shared_buffers and max_connections values to use before we run the
bootstrap process. Without this, initdb would fail on platforms where
the hardwired default values are too large. (We could get around that
by making the hardwired defaults tiny, perhaps, but why slow down
bootstrap by starving it for buffers...)
and 100 respectively, if the platform will allow it. initdb selects
values that are not too large to allow the postmaster to start, and
places these values in the installed postgresql.conf file. This allows
us to continue to start up out-of-the-box on platforms with small SHMMAX,
while having somewhat-realistic default settings on platforms with
reasonable SHMMAX. Per recent pghackers discussion.
without needing a running backend. Reorder postgresql.conf.sample
to match new layout of runtime.sgml. This commit re-adds work lost
in Wednesday's crash.
client-side AUTOCOMMIT mode now: '\set AUTOCOMMIT off' supports
SQL-spec commit behavior. Get rid of LO_TRANSACTION hack --- the
LO operations just work now, using libpq's ability to track the
transaction status. Add a VERBOSE variable to control verboseness
of error message display, and add a %T prompt-string code to show
current transaction-block status. Superuser state display in the
prompt string correctly follows SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION commands.
Control-C works to get out of COPY IN state.
after the CHECK. Cluster depends on the index name, so I thought it
wise to ensure all names are available, rather than leaving off the
CONSTRAINT "$n" portion for internally named constraints.
CREATE TABLE jkey (col integer primary key);
CREATE TABLE j (col integer REFERENCES jkey);
ALTER TABLE j ADD CHECK(col > 5);
This is a problem in 7.3 series as well as -Tip.

The output now validates as HTML 4.01 Strict, XHTML 1.0 strict,
and XHTML 1.1 (assuming you wrap it in a valid html/body document).
It also wraps the output of PGRES_COMMAND_OK if the HTML tag is on,
for full compliance: this is why html_escaped_print has to be
externalized.

not all SQL identifiers taken from command line arguments. We decided
years ago that that was a bad idea: identifiers taken from the command
line should be treated as literally correct. Remove the inconsistent
code that has crept in recently. Also fix pg_dump so that the combination
of --schema and --table does what you'd expect, namely dump exactly one
table from exactly one schema. Per gripe from Deepak Bhole of Red Hat.
of order; the 'server log' output is actually client output in these
scenarios and we ought to treat elevels the same way as in the client
case. This allows initdb to not send backend stderr to /dev/null anymore,
which makes it much more likely that people will notice problems during
initdb.
of an index can now be a computed expression instead of a simple variable.
Restrictions on expressions are the same as for predicates (only immutable
functions, no sub-selects). This fixes problems recently introduced with
inlining SQL functions, because the inlining transformation is applied to
both expression trees so the planner can still match them up. Along the
way, improve efficiency of handling index predicates (both predicates and
index expressions are now cached by the relcache) and fix 7.3 oversight
that didn't record dependencies of predicate expressions.
only remnant of this failed experiment is that the server will take
SET AUTOCOMMIT TO ON. Still TODO: provide some client-side autocommit
logic in libpq.
per report from Olivier Prenant. Also fix off-by-one space calculation
in ReadToc; this woould not have hurt us until we had more than 100
dependencies for a single object, but wrong is wrong.
Example:
test=# \d test
Table "public.test"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+---------+-----------
a | integer | not null
Indexes:
"test_pkey" PRIMARY KEY btree (a)
Check Constraints:
"$2" CHECK (a > 1)
Foreign Key Constraints:
"$1" FOREIGN KEY (a) REFERENCES parent(b)
Rules:
myrule AS ON INSERT TO test DO INSTEAD NOTHING
Triggers:
"asdf asdf" AFTER INSERT OR DELETE ON test FOR EACH STATEMENT EXECUTE
PROCEDURE update_pg_pwd_and_pg_group(),
mytrigger AFTER INSERT OR DELETE ON test FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE
update_pg_pwd_and_pg_group()
I have minimised the double quoting of identifiers as much as I could
easily, and I will submit another patch when I have time to work on it that
will use a 'fmtId' function to determine it exactly.
I think it's a significant improvement in legibility...
Obviously the table example above is slightly degenerate in that not many
tables in production have heaps of (non-constraint) triggers and rules.

The first cleans up a couple of minor errors and ommissions
and adds tab completion support to more slash commands, e.g.
\dv.
The second is an attempt to add tab completion for schemas
and fully qualified relation names (e.g. public.mytable ).
I think this covers the TODO-item:
"Allow psql to do table completion for SELECT * FROM schema_part and table
completion for SELECT * FROM schema_name."
This happens via union selects querying:
- relation_name in current search path;
- schema_name;
- schema.relation_name
matching the current input string.
E.g:
SELECT p[TAB]
will produce a list of all appropriate relation names in the current search
path which begin with 'p', and also all schema names which begin with 'p';
\d pub[TAB]
will produce any relation names in the current search path and also
any schema names beginning with 'pub';
\d public.[TAB]
will produce a list of all relations in the schema 'public';
\d public.my[TAB]
produces all relation names beginning with 'my' in schema 'public'.
It seems to work for me; comments, suggestions, particularly regarding
the coding and queries, are very welcome.
Note that tables, indexes, views and sequences relations in the
'pg_catalog' namespace are excluded even though they are in
the current search path. I found not doing this produced annoying behaviour
when expanding names beginning with 'p'. People who work with system
tables a lot may not like this though; I can look for another solution
if necessary.
