2022-02-18Don't let libpq "event" procs break the state of PGresult objects.Tom Lane
As currently implemented, failure of a PGEVT_RESULTCREATE callback causes the PGresult to be converted to an error result. This is intellectually inconsistent (shouldn't a failing callback likewise prevent creation of the error result? what about side-effects on the behavior seen by other event procs? why does PQfireResultCreateEvents act differently from PQgetResult?), but more importantly it destroys any promises we might wish to make about the behavior of libpq in nontrivial operating modes, such as pipeline mode. For example, it's not possible to promise that PGRES_PIPELINE_SYNC results will be returned if an event callback fails on those. With this definition, expecting applications to behave sanely in the face of possibly-failing callbacks seems like a very big lift. Hence, redefine the result of a callback failure as being simply that that event procedure won't be called any more for this PGresult (which was true already). Event procedures can still signal failure back to the application through out-of-band mechanisms, for example via their passthrough arguments. Similarly, don't let failure of a PGEVT_RESULTCOPY callback prevent PQcopyResult from succeeding. That definition allowed a misbehaving event proc to break single-row mode (our sole internal use of PQcopyResult), and it probably had equally deleterious effects for outside uses.

2017-11-08Change TRUE/FALSE to true/falsePeter Eisentraut
The lower case spellings are C and C++ standard and are used in most parts of the PostgreSQL sources. The upper case spellings are only used in some files/modules. So standardize on the standard spellings. The APIs for ICU, Perl, and Windows define their own TRUE and FALSE, so those are left as is when using those APIs. In code comments, we use the lower-case spelling for the C concepts and keep the upper-case spelling for the SQL concepts. Reviewed-by: Michael Paquier <michael.paquier@gmail.com>

2008-09-19Add a PQfireResultCreateEvents function to allow applications to mimic theTom Lane
sequence of operations that libpq goes through while creating a PGresult. Also, remove ill-considered "const" decoration on parameters passed to event procedures.
2008-09-19Improve the recently-added libpq events code to provide more consistentTom Lane
guarantees about whether event procedures will receive DESTROY events. They no longer need to defend themselves against getting a DESTROY without a successful prior CREATE. Andrew Chernow
2008-09-17Add an "events" system to libpq, whereby applications can get callbacks thatTom Lane
enable them to manage private data associated with PGconns and PGresults. Andrew Chernow and Merlin Moncure
