c thought that was what
it was getting. Clean up minor bug in dfmgr.c (premature heap_close).

functions. One problem that I have encountered with the function
manager is that it does not allow the user to define type conversion
functions that convert between user types. For instance if mytype1,
mytype2, and mytype3 are three Postgresql user types, and if I wish to
define Postgresql conversion functions like
I run into problems, because the Postgresql dynamic loader would look
for a single link symbol, mytype3, for both pieces of object code. If
I just change the name of one of the Postgresql functions (to make the
symbols distinct), the automatic type conversion that Postgresql uses,
for example, when matching operators to arguments no longer finds the
type conversion function.
The solution that I propose, and have implemented in the attatched
patch extends the CREATE FUNCTION syntax as follows. In the first case
above I use the link symbol mytype2_to_mytype3 for the link object
that implements the first conversion function, and define the
Postgresql operator with the following syntax
The patch includes changes to the parser to include the altered
syntax, changes to the ProcedureStmt node in nodes/parsenodes.h,
changes to commands/define.c to handle the extra information in the AS
clause, and changes to utils/fmgr/dfmgr.c that alter the way that the
dynamic loader figures out what link symbol to use. I store the
string for the link symbol in the prosrc text attribute of the pg_proc
table which is currently unused in rows that reference dynamically
loaded
functions.

behavior as it was, apart from forbidding minus-terminated
operators. Seems that I have to break the habit of doing before
thinking properly :-/ The point is that my second patch breaks
constructs like a & b or a ! b. This patch is to be applied
instead of any of two other today's patches.

additional argument specifying the kind of lock to acquire/release (or
'NoLock' to do no lock processing). Ensure that all relations are locked
with some appropriate lock level before being examined --- this ensures
that relevant shared-inval messages have been processed and should prevent
problems caused by concurrent VACUUM. Fix several bugs having to do with
mismatched increment/decrement of relation ref count and mismatched
heap_open/close (which amounts to the same thing). A bogus ref count on
a relation doesn't matter much *unless* a SI Inval message happens to
arrive at the wrong time, which is probably why we got away with this
sloppiness for so long. Repair missing grab of AccessExclusiveLock in
DROP TABLE, ALTER/RENAME TABLE, etc, as noted by Hiroshi.
Recommend 'make clean all' after pulling this update; I modified the
Relation struct layout slightly.
Will post further discussion to pghackers list shortly.

which do not need to be so for our parser. Apparently omitted earlier.

Almost worked before, but forgot one place to check.
Reported by Tatsuo Ishii.
Still does not do the right thing if inserting into a non-string target
column. Should look for a type coersion later, but doesn't.

corrects flex myinput() routine so that it doesn't assume there is only
one bufferload of data. We still have the issue of getting rid of
YY_USES_REJECT so that the scanner can cope with tokens larger than its
initial buffer size.

last loop which would return the *first* surviving-to-that-point candidate
regardless of which one actually passed the test. This was producing
such curious results as 'oid % 2' getting translated to 'int2(oid) % 2'.
|

documented intepretation of the lefthand and oper fields. Fix a number of
obscure problems while at it --- for example, the old code failed if the parser
decided to insert a type-coercion function just below the operator of a
SubLink.
CAUTION: this will break stored rules that contain subplans. You may
need to initdb.

constant to a different type. Not sure that this could happen in ordinary
parser usage, but it can in some new code I'm working on...

match then it tried for a self-commutative operator with the reversed input
data types. This is pretty silly; there could never be such an operator,
except maybe in binary-compatible-type scenarios, and we have oper_inexact
for that. Besides which, the oprsanity regress test would complain about
such an operator. Remove nonfunctional code and simplify routine calling
convention accordingly.

and fix_opids processing to a single recursive pass over the plan tree
executed at the very tail end of planning, rather than haphazardly here
and there at different places. Now that tlist Vars do not get modified
until the very end, it's possible to get rid of the klugy var_equal and
match_varid partial-matching routines, and just use plain equal()
throughout the optimizer. This is a step towards allowing merge and
hash joins to be done on expressions instead of only Vars ...
|

sort order down into planner, instead of handling it only at the very top
level of the planner. This fixes many things. An explicit sort is now
avoided if there is a cheaper alternative (typically an indexscan) not
only for ORDER BY, but also for the internal sort of GROUP BY. It works
even when there is no other reason (such as a WHERE condition) to consider
the indexscan. It works for indexes on functions. It works for indexes
on functions, backwards. It's just so cool...
CAUTION: I have changed the representation of SortClause nodes, therefore
THIS UPDATE BREAKS STORED RULES. You will need to initdb.

optimizer rather than parser. This has many advantages, such as not
getting fooled by chance uses of operator names ~ and ~~ (the operators
are identified by OID now), and not creating useless comparison operations
in contexts where the comparisons will not actually be used as indexquals.
The new code also recognizes exact-match LIKE and regex patterns, and
produces an = indexqual instead of >= and <=.
This change does NOT fix the problem with non-ASCII locales: the code
still doesn't know how to generate an upper bound indexqual for non-ASCII
collation order. But it's no worse than before, just the same deficiency
in a different place...
Also, dike out loc_restrictinfo fields in Plan nodes. These were doing
nothing useful in the absence of 'expensive functions' optimization,
and they took a considerable amount of processing to fill in.
