DROP CONSTRAINT
This form drops constraints on a table. Currently, constraints on tables
are not required to have unique names, so there may be more than one
constraint matching the specified name. All matching constraints will be
dropped.
To my knowledge, it is no longer possible to create constraints with the
same name for the same relation. When you create a constraint and specify
the same name explictly, an error is raised. Implicit constraint creation
won't choose an existing name either and up to now you could not rename a
constraint. Renaming works with the patch I sent in a few hours ago but this
patch as well won't allow constraints with identical names on the same
relation.
The attached patch thus removes the note in the docs.

support for the dbf2pg contrib module.
The submitter created a patch which replaces the silent ignoring of -F
(when iconv support is disabled) with a meaningful warning.

I have the problem, when building by MS-VC6.
An error occurs in the 8.1.0 present source codes.
nmake -f win32.mak
..\..\port\getaddrinfo.c(244) : error C2065: 'WSA_NOT_ENOUGH_MEMORY'
..\..\port\getaddrinfo.c(342) : error C2065: 'WSATYPE_NOT_FOUND'
This is used by winsock2.h. However, Construction of a windows base is
winsock.h.
Then, Since MinGW has special environment, this is right. but, it is not
found in VC6.
Furthermore, in getaddrinfo.c, IPV6-API is used by
LoadLibraryA("ws2_32");
Referring to of dll the external memory generates this violation by VC6
specification.
I considered whether the whole should have been converted into winsock2.
However, Now, DLL of MinGW creation operates wonderfully as it is.
That's right, it has pliability by replacement of simple DLL.
Then, I propose the system using winsock(non IPV6) in construction of
VC6.

the latest release notes there is a latin1 character that shouldn't be
there so I made a patch to fix that. This patch also fixes some old
entries that uses o instead of ö (which is also wrong but not as
bad as including a latin1 character in the sgml file).

clauses even if it's an outer join. This is a corner case since such
clauses could only arise from weird OUTER JOIN ON conditions, but worth
fixing. Per example from Ron at cheapcomplexdevices.com.
incorrect implementation of argument reordering, arbitrary limit of output
size for sprintf and fprintf, willingness to access more bytes than "%.Ns"
specification allows, wrong formatting of LONGLONG_MIN, various field-padding
bugs and omissions. I believe it now accurately implements a subset of
the Single Unix Spec requirements (remaining unimplemented features are
documented, too). Bruce Momjian and Tom Lane.
proposed pgbench changes" on 2005/11/29 for more details.
The change at line 490 updates doCustom's local variable "commands"
after selecting a new file (command sequence). I think that the
existing coding will cause the thing to use the first command of the
old sequence in the remainder of the routine, which would be a bug.
I have not tried to set up a test case to prove it, though.
The other two changes cause doCustom to loop after processing a
meta-command. This might be a bit controversial, but as the code
is currently written, each meta-command "costs" one cycle of the
outer select() loop. Thus, for example, with the default TPC-B script,
once a backend returns "COMMIT" it will not receive a new command
until four cycles of issuing commands to other backends have elapsed.
(You can see this very easily by strace'ing pgbench under load.)
Map them to a single day, so '30 hours' is 'AM'.
Have to_char(interval) and to_char(time) use "HH", "HH12" as 12-hour
intervals, rather than bypass and print the full interval hours. This
is neeeded because to_char(time) is mapped to interval in this function.
Intervals should use "HH24", and document suggestion.
Allow "D" format specifiers for interval/time.
child plan nodes until we have acquired lock on the relation to scan.
The relative order of initialization of plan nodes isn't real important in
other cases, but it's critical here because one is supposed to lock a
relation before its indexes, not vice versa. The original coding was at
least vulnerable to deadlock against DROP INDEX, and perhaps worse things.
Also add a retry for Unixen returning EINTR, which hasn't been reported
as an issue but at least theoretically could be. Patch by Qingqing Zhou,
some minor adjustments by me.
#2075: consider an index redundant if any of its index conditions were already
used, rather than if all of them were. Also, make the selectivity comparison
a bit fuzzy, so that very small differences in estimated selectivities don't
skew the results.
it's worth probing the outer relation for emptiness before building the
hash table. To wit, if we're rescanning a join previously performed,
remember whether we found it nonempty the previous time, and don't bother
with the probe if it was nonempty. This buys back the performance lost
in examples like Mario Weilguni's.
one child or the other had a problem: they did not leave the node in a
state that ExecReScanHashJoin would understand. In particular it would
tend to fail to reset the child plans when needed. Per report from
Mario Weilguni.
