can be generated in a buffer and then sent to the frontend in a single
libpq call.  This solves problems with NOTICE and ERROR messages generated
in the middle of a data message or COPY OUT operation.

making prosrc instead of proname be the link to the actual internal function.

parameters in CREATE USER.

complaints (and some of my own).

2. Much faster btree tuples deletion in the case when first on page
   index tuple is deleted (no movement to the left page(s)).
3. Remember blkno of new root page in BTPageOpaque of
   left/right siblings when root page is splitted.

I have changed to call pg_exec_query_dest() instead of pg_exec_query().

Thanks.

I've been working on the following TODO list item:
  * psql \d on index with char()/varchar() fields shows improper length

I've attached a simple patch to fix this.

Move files to deadcode.

Ok. I made patches replacing all of "#if FALSE" or "#if 0" to "#ifdef
NOT_USED" for current. I have tested these patches in that the
postgres binaries are identical.

Removed CURRENT keyword for rule queries and changed rules regression
accordingly. CURRENT has beed announced to disappear in v6.5.

qualification expression trees in the execution state. Prevents from
memory exhaustion on INSERT, UPDATE or COPY to tables that have CHECK
constraints. Speedup against the variant using freeObject() is more than
factor 2.

Fixed growing of backend if BEFORE DELETE trigger returns heap tuple
different from trigtuple.

Fix for BEFORE ROW UPDATE triggers: result tuple may be different
(due to concurrent update) from one initially produced by top level plan.

buffering lost by not going through stdio anymore for client I/O.

a field was labelled as a primary key, the system automatically
created a unique index on the field.  This patch extends it so
that the index has the indisprimary field set.  You can pull a list
of primary keys with the followiing select.

SELECT pg_class.relname, pg_attribute.attname
    FROM pg_class, pg_attribute, pg_index
    WHERE pg_class.oid = pg_attribute.attrelid AND
        pg_class.oid = pg_index.indrelid AND
        pg_index.indkey[0] = pg_attribute.attnum AND
        pg_index.indisunique = 't';

There is nothing in this patch that modifies the template database to
set the indisprimary attribute for system tables.  Should they be
changed or should we only be concerned with user tables?

Here is a first patch to cleanup the backend side of libpq.
This patch removes all external dependencies on the "Pfin" and "Pfout" that
are declared in pqcomm.h. These variables are also changed to "static" to
make sure.
Almost all the change is in the handler of the "copy" command - most other
areas of the backend already used the correct functions.
This change will make the way for cleanup of the internal stuff there - now
that all the functions accessing the file descriptors are confined to a
single directory.

More cleanups to appendStringInfo() usage in node/outfuncs.c.

Jan

LOCK TABLE IN ... MODE
...implemented

New code for locking buffer' context.

more cleanups...of note, appendStringInfo now performs like sprintf(),
where you state a format and arguments.  the old behavior required
each appendStringInfo to have to have a sprintf() before it if any
formatting was required.

Also shortened several instances where there were multiple appendStringInfo()
calls in a row, doing nothing more then adding one more word to the String,
instead of doing them all in one call.

Many more cleanups...
