Tom Lane	b663f3443b	Add a bunch of pseudo-types to replace the behavior formerly associated with OPAQUE, as per recent pghackers discussion. I still want to do some more work on the 'cstring' pseudo-type, but I'm going to commit the bulk of the changes now before the tree starts shifting under me ...	24 years ago
Bruce Momjian	e9ea1255c0	This patch adds the following to the FTI module: * The ability to index more than one column in a table with a single trigger. * All uses of sprintf changed to snprintf to prevent users from crashing Postgres. * Error messages made more consistent * Some changes made to bring it into line with coding requirements for triggers specified in the docs. (ie. check you're a trigger before casting your context) * The perl script that generate indices has been updated to support indexing multiple columns in a table. * Fairly well tested in our development environment indexing a food database's brand and description fields. The size of the fti index is around 300,000 rows. * All docs and examples upgraded. This includes specifying more efficient index usage that was specified before, better examples that don't produce duplicates, etc. Christopher Kings-Lynne & Brett	25 years ago
Bruce Momjian	938236a297	The fti.pl supplied with the fulltextindex module generate ALL possible substrings of two characters or greater, and is case-sensitive. This patch makes it work correctly. It generates only the suffixes of each word, plus lowercases them - as specified by the README file. This brings it into line with the fti.c function, makes it case-insensitive properly, removes the problem with duplicate rows being returned from an fti search and greatly reduces the size of the generated index table. It was written by my co-worker, Brett Toolin. Christopher Kings-Lynne	25 years ago
Tom Lane	5bb2300b59	Revise handling of oldstyle/newstyle functions per recent discussions in pghackers list. Support for oldstyle internal functions is gone (no longer needed, since conversion is complete) and pg_language entry 'internal' now implies newstyle call convention. pg_language entry 'newC' is gone; both old and newstyle dynamically loaded C functions are now called language 'C'. A newstyle function must be identified by an associated info routine. See src/backend/utils/fmgr/README.	25 years ago
