CopyFileEx. This avoids a warning about the function not being

timezone actually has a daylight-savings rule. This avoids breaking
cases that used to work because they went through the DecodePosixTimezone
code path. Per contrib regression failures (mea culpa for not running
those yesterday...). Also document the already-applied change to allow
GMT offsets up to 14 hours.

example SET TIME ZONE 'america/new_york' works now. This seems a good
idea on general user-friendliness grounds, and is part of the solution
to the timestamp-input parsing problems I noted recently.

configuration files that can be altered by a DBA. The australian_timezones
GUC setting disappears, replaced by a timezone_abbreviations setting (set this
to 'Australia' to get the effect of australian_timezones). The list of zone
names defined by default has undergone a bit of cleanup, too. Documentation
still needs some work --- in particular, should we fix Table B-4, or just get
rid of it? Joachim Wieland, with some editorializing by moi.

comment line where output as too long, and update typedefs for /lib

in the backend, but as typedefs in ecpg (favor the backend for
indenting).
Backpatch to 8.1.X.

in the zic database or zone names found in the date token table. This
preserves the old ability to do AT TIME ZONE 'PST' along with the new
ability to do AT TIME ZONE 'PST8PDT'. Per gripe from Bricklen Anderson.
Also, fix some inconsistencies in usage of TZ_STRLEN_MAX --- the old
code had the potential for one-byte buffer overruns, though given
alignment considerations it's unlikely there was any real risk.

This gets rid of rather tedious and error-prone manipulation of errno,
as well as a Windows-specific bug workaround, at more than a dozen
call sites. After an idea in a recent patch by Heikki Linnakangas.

"AT TIME ZONE", and not just the shorlist previously available. For
example:
SELECT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP AT TIME ZONE 'Europe/London';
works fine now. It will also obey whatever DST rules were in effect at
just that date, which the previous implementation did not.
It also supports the AT TIME ZONE on the timetz datatype. The whole
handling of DST is a bit bogus there, so I chose to make it use whatever
DST rules are in effect at the time of executig the query. not sure if
anybody is actuallyi *using* timetz though, it seems pretty
unpredictable just because of this...

Here's a patch doing this. Changes score_timezone not to use pg_tzset(),
and thus not loading all the zones in the cache. The actual timezone
being picked will be set using set_global_timezone() which in turn calls
pg_tzset() and loads it in the cache.

spotted by Qingqing Zhou. The HASH_ENTER action now automatically
fails with elog(ERROR) on out-of-memory --- which incidentally lets
us eliminate duplicate error checks in quite a bunch of places. If
you really need the old return-NULL-on-out-of-memory behavior, you
can ask for HASH_ENTER_NULL. But there is now an Assert in that path
checking that you aren't hoping to get that behavior in a palloc-based
hash table.
Along the way, remove the old HASH_FIND_SAVE/HASH_REMOVE_SAVED actions,
which were not being used anywhere anymore, and were surely too ugly
and unsafe to want to see revived again.

* Changes the APIs to the timezone functions to take a pg_tz pointer as
an argument, representing the timezone to use for the selected
operation.
* Adds a global_timezone variable that represents the current timezone
in the backend as set by SET TIMEZONE (or guc, or env, etc).
* Implements a hash-table cache of loaded tables, so we don't have to
read and parse the TZ file everytime we change a timezone. While not
necesasry now (we don't change timezones very often), I beleive this
will be necessary (or at least good) when "multiple timezones in the
same query" is eventually implemented. And code-wise, this was the time
to do it.
There are no user-visible changes at this time. Implementing the
"multiple zones in one query" is a later step...
This also gets rid of some of the cruft needed to "back out a timezone
change", since we previously couldn't check a timezone unless it was
activated first.
Passes regression tests on win32, linux (slackware 10) and solaris x86.

Also performed an initial run through of upgrading our Copyright date to
extend to 2005 ... first run here was very simple ... change everything
where: grep 1996-2004 && the word 'Copyright' ... scanned through the
generated list with 'less' first, and after, to make sure that I only
picked up the right entries ...

use it, as per my proposal of yesterday. This gives us a means of
determining the zone offset to impute to an unlabeled timestamp that
is both efficient and reliable, unlike all our previous tries involving
mktime() and localtime(). The behavior for invalid or ambiguous times
at a DST transition is fixed to be really and truly "assume standard
time", fixing a bug that has come and gone repeatedly but was back
again in 7.4. (There is some ongoing discussion about whether we should
raise an error instead, but for the moment I'll make it do what it was
previously intended to do.)

Windows.
Recap: When running on a localized windows version, the timezone name
returned is also localized, and therefor does not match our lookup
table.
Solution: The registry contains both the name of the timezone in english
and the localized name. The patch adds code to scan the registry for the
localized name and gets the english name from that, and then rescans the
table.
I have tested this on a Swedish WinXP, and it works without problems.
The registry layout is the same in Win2k, but I haven't specifically
tested it. It's also the same on different languages but again only
Swedish is tested.
