This is to see if it will stop intermittent build failures on buildfarm
member okapi. We know that gmake 3.82 has some problems with sometimes
not honoring dependencies in parallel builds, and it seems likely that
this is more of the same. Since the vast bulk of the work in the preproc
directory is associated with creating preproc.c and then preproc.o,
parallelism buys us hardly anything here anyway.
Also, make both this .NOTPARALLEL and the one previously added in
interfaces/ecpg/Makefile be conditional on "ifeq ($(MAKE_VERSION),3.82)".
The known bug in gmake is fixed upstream and should not be present in
3.83 and up, and there's no reason to think it affects older releases.
Numerous flex and bison make rules have appeared in the source tree
over time, and they are all virtually identical, so we can replace
them by pattern rules with some variables for customization.
Users of pgxs will also be able to benefit from this.
This patch implements the standard syntax of LATERAL attached to a
sub-SELECT in FROM, and also allows LATERAL attached to a function in FROM,
since set-returning function calls are expected to be one of the principal
use-cases.
The main change here is a rewrite of the mechanism for keeping track of
which relations are visible for column references while the FROM clause is
being scanned. The parser "namespace" lists are no longer lists of bare
RTEs, but are lists of ParseNamespaceItem structs, which carry an RTE
pointer as well as some visibility-controlling flags. Aside from
supporting LATERAL correctly, this lets us get rid of the ancient hacks
that required rechecking subqueries and JOIN/ON and function-in-FROM
expressions for invalid references after they were initially parsed.
Invalid column references are now always correctly detected on sight.
In passing, remove assorted parser error checks that are now dead code by
virtue of our having gotten rid of add_missing_from, as well as some
comments that are obsolete for the same reason. (It was mainly
add_missing_from that caused so much fudging here in the first place.)
The planner support for this feature is very minimal, and will be improved
in future patches. It works well enough for testing purposes, though.
catversion bump forced due to new field in RangeTblEntry.
Before, some places didn't document the short options (-? and -V),
some documented both, some documented nothing, and they were listed in
various orders. Now this is hopefully more consistent and complete.
This includes fixing the MSVC copy of ecpg/preproc's version info, which
seems to have been overlooked repeatedly. Can't we fix that so there are
not two copies??
ecpg and pg_dump each contain keyword arrays with structure similar
to the backend's keyword array. Up to now, we actually named those
arrays the same as the backend's and relied on parser/keywords.h
to declare them. This seems a tad too cute, though, and it breaks
now that we need to PGDLLIMPORT-decorate the backend symbols.
Rename to avoid the problem. Per buildfarm.
(It strikes me that maybe we should get rid of the separate keywords.c
files altogether, and just define these arrays in the modules that use
them, but that's a rather more invasive change.)
Ever since we introduced real prepared statements this should work for
different connections. The old solution just emulating prepared statements,
though, wasn't able to handle this.
Closes: #6309
The --flag argument can be used to tell xgettext the arguments of
which functions should be flagged with c-format in the PO files,
instead of guessing based on the presence of format specifiers, which
fails if no format specifiers are present but the translation
accidentally introduces one.
Appropriate flag settings have been added for each message catalog.
based on a patch by Christoph Berg for bug #6066
It currently doesn't make a difference, but it's inconsistent with
most other usage, and it might interfere with a future patch, so I'll
change it all in a separate commit.
Also, replace tabs with spaces for alignment.
The initial commit of the ALTER TABLE ADD FOREIGN KEY NOT VALID feature
failed to support labeling such constraints as deferrable. The best fix
for this seems to be to fold NOT VALID into ConstraintAttributeSpec.
That's a bit more general than the documented syntax, but it allows
better-targeted syntax error messages.
In addition, do some mostly-but-not-entirely-cosmetic code review for
the whole NOT VALID patch.
The style is set to "printf" for backwards compatibility everywhere except
on Windows, where it is set to "gnu_printf", which eliminates hundreds of
false error messages from modern versions of gcc arising from %m and %ll{d,u}
formats.
variable hiding. A constant is not a variable. It worked in most cases by
accident, because we add constants to the global list of variables (why?),
but float constants like 1.23 were interpreted as struct field references,
and not found.
Backpatch to 9.0, where the test for variable hiding was added.
string". This is not really needed because the string gets copied to the output
untranslated anyway, but by adding this rule the lexer stays in sync with the
backend lexer.
Replace for loops in makefiles with proper dependencies. Parallel
make can now span across directories. Also, make -k and make -q work
properly.
