Tom Lane	211e157a51	Change postgres_fdw to show casts as casts, not underlying function calls. ... On reflection this method seems to be exposing an unreasonable amount of implementation detail. It wouldn't matter when talking to a remote server of the identical Postgres version, but it seems likely to make things worse not better if the remote is a different version with different casting infrastructure. Instead adopt ruleutils.c's policy of regurgitating the cast as it was originally specified; including not showing it at all, if it was implicit to start with. (We must do that because for some datatypes explicit and implicit casts have different semantics.)	13 years ago
Tom Lane	5fd386bb31	Get rid of postgres_fdw's assumption that remote type OIDs match ours. ... The only place we depended on that was in sending numeric type OIDs in PQexecParams; but we can replace that usage with explicitly casting each Param symbol in the query string, so that the types are specified to the remote by name not OID. This makes no immediate difference but will be essential if we ever hope to support use of non-builtin types.	13 years ago
Tom Lane	6d06049493	Adjust postgres_fdw's search path handling. ... Set the remote session's search path to exactly "pg_catalog" at session start, then schema-qualify only names that aren't in that schema. This greatly reduces clutter in the generated SQL commands, as seen in the regression test changes. Per discussion. Also, rethink use of FirstNormalObjectId as the "built-in object" cutoff --- FirstBootstrapObjectId is safer, since the former will accept objects in information_schema for instance.	13 years ago
Tom Lane	d0d75c4022	Add postgres_fdw contrib module. ... There's still a lot of room for improvement, but it basically works, and we need this to be present before we can do anything much with the writable-foreign-tables patch. So let's commit it and get on with testing. Shigeru Hanada, reviewed by KaiGai Kohei and Tom Lane	13 years ago
