expression_tree_mutator rather than ad-hoc tree walking code. This shortens the code materially and fixes a fair number of sins of omission. Also, change modifyAggrefQual to *not* recurse into subselects, since its mission is satisfied if it removes aggregate functions from the top level of a WHERE clause. This cures problems with queries of the form SELECT ... WHERE x IN (SELECT ... HAVING something-using-an-aggregate), which would formerly get mucked up by modifyAggrefQual. The routine is still fundamentally broken, of course, but I don't think there's any way to get rid of it before we implement subselects in FROM ...

functions. One problem that I have encountered with the function manager is that it does not allow the user to define type conversion functions that convert between user types. For instance if mytype1, mytype2, and mytype3 are three Postgresql user types, and if I wish to define Postgresql conversion functions like I run into problems, because the Postgresql dynamic loader would look for a single link symbol, mytype3, for both pieces of object code. If I just change the name of one of the Postgresql functions (to make the symbols distinct), the automatic type conversion that Postgresql uses, for example, when matching operators to arguments no longer finds the type conversion function. The solution that I propose, and have implemented in the attatched patch extends the CREATE FUNCTION syntax as follows. In the first case above I use the link symbol mytype2_to_mytype3 for the link object that implements the first conversion function, and define the Postgresql operator with the following syntax The patch includes changes to the parser to include the altered syntax, changes to the ProcedureStmt node in nodes/parsenodes.h, changes to commands/define.c to handle the extra information in the AS clause, and changes to utils/fmgr/dfmgr.c that alter the way that the dynamic loader figures out what link symbol to use. I store the string for the link symbol in the prosrc text attribute of the pg_proc table which is currently unused in rows that reference dynamically loaded functions. Bernie Frankpitt

an empty targetlist *and* fails to return any tuples, as will happen for example with 'SELECT COUNT(1) FROM table WHERE ...' if the where- clause selects no tuples. It's so nice to make a fix by diking out code, instead of adding more...

behavior as it was, apart from forbidding minus-terminated operators. Seems that I have to break the habit of doing before thinking properly :-/ The point is that my second patch breaks constructs like a & b or a ! b. This patch is to be applied instead of any of two other today's patches. Leon