GNU make 3.80 or newer is now required.
Use bool as type for booleans instead of int.
Do not implicitely cast size_t to int.
Make the compiler stop complaining about unused variables by adding an empty statement.
linking both executables and shared libraries, and we add on LDFLAGS_EX when
linking executables or LDFLAGS_SL when linking shared libraries. This
provides a significantly cleaner way of dealing with link-time switches than
the former behavior. Also, make sure that the various platform-specific
%.so: %.o rules incorporate LDFLAGS and LDFLAGS_SL; most of them missed that
before. (I did not add these variables for the platforms that invoke $(LD)
directly, however. It's not clear if we can do that safely, since for the
most part we assume these variables use CC command-line syntax.)
Per gripe from Aaron Swenson and subsequent investigation.
"val AS name" to "name := val", as per recent discussion.
This patch catches everything in the original named-parameters patch,
but I'm not certain that no other dependencies snuck in later (grepping
the source tree for all uses of AS soon proved unworkable).
In passing I note that we've dropped the ball at least once on keeping
ecpg's lexer (as opposed to parser) in sync with the backend. It would
be a good idea to go through all of pgc.l and see if it's in sync now.
I didn't attempt that at the moment.
Informix allows variables as argument to the embedded SQL command FREE. Given
that we only allow freeing cursors via FREE for compatibility reasons only we
should do the same.
commandline option "-i". This change fixes this and adds a test case. It also
honors #include_next, although this is probably never used for embedded SQL.
list, minus a few specific words that have to be treated specially. This
replaces a hard-wired list of keywords that would have needed manual
maintenance, and was not getting it. The 8.4 coding was already missing
these words, causing ecpg to incorrectly treat them as reserved words:
CALLED, CATALOG, DEFINER, ENUM, FOLLOWING, INVOKER, OPTIONS, PARTITION,
PRECEDING, RANGE, SECURITY, SERVER, UNBOUNDED, WRAPPER. In HEAD we were
additionally missing COMMENTS, FUNCTIONS, SEQUENCES, TABLES.
Per gripe from Bosco Rama.
The main motivation for this is that it's required for Informix compatibility
in ECPG.
This patch makes the ECPG and core grammars a bit closer to one another for
these productions.

it works just as well to have them be ordinary identifiers, and this gets rid
of a number of ugly special cases. Plus we aren't interfering with non-rule
usage of these names.
catversion bump because the names change internally in stored rules.
to create a function for it.
Procedural languages now have an additional entry point, namely a function
to execute an inline code block. This seemed a better design than trying
to hide the transient-ness of the code from the PL. As of this patch, only
plpgsql has an inline handler, but probably people will soon write handlers
for the other standard PLs.
In passing, remove the long-dead LANCOMPILER option of CREATE LANGUAGE.

It seems the flex developers have decided to change yyleng from int to size_t.
This has already happened in the latest release of OS X, and will start
happening elsewhere once the next release of flex appears. Rather than trying
to divine how it's declared in any particular build, let's just remove the one
existing not-very-necessary external usage.
Back-patch to all supported branches; not so much because users in the field
are likely to care about building old branches with cutting-edge flex, as
to keep OSX-based buildfarm members from having problems with old branches.
source directory even for out-of-tree builds. They are now alsl built in
the build tree. This should be more convenient for certain developers'
workflows, and shouldn't really break anything else.
Update install-sh to that from Autoconf 2.63, plus our Darwin-specific
changes (which I simplified a bit). install-sh is now able to install
multiple files in one run, so we could simplify our makefiles sometime.
install-sh also now has a -d option to create directories, so we don't need
mkinstalldirs anymore.
Use AC_PROG_MKDIR_P in configure.in, so we can use mkdir -p when available
instead of install-sh -d. For consistency with the rest of the world,
the corresponding make variable has been renamed from $(mkinstalldirs) to
$(MKDIR_P).
Changes:
Pass in the keyword lookup array instead of having it be hardwired.
(This incidentally allows elimination of some duplicate coding in ecpg.)
Re-order the token declarations in gram.y so that non-keyword tokens have
numbers that won't change when keywords are added or removed.
Add ".." and ":=" to the set of tokens recognized by scan.l. (Since these
combinations are nowhere legal in core SQL, this does not change anything
except the precise wording of the error you get when you write this.)
__attribute__() marker so that gcc can validate the format string against
the actual arguments, get rid of overcomplicated and unsafe usage in
base_yyerror().
