Peter Eisentraut	44eaafe3f8	End users shouldn't have to invoke a separate command to install the ... documentation. Therefore it's now installed by default. If there is no documentation to be found (i.e., you are not using the distribution) then this step is skipped. Add --docdir option to configure to control installation directory.	26 years ago

Tom Lane	d06ebdb8d3	Update aggregate-function docs for STDDEV, VARIANCE.	26 years ago
Tom Lane	bec98a31c5	Revise aggregate functions per earlier discussions in pghackers. ... There's now only one transition value and transition function. NULL handling in aggregates is a lot cleaner. Also, use Numeric accumulators instead of integer accumulators for sum/avg on integer datatypes --- this avoids overflow at the cost of being a little slower. Implement VARIANCE() and STDDEV() aggregates in the standard backend. Also, enable new LIKE selectivity estimators by default. Unrelated change, but as long as I had to force initdb anyway...	26 years ago

Peter Eisentraut	74618e2b82	Another round of those unportable config/build changes :-/ ... * Add option to build with OpenSSL out of the box. Fix thusly exposed bit rot. Although it compiles now, getting this to do something useful is left as an exercise. * Fix Kerberos options to defer checking for required libraries until all the other libraries are checked for. * Change default odbcinst.ini and krb5.srvtab path to PREFIX/etc. * Install work around for Autoconf's install-sh relative path anomaly. Get rid of old INSTL_*_OPTS variables, now that we don't need them anymore. * Use `gunzip -c' instead of g?zcat. Reportedly broke on AIX. * Look for only one of readline.h or readline/readline.h, not both. * Make check for PS_STRINGS cacheable. Don't test for the header files separately. * Disable fcntl(F_SETLK) test on Linux. * Substitute the standard GCC warnings set into CFLAGS in configure, don't add it on in Makefile.global. * Sweep through contrib tree to teach makefiles standard semantics. ... and in completely unrelated news: * Make postmaster.opts arbitrary options-aware. I still think we need to save the environment as well.	26 years ago

Tom Lane	1aebc3618a	First phase of memory management rewrite (see backend/utils/mmgr/README ... for details). It doesn't really do that much yet, since there are no short-term memory contexts in the executor, but the infrastructure is in place and long-term contexts are handled reasonably. A few long- standing bugs have been fixed, such as 'VACUUM; anything' in a single query string crashing. Also, out-of-memory is now considered a recoverable ERROR, not FATAL. Eliminate a large amount of crufty, now-dead code in and around memory management. Fix problem with holding off SIGTRAP, SIGSEGV, etc in postmaster and backend startup.	26 years ago
Bruce Momjian	3fb8c9d1f9	Update FAQ.	26 years ago
Peter Eisentraut	c446509565	Second pass over run-time configuration system. Adjust priorities on some ... option settings. Sort out SIGHUP vs BACKEND -- there is no total ordering here, so make explicit checks. Add comments explaining all of this. Removed permissions check on SHOW command. Add examine_subclass to the game, rename to SQL_inheritance to fit the official data model better. Adjust documentation. Standalone backend needs to reset all options before it starts. To facilitate that, have IsUnderPostmaster be set by the postmaster itself, don't wait for the magic -p switch. Also make sure that all environment variables and argv's survive init_ps_display(). Use strdup where necessary. Have initdb make configuration files (postgresql.conf, pg_hba.conf) mode 0600 -- having configuration files is no fun if you can't edit them.	26 years ago
