finished cleaning up outnodes.c ...

Please apply to both trees.

- the first patch is just to preven listing the perl warning in the
  make output unless it is actually emitted by the make.  this may
  prevent new users from being confused by the warning in their output

- the second patch (to 2 files) just enables building/installing
  pgaccess if TCL and TK are available.  a Makefile is created to do
  this, but you may wish to change the heading information in it since
  I just copied another Makefile to use as a template.

I hope these make it into 6.4.1.

Cheers,
Brook

MIPS cpu (I think it's R4000). I have tested the patches on LinuxPPC
and FreeBSD. I believe they do not harm other platforms.

Add Emacs configuration block to postgres.sgml.

 the FROM clause. e.g. "SELECT table.*".

These fixes are from Jeff Hoffmann <jeff@remapcorp.com>.

Remove mention of the old "migration" flat files.
Change URLs for resources to point to areas, not particular files.
 That way things stay correct even when version of tools change.
 Suggested by Vince Vielhaber.

Rearrange a few other keywords to put them in the proper category.

 tags even if DocBook is not installed on your local system.
Most of the .sgml source files contain a reference to this file in an
 Emacs setup block at the bottom of the file...

Not yet complete, integrated, or marked up.
Not yet included in a document (should go in the developer's doc?).

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

LOCK TABLE IN ... MODE
...implemented

6.4.1. Here is the list:

- The type int8 now works. In fact, the bug(s) were in
src/backend/port/snprintf.c, so int8 is probably broken in every platform
that hasn't a native snprintf/vsnprintf. The type itself worked as
expected, only the output was wrong. Anyway, this patch should be checked
in other platforms.

- The regression tests for int2 and int4, which were broken due to
differences in the error messages, are fixed.

- The regression test for float8, which was broken in the reference
platform, is also fixed. I don't know if the new file (float8-OSF1.out)
will work on other platforms, but it might be worth to try it.

- Two new template files are provided (alpha_cc, which includes
optimization, and alpha_gcc), and src/templates/.similar is updated
accordingly. src/templates/alpha should be removed from the distribution.
*IMPORTANT NOTE*: I don't know if you can use gcc to compile postgres;
I've written the alpha_gcc file because alpha_cc has some flags that are
specific to DEC C.

- There is a (very basic) Digital Unix specific FAQ in
doc/FAQ_DigitalUnix.

Looks like :vartypmod got transmuted to %vartypmod in an editing session.

Oops, sorry...meant to commit the patch from Thomas for tzn->CTZName

New code for locking buffer' context.

More cleanups ... this is one big file *sigh*

Correct some typos...

More cleanups of appendStringInfo() function calls...

missed before the release. It's simply a symbol that is undefined. This
patch defines this symbol in "win32.h", so it should have no effect on any
other platforms. It should go into 6.4.1 if possible, since compilation is
completely broken without it.

I am also attaching a patch for the "win32.mak" file - it leaves a file
behind when doing "make clean" after the library is built on Visual C++ 6.0.
This is not at all as urgent, but I don't see it breaking here, so I think
it might as well go in there too?

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...

Initial attempt to clean up the code...

Switch sprintf() to snprintf()
Remove any/all #if 0 -or- #ifdef NOT_USED -or- #ifdef FALSE sections of
	code

For the 6.5 tree.

Have a great night.
Terry

support. Included patches will solve it and should be applied to
both trees.  Also, it fix the problem with \c command of psql when
switching different encoding databases.

Regression tests passed.

Allows (at least some) rules and views.
Still some trouble (crashes) with target CASE columns spanning tables,
 but lots now works.
