I have been working with user defined types and user defined c · 9394d62c

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.

Hello, · 3f5a1643

由 Bruce Momjian 提交于 9月 27, 1999

Two patches included:
- the first one enables the use of bool variables in fields which might
become NULL.
  Up to now the lib told you that NULL is not a bool variable, even if
you provide a indicator.

- the second patch checks whether a value is null and issues an error if
no indicator is provided.

Sidenote: IIRC, the variable should be left alone if the value is NULL.
ECPGlib sets it's value to 0 on NULL. Is this a violation of the
standard?

Currently,only the first column of multi-column indices · 7b2a8e4e

is used to find start scan position of Indexscan-s.

To speed up finding scan start position,I have changed
_bt_first() to use as many keys as possible.

I'll attach the patch here.

When drawing up a very simple "text-drawing" of how the negotiation is done,
I realised I had done this last part (fallback) in a very stupid way. Patch
#4 fixes this, and does it in a much better way.

Included is also the simple text-drawing of how the negotiation is done.

  Modify nodeAgg.c so that no rows are returned for a GROUP BY · be09bc9f

with no input rows, per pghackers discussions around 7/22/99.  Clean up
a bunch of ugly coding while at it; remove redundant re-lookup of
aggregate info at start of each new GROUP.  Arrange to pfree intermediate
values when they are pass-by-ref types, so that aggregates on pass-by-ref
types no longer eat memory.  This takes care of a couple of TODO items...

Implement constant-expression simplification per Bernard · 40f65241

由 Tom Lane 提交于 9月 26, 1999

Frankpitt, plus some improvements from yours truly. The simplifier depends
on the proiscachable field of pg_proc to tell it whether a function is
safe to pre-evaluate --- things like nextval() are not, for example.
Update pg_proc.h to contain reasonable cacheability information; as of
6.5.* hardly any functions were marked cacheable. I may have erred too
far in the other direction; see recent mail to pghackers for more info.
This update does not force an initdb, exactly, but you won't see much
benefit from the simplifier until you do one.

Several changes here, not very related but touching some of the same files. · e812458b

由 Tom Lane 提交于 9月 24, 1999

* Buffer refcount cleanup (per my "progress report" to pghackers, 9/22).
* Add links to backend PROC structs to sinval's array of per-backend info,
and use these links for routines that need to check the state of all
backends (rather than the slow, complicated search of the ShmemIndex
hashtable that was used before).  Add databaseOID to PROC structs.
* Use this to implement an interlock that prevents DESTROY DATABASE of
a database containing running backends.  (It's a little tricky to prevent
a concurrently-starting backend from getting in there, since the new
backend is not able to lock anything at the time it tries to look up
its database in pg_database.  My solution is to recheck that the DB is
OK at the end of InitPostgres.  It may not be a 100% solution, but it's
a lot better than no interlock at all...)
* In ALTER TABLE RENAME, flush buffers for the relation before doing the
rename of the physical files, to ensure we don't get failures later from
mdblindwrt().
* Update TRUNCATE patch so that it actually compiles against current
sources :-(.
You should do "make clean all" after pulling these changes.
