parameters. With it applied a function like
CREATE FUNCTION getname(oid8, int4) RETURNS name AS
'SELECT typname FROM pg_type WHERE oid = $1[$2]'
LANGUAGE 'sql';
is possible. Mainly I need this to enable array references in
expressions for PL/pgSQL. Complete regression test ran O.K.

Add "timestamp" to list of tokens in keywords.c.
Before, TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE did not actually parser.
Reorder token lists to be more alphabetical.
Remove ARCHIVE keyword which was deprecated in v6.3.

Remove _all_ PARSEDEBUG print statements.

Change DEFAULT NULL to send back a NULL pointer
rather than a string "NULL". This seems to work, where sending
the string led to type conversion problems (and probably the wrong
thing anyway).

Check for a constraint if is_sequence is set and omit making
a UNIQUE index if so, since the primary key will cover that for us.

Fix oper_select_candidate() to work with a single operator argument.
Repair left operator checking for null return from candidate list.

statements:
- the table definition with a default clause referencing the sequence;
- a CREATE SEQUENCE statement;
- a UNIQUE constraint, which expands into a CREATE INDEX statement.
This is not a perfect solution, since the sequence will remain even if
the table is dropped. Also, there is no absolute protection on updating
the sequence column.

rewrite system. Restructure parse_target to make it easier to
understand.

[AC_MSG_RESULT(yes) AC_DEFINE(HAVE_LONG_INT_64)],
this line produces something like:
echo "$ac_t""yes" 1>&6 cat >> confdefs.h <<\EOF
and would append garbage "yes cat" to confdefs.h. Of course the
result confdefs.h is not syntactically correct therefore following
tests using confdefs.h would all fail. To avoid the problem, we
could switch the order of AC_MSG_RESULT and AC_DEFINE (see attached
patch). This happend on my LinuxPPC box.

patch is applied:
Rewrite rules on relation level work fine now.
Event qualifications on insert/update/delete rules work
fine now.
I added the new keyword OLD to reference the CURRENT
tuple. CURRENT will be removed in 6.5.
Update rules can reference NEW and OLD in the rule
qualification and the actions.
Insert/update/delete rules on views can be established to
let them behave like real tables.
For insert/update/delete rules multiple actions are
supported now. The actions can also be surrounded by
parantheses to make psql happy. Multiple actions are
required if update to a view requires updates to multiple
tables.
Regular users are permitted to create/drop rules on
tables they have RULE permissions for
(DefineQueryRewrite() is now able to get around the
access restrictions on pg_rewrite). This enables view
creation for regular users too. This required an extra
boolean parameter to pg_parse_and_plan() that tells to
set skipAcl on all rangetable entries of the resulting
queries. There is a new function
pg_exec_query_acl_override() that could be used by
backend utilities to use this facility.
All rule actions (not only views) inherit the permissions
of the event relations owner. Sample: User A creates
tables T1 and T2, creates rules that log
INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE on T1 in T2 (like in the regression
tests for rules I created) and grants ALL but RULE on T1
to user B. User B can now fully access T1 and the
logging happens in T2. But user B cannot access T2 at
all, only the rule actions can. And due to missing RULE
permissions on T1, user B cannot disable logging.
Rules on the attribute level are disabled (they don't
work properly and since regular users are now permitted
to create rules I decided to disable them).
Rules on select must have exactly one action that is a
select (so select rules must be a view definition).
UPDATE NEW/OLD rules are disabled (still broken, but
triggers can do it).
There are two new system views (pg_rule and pg_view) that
show the definition of the rules or views so the db admin
can see what the users do. They use two new functions
pg_get_ruledef() and pg_get_viewdef() that are builtins.
The functions pg_get_ruledef() and pg_get_viewdef() could
be used to implement rule and view support in pg_dump.
PostgreSQL is now the only database system I know, that
has rewrite rules on the query level. All others (where I
found a rule statement at all) use stored database
procedures or the like (triggers as we call them) for
active rules (as some call them).
Future of the rule system:
The now disabled parts of the rule system (attribute
level, multiple actions on select and update new stuff)
require a complete new rewrite handler from scratch. The
old one is too badly wired up.
After 6.4 I'll start to work on a new rewrite handler,
that fully supports the attribute level rules, multiple
actions on select and update new. This will be available
for 6.5 so we get full rewrite rule capabilities.

if MULTIBYTE is not enabled. So be sure to run initdb.
o these patches are made against the latest source tree (after
Bruce's massive patch, I think) BTW, I noticed that after running
regression, the oid field of pg_type seems disappeared.
regression=> select oid from pg_type; ERROR: attribute
'oid' not found
this happens after the constraints test. This occures with/without
my patches. strange...
o pg_database_mb.h, pg_class_mb.h, pg_attribute_mb.h are no longer
used, and shoud be removed.
o GetDatabaseInfo() in utils/misc/database.c removed (actually in
#ifdef 0). seems nobody uses.

is a working 64-bit-int type available.
In playing around with it on my machine, I found that gcc provides
perfectly fine support for "long long" arithmetic ... but sprintf()
and sscanf(), which are system-supplied, don't work :-(. So the
autoconf test program does a cursory test on them too.
If we find that a lot of systems are like this, it might be worth
the trouble to implement binary<->ASCII conversion of int64 ourselves
rather than relying on sprintf/sscanf to handle the data type.

no longer returns buffer pointer, can be gotten from scan;
descriptor; bootstrap can create multi-key indexes;
pg_procname index now is multi-key index; oidint2, oidint4, oidname
are gone (must be removed from regression tests); use System Cache
rather than sequential scan in many places; heap_modifytuple no
longer takes buffer parameter; remove unused buffer parameter in
a few other functions; oid8 is not index-able; remove some use of
single-character variable names; cleanup Buffer variables usage
and scan descriptor looping; cleaned up allocation and freeing of
tuples; 18k lines of diff;

Hi,
as proposed here comes the first patch for the query rewrite
system.

in constraint clauses.
IN and NOT IN only allow constaints, not subselects.
Jose' Soares' new reference docs pointed out the discrepency.
Updating the docs too...

Attached is a patch for this weekend's work on libpq. I've dealt
with several issues:
