2007-12-28Improve consistency of error reporting in GUC assign_hook routines. SomeTom Lane
were reporting ERROR for interactive assignments and LOG for other cases, some were saying nothing for non-interactive cases, and a few did yet other things. Make them use a new function GUC_complaint_elevel() to establish a reasonably uniform policy about how to report. There are still a few edge cases such as assign_search_path(), but it's much better than before. Per gripe from Devrim Gunduz and subsequent discussion. As noted by Alvaro, it'd be better to fold these custom messages into the standard "invalid parameter value" complaint from guc.c, perhaps as the DETAIL field. However that will require more redesign than seems prudent for 8.3. This is a relatively safe, low-impact change that we can afford to risk now.
2007-12-27Disallow digits and lower-case ASCII letters as the delimiter in non-CSVTom Lane
COPY. We need a restriction here because when the delimiter occurs as a data character, it is emitted with a backslash, and that will only work as desired if CopyReadAttributesText() will interpret the backslash sequence as representing the second character literally. This is currently untrue for 'b', 'f', 'n', 'r', 't', 'v', 'x', and octal digits. For future-proofing and simplicity of explanation, it seems best to disallow a-z and 0-9. We must also disallow dot, since "\." by itself would look like copy EOF. Note: "\N" is by default the null print string, so N would also cause a problem, but that is already tested for.
2007-12-27Fix ill-advised usage of x?y:z expressions in errmsg() and errhint() calls.Tom Lane
This prevented gettext from recognizing the strings that need to be translated.
2007-12-27Swap the order of testing for control characters and for column delimiter inTom Lane
CopyAttributeOutText(), so that control characters are converted to the C-style escape sequences even if they happen to be equal to the column delimiter (as is true by default for tab, for example). Oversight in my previous patch to restore pre-8.3 behavior of COPY OUT escaping. Per report from Tomas Szepe.

2007-12-21libpq needs pgsleep on win32 because of the changes to port/open.c.Magnus Hagander
2007-12-20On win32, loop when opening files if sharing- och lock-violation errorsMagnus Hagander
occur. Hopefully, this will make it possible to recover from broken antivirus and/or backup software that locks our files.
2007-12-20When given a nonzero column number, pg_get_indexdef() is only supposed toTom Lane
print the index key variable or expression for that column. It was mistakenly printing ASC/DESC/NULLS FIRST/NULLS LAST decoration too --- and not only for the target column, but all columns. Someday we should have an option to extract that info (and the opclass decoration as well) for a single index column ... but today is not that day. Per bug #3829 and subsequent discussion.

proposal by Simon Riggs, though not exactly his patch.
2007-12-18Make path_recv() and poly_recv() reject paths/polygons containing no points.Tom Lane
The zero-point case is sensible so far as the data structure is concerned, so maybe we ought to allow it sometime; but right now the textual input routines for these types don't allow it, and it seems that not all the functions for the types are prepared to cope. Report and patch by Merlin Moncure.

2007-12-12Improve the method of localizing column names and other fixed strings inTom Lane
psql's \d commands and other uses of printQuery(). Previously we would pass these strings through gettext() and then send them to the server as literals in the SQL query. But the code was not set up to handle doubling of quotes in the strings, causing failure if a translation attempted to use the wrong kind of quote marks, as indeed is now the case for (at least) the French translation of \dFp. Another hazard was that gettext() would translate to whatever encoding was implied by the client's LC_CTYPE setting, which might be different from the client_encoding setting, which would probably cause the server to reject the query as mis-encoded. The new arrangement is to send the untranslated ASCII strings to the server, and do the translations inside printQuery() after the query results come back. Per report from Guillaume Lelarge and subsequent discussion.

2007-12-11Make documentation of -W options more accurate and uniform.Tom Lane
2007-12-11Remove the long-deprecated -u option from psql, since it does nothing veryTom Lane
useful and confuses people who think it is the same as -U. (Eventually we might want to re-introduce it as being an alias for -U, but that should not happen until the switch has actually not been there for a few releases.) Likewise in pg_dump and pg_restore. Per gripe from Robert Treat and subsequent discussion.
2007-12-11Extend the format of CSV logs to include the additional information suppliedAlvaro Herrera
with the logged event. CSV logs are now a first-class citizen along plain text logs in that they carry much of the same information. Per complaint from depesz on bug #3799.

2007-12-09Fix up the PQconnectionUsedPassword mess: create a separateTom Lane
PQconnectionNeedsPassword function that tells the right thing for whether to prompt for a password, and improve PQconnectionUsedPassword so that it checks whether the password used by the connection was actually supplied as a connection argument, instead of coming from environment or a password file. Per bug report from Mark Cave-Ayland and subsequent discussion.
2007-12-08Fix mergejoin cost estimation so that we consider the statistical ranges ofTom Lane
the two join variables at both ends: not only trailing rows that need not be scanned because there cannot be a match on the other side, but initial rows that will be scanned without possibly having a match. This allows a more realistic estimate of startup cost to be made, per recent pgsql-performance discussion. In passing, fix a couple of bugs that had crept into mergejoinscansel: it was not quite up to speed for the task of estimating descending-order scans, which is a new requirement in 8.3.

2007-12-03Stamp 8.3beta4.REL8_3_BETA4Tom Lane
2007-12-03Revert COPY OUT to follow the pre-8.3 handling of ASCII control characters,Tom Lane
namely that \r, \n, \t, \b, \f, \v are dumped as those two-character representations rather than a backslash and the literal control character. I had made it do the other to save some code, but this was ill-advised, because dump files in which these characters appear literally are prone to newline mangling. Fortunately, doing it the old way should only cost a few more lines of code, and not slow down the copy loop materially. Per bug #3795 from Lou Duchez.
2007-12-01Code review for LIKE ... INCLUDING INDEXES patch. Fix failure to propagateTom Lane
constraint status of copied indexes (bug #3774), as well as various other small bugs such as failure to pstrdup when needed. Allow INCLUDING INDEXES indexes to be merged with identical declared indexes (perhaps not real useful, but the code is there and having it not apply to LIKE indexes seems pretty unorthogonal). Avoid useless work in generateClonedIndexStmt(). Undo some poorly chosen API changes, and put a couple of routines in modules that seem to be better places for them.
2007-12-01Suppress compiler warnings in recent plperl patch. Avoid uselessly expensiveTom Lane

implicit loading of modules, thereby breaking Safe rules. We compile and call a tiny perl function on trusted interpreter init, after which the problem does not occur.
2007-11-30Avoid incrementing the CommandCounter when CommandCounterIncrement is calledTom Lane
but no database changes have been made since the last CommandCounterIncrement. This should result in a significant improvement in the number of "commands" that can typically be performed within a transaction before hitting the 2^32 CommandId size limit. In particular this buys back (and more) the possible adverse consequences of my previous patch to fix plan caching behavior. The implementation requires tracking whether the current CommandCounter value has been "used" to mark any tuples. CommandCounter values stored into snapshots are presumed not to be used for this purpose. This requires some small executor changes, since the executor used to conflate the curcid of the snapshot it was using with the command ID to mark output tuples with. Separating these concepts allows some small simplifications in executor APIs. Something for the TODO list: look into having CommandCounterIncrement not do AcceptInvalidationMessages. It seems fairly bogus to be doing it there, but exactly where to do it instead isn't clear, and I'm disinclined to mess with asynchronous behavior during late beta.
2007-11-30Repair bug that allowed RevalidateCachedPlan to attempt to rebuild a cachedTom Lane
plan before the effects of DDL executed in an immediately prior SPI operation had been absorbed. Per report from Chris Wood. This patch has an unpleasant side effect of causing the number of CommandCounterIncrement()s done by a typical plpgsql function to approximately double. Amelioration of the consequences of that will be undertaken in a separate patch.