In the backend, I changed only a handful of exemplary or important-looking
instances to make use of the plural support; there is probably more work
there. For the rest of the source, this should cover all relevant cases.
kwlist.h, to avoid having to link the backend object file into other programs
like pg_dump. We can now simply symlink a single source file from the backend
(kwlookup.c, containing the shared routine ScanKeywordLookup) and compile it
locally, which is a lot cleaner.
preprocessor and the library. This is useful for a number of reasons:
* The preprocessor and the library are in some cases installed in separate
packages and used by different classes of users.
* The library MO files need a different versioning scheme to account for the
soname.
* The makefiles are simpler, more robust, and easier to maintain this way.
(NLS web site was prone to break everytime a build rule changes.)
* Translators might choose to focus on the ecpglib, because that is more
user-facing.
* There was virtually no overlap, so nothing is lost.
There are some unimplemented aspects: recursive queries must use UNION ALL
(should allow UNION too), and we don't have SEARCH or CYCLE clauses.
These might or might not get done for 8.4, but even without them it's a
pretty useful feature.
There are also a couple of small loose ends and definitional quibbles,
which I'll send a memo about to pgsql-hackers shortly. But let's land
the patch now so we can get on with other development.
Yoshiyuki Asaba, with lots of help from Tatsuo Ishii and Tom Lane
ctype are now more like encoding, stored in new datcollate and datctype
columns in pg_database.
This is a stripped-down version of Radek Strnad's patch, with further
changes by me.
so long as all the trailing arguments are of the same (non-array) type.
The function receives them as a single array argument (which is why they
have to all be the same type).
It might be useful to extend this facility to aggregates, but this patch
doesn't do that.
This patch imposes a noticeable slowdown on function lookup --- a follow-on
patch will fix that by adding a redundant column to pg_proc.

to explicitly cast the output back to char before comparing it to a char
value, else we get the wrong result for high-bit-set characters. Found by
Rolf Jentsch. Also, fix several places where <ctype.h> functions were being
called without casting the argument to unsigned char; this is likewise
unportable, but we keep making that mistake :-(. These found by buildfarm
member salamander, which I will desperately miss if it ever goes belly-up.
(or RETURNING), but only when the output name is not any SQL keyword.
This seems as close as we can get to the standard's syntax without a
great deal of thrashing. Original patch by Hiroshi Saito, amended by me.
- Really prepare statements
- Added more regression tests
- Added auto-prepare mode
- Use '$n' for positional variables, '?' is still possible via ecpg option
- Cleaned up the sources a little bit
- Made some chars const as proposed by Stefan Huehner <stefan@huehner.org>.
- Synced parser and keyword lists.
- Copied two token parsing from backend parser to ecpg parser.
- Also added a test case for this.
Standard English uses "may", "can", and "might" in different ways:
may - permission, "You may borrow my rake."
can - ability, "I can lift that log."
might - possibility, "It might rain today."
Unfortunately, in conversational English, their use is often mixed, as
in, "You may use this variable to do X", when in fact, "can" is a better
choice. Similarly, "It may crash" is better stated, "It might crash".
Made this option mark the .c files, so the environment variable is no longer needed.
Created a special MinGW file with the special error message.
Do not print port into log file when running regression tests.
return true for exactly the characters treated as whitespace by their flex
scanners. Per report from Victor Snezhko and subsequent investigation.
Also fix a passel of unsafe usages of <ctype.h> functions, that is, ye olde
char-vs-unsigned-char issue. I won't miss <ctype.h> when we are finally
able to stop using it.
builds all the files needed for its regression tests, but the tests
themselves fail because of diffs in the #line directives output by
ecpg itself. Not sure what to do about that.
Fixed broken newline on Windows.
Fixed a nasty buffer underrun that only occured when using Informix
no_indicator NULL setting on timestamps and intervals.
throw warnings for 100%-SQL-standard constructs, clean up some minor
infelicities, try to un-break ecpg to the best of my ability. (It's not clear
how ecpg is going to find out the setting of standard_conforming_strings,
though.) I think pg_dump still needs work, too.
not likely ever to be implemented seeing it's been removed from SQL2003.
This allows getting rid of the 'filter' version of yylex() that we had in
parser.c, which should save at least a few microseconds in parsing.
Fixed missing continuation line character.
Do not translate $-quoting.
Bit field notation belongs to a variable not a variable list.
Output of line number only done by one function.
internally $$ strings are converted to single-quote strings.
In ecpg, output newlines in commands using standard C escapes, rather
than using literal newlines, which is not portable.
