2014-05-06pgindent run for 9.4Bruce Momjian
This includes removing tabs after periods in C comments, which was applied to back branches, so this change should not effect backpatching.

2012-10-08Fix lo_import and lo_export to return useful error messages more often.Tom Lane
I found that these functions tend to return -1 while leaving an empty error message string in the PGconn, if they suffer some kind of I/O error on the file. The reason is that lo_close, which thinks it's executed a perfectly fine SQL command, clears the errorMessage. The minimum-change workaround is to reorder operations here so that we don't fill the errorMessage until after lo_close.
2012-10-08Fix lo_read, lo_write, lo_truncate to cope with "size_t" length parameters.Tom Lane
libpq defines these functions as accepting "size_t" lengths ... but the underlying backend functions expect signed int32 length parameters, and so will misinterpret any value exceeding INT_MAX. Fix the libpq side to throw error rather than possibly doing something unexpected. This is a bug of long standing, but I doubt it's worth back-patching. The problem is really pretty academic anyway with lo_read/lo_write, since any caller expecting sane behavior would have to have provided a multi-gigabyte buffer. It's slightly more pressing with lo_truncate, but still we haven't supported large objects over 2GB until now.
2012-10-08Code review for 64-bit-large-object patch.Tom Lane
Fix broken-on-bigendian-machines byte-swapping functions, add missed update of alternate regression expected file, improve error reporting, remove some unnecessary code, sync testlo64.c with current testlo.c (it seems to have been cloned from a very old copy of that), assorted cosmetic improvements.
2012-10-07Autoconfiscate selection of 64-bit int type for 64-bit large object API.Tom Lane
Get rid of the fundamentally indefensible assumption that "long long int" exists and is exactly 64 bits wide on every platform Postgres runs on. Instead let the configure script select the type to use for "pg_int64". This is a bit of a pain in the rear since we do not want to pollute client namespace with all the random symbols that pg_config.h defines; instead we have to create a separate generated header file, "pg_config_ext.h". But now that the infrastructure is there, we might have the ability to add some other stuff that's long been wanting in this area.
2012-10-07Fix compiling errors on Windows platform. Fix wrong usage ofTatsuo Ishii
INT64CONST macro. Fix lo_hton64 and lo_ntoh64 not to use int32_t and uint32_t.
2012-10-07Add API for 64-bit large object access. Now users can access up toTatsuo Ishii
4TB large objects (standard 8KB BLCKSZ case). For this purpose new libpq API lo_lseek64, lo_tell64 and lo_truncate64 are added. Also corresponding new backend functions lo_lseek64, lo_tell64 and lo_truncate64 are added. inv_api.c is changed to handle 64-bit offsets. Patch contributed by Nozomi Anzai (backend side) and Yugo Nagata (frontend side, docs, regression tests and example program). Reviewed by Kohei Kaigai. Committed by Tatsuo Ishii with minor editings.
2012-08-02Replace libpq's "row processor" API with a "single row" mode.Tom Lane
After taking awhile to digest the row-processor feature that was added to libpq in commit 92785dac2ee7026948962cd61c4cd84a2d052772, we've concluded it is over-complicated and too hard to use. Leave the core infrastructure changes in place (that is, there's still a row processor function inside libpq), but remove the exposed API pieces, and instead provide a "single row" mode switch that causes PQgetResult to return one row at a time in separate PGresult objects. This approach incurs more overhead than proper use of a row processor callback would, since construction of a PGresult per row adds extra cycles. However, it is far easier to use and harder to break. The single-row mode still affords applications the primary benefit that the row processor API was meant to provide, namely not having to accumulate large result sets in memory before processing them. Preliminary testing suggests that we can probably buy back most of the extra cycles by micro-optimizing construction of the extra results, but that task will be left for another day. Marko Kreen
2012-04-04Add a "row processor" API to libpq for better handling of large results.Tom Lane
Traditionally libpq has collected an entire query result before passing it back to the application. That provides a simple and transactional API, but it's pretty inefficient for large result sets. This patch allows the application to process each row on-the-fly instead of accumulating the rows into the PGresult. Error recovery becomes a bit more complex, but often that tradeoff is well worth making. Kyotaro Horiguchi, reviewed by Marko Kreen and Tom Lane

2006-09-07Specify lo_write() to take a _const_ buffer, to match documentation.Bruce Momjian
2006-06-14Further thoughts about lo_export/lo_import error handling: if one ofTom Lane
the lower-level large object functions fails, it will have already set a suitable error message --- probably something from the backend --- and it is not useful to overwrite that with a generic 'error while reading large object' message. So remove redundant messages.

2006-03-05Update copyright for 2006. Update scripts.Bruce Momjian
2006-03-02Remove unnecessary lo_lseek call in lo_open. Apparently there was onceTom Lane
a need for it back in the neolithic era, but it's certainly dead code in any PG release we would recognize as such. Since it forces an additional network round trip to the backend, getting rid of it should provide some small performance improvement for large-object-using clients.
2005-10-15Standard pgindent run for 8.1.Bruce Momjian
2005-06-13Adjust lo_open() so that specifying INV_READ without INV_WRITE createsTom Lane
a descriptor that uses the current transaction snapshot, rather than SnapshotNow as it did before (and still does if INV_WRITE is set). This means pg_dump will now dump a consistent snapshot of large object contents, as it never could do before. Also, add a lo_create() function that is similar to lo_creat() but allows the desired OID of the large object to be specified. This will simplify pg_restore considerably (but I'll fix that in a separate commit).

cases involving writes. Per recent discussion about the possibility of close-time failures on some filesystems. There is a TODO item for this, too.

It works on win2k here too but not on win98/95 or winNT. Anyway, attached is the patch which uses Magnus's my_sock_strerror function (renamed to winsock_strerror). The only difference is that I put the code to load and unload netmsg.dll in the libpqdll.c (is this OK Magnus?). Mikhail Terekhov
