and doesn't process forward slashes in the same way as external
commands. Quoting the first argument to COPY does not convert forward
to backward slashes, but COPY does properly process quoted forward
slashes in the second argument.
Win32 COPY works with quoted forward slashes in the first argument only if the
current directory is the same as the directory of the first argument.
it with previous prototype to suppress complaints from picky compilers,
per report from Scott Bailey. Also, remove substitute strerror
definition --- not needed, since we link this with libpgport.
for transaction commits that occurred just before the checkpoint. This is
an EXTREMELY serious bug --- kudos to Satoshi Okada for creating a
reproducible test case to prove its existence.
of '.' or '..'. Extend canonicalize_path() to trim off trailing occurrences
of these things, and use it to fix up paths where needed (which I think is
only after places where we trim the last path component, but maybe some
others will turn up). Fixes Josh's complaint that './initdb' does not
work.
slashes to backslashes #ifdef WIN32. This is to cope with the fact
that Windows seems exceedingly unfriendly to slashes in shell commands,
as per recent discussion.
CurrentMemoryContext is DLLIMPORT on Win32. Work around that by
creating stubs in the backend for palloc/pstrdup.
Also fix pg_dumpall to do proper quoting on Win32.
was previously allowed in odd places with odd results now causes an ERROR.
Also changed behavior with respect to whitespace -- trailing whitespace is
now ignored as well as leading whitespace (which has always been ignored).
Documentation updated to reflect change in whitespace handling. Also some
refactoring to what I believe is a more sensible order of several paragraphs.
There won't be any, and in fact there won't even be an RTE for NEW,
which was leading to a core dump in CVS tip. 7.4 and earlier manage
not to crash when applying ResolveNew in this scenario, but I think
it was just good fortune that they didn't. Per report from
Bernd Helmle.
o "_" is not escaped, and causes TeX to abort, thinking it's a
subscript outside of maths mode. Most of my table and field names
use underscores, so this is a really nasty one.
o The column count is calculated using the contents of opt_align. But
opt_align has one extra element, and so it's always one too many. I
changed it to count the column headings, like all the other output
formats. There may be a bug in computing opt_align that this patch
does not address, but I'm not yet familiar enough with the psql
source to fix this as well.
o The line drawing rules for each border setting (0-3) and expanded
mode didn't always match the documented behaviour and what other
formats (e.g. aligned) did. I made it as conformant as possible,
and also tidied the alignment of the first line of the footer, which
was incorrectly indented.
