2004-01-23Fix a minor bug introduced by the recent CREATE TABLE AS / WITH OIDSNeil Conway
patch: a 3-value enum was mistakenly assigned directly to a 'bool' in transformCreateStmt(). Along the way, change makeObjectName() to be static, as it isn't used outside analyze.c
2004-01-14Fix permission-checking bug reported by Tim Burgess 10-Feb-03 (this timeTom Lane
for sure...). Rather than relying on the query context of a rangetable entry to identify what permissions it wants checked, store a full AclMode mask in each RTE, and check exactly those bits. This allows an RTE specifying, say, INSERT privilege on a view to be copied into a derived UPDATE query without changing meaning. Per recent discussion thread. initdb forced due to change of stored rule representation.
2003-11-29make sure the $Id tags are converted to $PostgreSQL as well ...PostgreSQL Daemon
2003-08-17Create a 'type cache' that keeps track of the data needed for any particularTom Lane
datatype by array_eq and array_cmp; use this to solve problems with memory leaks in array indexing support. The parser's equality_oper and ordering_oper routines also use the cache. Change the operator search algorithms to look for appropriate btree or hash index opclasses, instead of assuming operators named '<' or '=' have the right semantics. (ORDER BY ASC/DESC now also look at opclasses, instead of assuming '<' and '>' are the right things.) Add several more index opclasses so that there is no regression in functionality for base datatypes. initdb forced due to catalog additions.
2003-08-07create_unique_plan() should not discard existing output columns of theTom Lane
subplan it starts with, as they may be needed at upper join levels. See comments added to code for the non-obvious reason why. Per bug report from Robert Creager.

2003-07-03Do honest transformation and preprocessing of LIMIT/OFFSET clauses,Tom Lane
instead of the former kluge whereby gram.y emitted already-transformed expressions. This is needed so that Params appearing in these clauses actually work correctly. I suppose some might claim that the side effect of 'SELECT ... LIMIT 2+2' working is a new feature, but I say this is a bug fix.
2003-06-16Allow GROUP BY, ORDER BY, DISTINCT targets to be unknown literals,Tom Lane
silently resolving them to type TEXT. This is comparable to what we do when faced with UNKNOWN in CASE, UNION, and other contexts. It gets rid of this and related annoyances: select distinct f1, '' from int4_tbl; ERROR: Unable to identify an ordering operator '<' for type unknown This was discussed many moons ago, but no one got round to fixing it.
2003-06-15Cause GROUP BY clause to adopt ordering operators from ORDER BY whenTom Lane
both clauses specify the same targets, rather than always using the default ordering operator. This allows 'GROUP BY foo ORDER BY foo DESC' to be done with only one sort step.
2003-03-22Adjust subquery qual pushdown rules to be more forgiving: if a qualTom Lane
refers to a non-DISTINCT output column of a DISTINCT ON subquery, or if it refers to a function-returning-set, we cannot push it down. But the old implementation refused to push down *any* quals if the subquery had any such 'dangerous' outputs. Now we just look at the output columns actually referenced by each qual expression. More code than before, but probably no slower since we don't make unnecessary checks.
2002-06-20Update copyright to 2002.Bruce Momjian
2002-03-22A little further progress on schemas: push down RangeVars intoTom Lane
addRangeTableEntry calls. Remove relname field from RTEs, since it will no longer be a useful unique identifier of relations; we want to encourage people to rely on the relation OID instead. Further work on dumping qual expressions in EXPLAIN, too.
2001-11-05New pgindent run with fixes suggested by Tom. Patch manually reviewed,Bruce Momjian
initdb/regression tests pass.
2001-10-28Another pgindent run. Fixes enum indenting, and improves #endifBruce Momjian
spacing. Also adds space for one-line comments.

2001-03-22pgindent run. Make it all clean.Bruce Momjian
2001-02-14Change scoping of table and join refnames to conform to SQL92: a JOINTom Lane
clause with an alias is a <subquery> and therefore hides table references appearing within it, according to the spec. This is the same as the preliminary patch I posted to pgsql-patches yesterday, plus some really grotty code in ruleutils.c to reverse-list a query tree with the correct alias name depending on context. I'd rather not have done that, but unless we want to force another initdb for 7.1, there's no other way for now.

2001-01-05Remove not-really-standard implementation of CREATE TABLE's UNDER clause,Tom Lane
and revert documentation to describe the existing INHERITS clause instead, per recent discussion in pghackers. Also fix implementation of SQL_inheritance SET variable: it is not cool to look at this var during the initial parsing phase, only during parse_analyze(). See recent bug report concerning misinterpretation of date constants just after a SET TIMEZONE command. gram.y really has to be an invariant transformation of the query string to a raw parsetree; anything that can vary with time must be done during parse analysis.
2000-11-08Make DROP TABLE rollback-able: postpone physical file delete until commit.Tom Lane
(WAL logging for this is not done yet, however.) Clean up a number of really crufty things that are no longer needed now that DROP behaves nicely. Make temp table mapper do the right things when drop or rename affecting a temp table is rolled back. Also, remove "relation modified while in use" error check, in favor of locking tables at first reference and holding that lock throughout the statement.
2000-09-12First cut at full support for OUTER JOINs. There are still a few looseTom Lane
ends to clean up (see my message of same date to pghackers), but mostly it works. INITDB REQUIRED!
2000-06-09Inheritance overhaul by Chris Bitmead <chris@bitmead.com>Bruce Momjian
2000-04-12Ye-old pgindent run. Same 4-space tabs.Bruce Momjian
2000-02-15Carry column aliases from the parser frontend. Enables queries likeThomas G. Lockhart
SELECT a FROM t1 tx (a); Allow join syntax, including queries like SELECT * FROM t1 NATURAL JOIN t2; Update RTE structure to hold column aliases in an Attr structure.
2000-01-27Redesign DISTINCT ON as discussed in pgsql-sql 1/25/00: syntax is nowTom Lane
SELECT DISTINCT ON (expr [, expr ...]) targetlist ... and there is a check to make sure that the user didn't specify an ORDER BY that's incompatible with the DISTINCT operation. Reimplement nodeUnique and nodeGroup to use the proper datatype-specific equality function for each column being compared --- they used to do bitwise comparisons or convert the data to text strings and strcmp(). (To add insult to injury, they'd look up the conversion functions once for each tuple...) Parse/plan representation of DISTINCT is now a list of SortClause nodes. initdb forced by querytree change...

1999-08-21Major revision of sort-node handling: push knowledge of queryTom Lane
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.
1999-07-19Rewrite parser's handling of INSERT ... SELECT so that processingTom Lane
of the SELECT part of the statement is just like a plain SELECT. All INSERT-specific processing happens after the SELECT parsing is done. This eliminates many problems, e.g. INSERT ... SELECT ... GROUP BY using the wrong column labels. Ensure that DEFAULT clauses are coerced to the target column type, whether or not stored clause produces the right type. Substantial cleanup of parser's array support.
