with main, avoid using a SQL-defined SQLSTATE for what is most definitely
not a SQL-compatible error condition, fix documentation omissions,
adhere to message style guidelines, don't use two GUC_REPORT variables
when one is sufficient. Nothing done about pg_dump issues.
to unreserved keyword, use ereport not elog, assign a separate error code
for 'could not obtain lock' so that applications will be able to detect
that case cleanly.
There are still some things that need refinement; in particular I fear
that the recognized set of error condition names probably has little in
common with what Oracle recognizes. But it's a start.
SAVEPOINT/RELEASE/ROLLBACK-TO syntax. (Alvaro)
Cause COMMIT of a failed transaction to report ROLLBACK instead of
COMMIT in its command tag. (Tom)
Fix a few loose ends in the nested-transactions stuff.
of bug report #1150. Also, arrange that the object owner's irrevocable
grant-option permissions are handled implicitly by the system rather than
being listed in the ACL as self-granted rights (which was wrong anyway).
I did not take the further step of showing these permissions in an
explicit 'granted by _SYSTEM' ACL entry, as that seemed more likely to
bollix up existing clients than to do anything really useful. It's still
a possible future direction, though.
a variant of the function for the 'numeric' datatype; it would be possible
to add additional variants for other datatypes, but I haven't done so yet.
This commit includes regression tests and minimal documentation; if we
want developers to actually use this function in applications, we'll
probably need to document what it does more fully.
float8 types. This begins the deprecation of this feature: in 7.6,
this input will be rejected.
Also added a new error code for warnings about deprecated features,
and updated the regression tests.
now able to cope with assigning new relfilenode values to nailed-in-cache
indexes, so they can be reindexed using the fully crash-safe method. This
leaves only shared system indexes as special cases. Remove the 'index
deactivation' code, since it provides no useful protection in the shared-
index case. Require reindexing of shared indexes to be done in standalone
mode, but remove other restrictions on REINDEX. -P (IgnoreSystemIndexes)
now prevents using indexes for lookups, but does not disable index updates.
It is therefore safe to allow from PGOPTIONS. Upshot: reindexing system catalogs
can be done without a standalone backend for all cases except
shared catalogs.
lumping them into ERRCODE_UNDEFINED_OBJECT/ERRCODE_DUPLICATE_OBJECT.
This seems reasonable since 'object' was meant to refer to 'object in the
database' and a file is outside the database. Per request from Dave
Cramer.
