Don't quote the output of format_procedure(); it's already quoted quite
enough. Remove the fn_name field, which was now just dead weight. Fix
remaining expected-output files.
exception handler. This was a regression in 9.1, when the capability
to catch specific SPI errors was added, so backpatch to 9.1.

This provides a separate exception class for each error code that the
backend defines, as well as the ability to get the SQLSTATE from the
exception object.

This allows the language-specific try/catch construct to catch and
handle exceptions arising from SPI calls, matching the behavior of
other PLs.
As an additional bonus you no longer get all the ugly "unrecognized
error in PLy_spi_execute_query" errors.

Global error handling led to confusion and was hard to manage. With
this change, errors from PostgreSQL are immediately reported to Python
as exceptions. This requires setting a Python exception after
reporting the caught PostgreSQL error as a warning, because PLy_elog
destroys the Python exception state.
Ideally, all places where PostgreSQL errors need to be reported back
to Python should be wrapped in subtransactions, to make going back to
Python from a longjmp safe. This will be handled in a separate patch.

Mimic the Python interpreter's own logic for printing exceptions instead
of just using the straight str() call, so that
you get
plpy.SPIError
instead of
<class 'plpy.SPIError'>
and for built-in exceptions merely
UnicodeEncodeError
Besides looking better this cuts down on the endless version differences
in the regression test expected files.
This changes a bunch of incidentially used constructs in the PL/Python
regression tests to equivalent constructs in cases where Python 3 no longer
supports the old syntax. Support for older Python versions is unchanged.
of the previous monolithic setup-create-run sequence, that was apparently
inherited from a previous test infrastructure, but makes working with the
tests and adding new ones weird.
Error messages from PL/Python now always mention the function name in the
CONTEXT: field. This also obsoletes the few places that tried to do the
same manually.
Regression test files are updated to work with Python 2.4-2.6. I don't have
access to older versions right now.

In several places PL/Python was calling PyObject_Str() and then
PyString_AsString() without checking if the former had returned
NULL to indicate an error. PyString_AsString() doesn't expect a
NULL argument, so passing one causes a segmentation fault. This
patch adds checks for NULL and raises errors via PLy_elog(), which
prints details of the underlying Python exception. The patch also
adds regression tests for these checks. All tests pass on my
Solaris 9 box running HEAD and Python 2.4.1.
In one place the patch doesn't call PLy_elog() because that could
cause infinite recursion; see the comment I added. I'm not sure
how to test that particular case or whether it's even possible to
get an error there: the value that the code should check is the
Python exception type, so I wonder if a NULL value "shouldn't
happen." This patch converts NULL to "Unknown Exception" but I
wonder if an Assert() would be appropriate.
The patch is against HEAD but the same changes should be applied
to earlier versions because they have the same problem. The patch
might not apply cleanly against earlier versions -- will the committer
take care of little differences or should I submit different versions
of the patch?

*fail*, to test that plpython didn't allow untrusted operations.
When we changed plpython to plpythonu because python didn't actually have
a secure sandbox mode, someone (probably me :-() misinterpreted the tests
as checking whether Python's file I/O works. Which is a stupid thing for
us to be testing. Remove it so we don't clutter the filesystem with
random temporary files.
