Tom Lane	d034a268a2	FAQ_IRIX	19 years ago
Tom Lane	d015d08b43	Rename default text search parser's "uri" token type to "url_path", ... per recommendation from Alvaro. This doesn't force initdb since the numeric token type in the catalogs doesn't change; but note that the expected regression test output changed.	19 years ago

Tom Lane	9ddfe034c7	Fix ALTER SEQUENCE so that it does not affect the value of currval() for ... the sequence. Also, make setval() with is_called = false not affect the currval state, either. Per report from Kris Jurka that an implicit ALTER SEQUENCE OWNED BY unexpectedly caused currval() to become valid. Since this isn't 100% backwards compatible, it will go into HEAD only; I'll put a more limited patch into 8.2.	19 years ago
Alvaro Herrera	0e3ddc8dd5	Use more real-world examples in the text search parser documentation.	19 years ago
Bruce Momjian	41f207620a	Update release notes to current CVS.	19 years ago
Tom Lane	048efc25e4	Disallow scrolling of FOR UPDATE/FOR SHARE cursors, so as to avoid problems ... in corner cases such as re-fetching a just-deleted row. We may be able to relax this someday, but let's find out how many people really care before we invest a lot of work in it. Per report from Heikki and subsequent discussion. While in the neighborhood, make the combination of INSENSITIVE and FOR UPDATE throw an error, since they are semantically incompatible. (Up to now we've accepted but just ignored the INSENSITIVE option of DECLARE CURSOR.)	19 years ago
Tom Lane	8a35b07e18	Remove obsolete statement that you can't update through a cursor.	19 years ago
Tom Lane	592c88a0d2	Remove the aggregate form of ts_rewrite(), since it doesn't work as desired ... if there are zero rows to aggregate over, and the API seems both conceptually and notationally ugly anyway. We should look for something that improves on the tsquery-and-text-SELECT version (which is also pretty ugly but at least it works...), but it seems that will take query infrastructure that doesn't exist today. (Hm, I wonder if there's anything in or near SQL2003 window functions that would help?) Per discussion.	19 years ago
Tom Lane	dbaec70c15	Rename and slightly redefine the default text search parser's "word" ... categories, as per discussion. asciiword (formerly lword) is still ASCII-letters-only, and numword (formerly word) is still the most general mixed-alpha-and-digits case. But word (formerly nlword) is now any-group-of-letters-with-at-least-one-non-ASCII, rather than all-non-ASCII as before. This is no worse than before for parsing mixed Russian/English text, which seems to have been the design center for the original coding; and it should simplify matters for parsing most European languages. In particular it will not be necessary for any language to accept strings containing digits as being regular "words". The hyphenated-word categories are adjusted similarly.	19 years ago
Tom Lane	f551348417	Clarify example of planner cost computation, per a suggestion from ... James Shaw. Also update a couple of examples to reflect 8.3's improved plan-printing code.	19 years ago
Tom Lane	3e17ef1cfa	Adjust ts_debug's output as per my proposal of yesterday: show the ... active dictionary and its output lexemes as separate columns, instead of smashing them into one text column, and lowercase the column names. Also, define the output rowtype using OUT parameters instead of a composite type, to be consistent with the other built-in functions.	19 years ago
Tom Lane	6088bfb8b6	Create a quick-and-dirty list of known migration issues for pre-8.3 ... users of tsearch. This isn't meant to be permanent documentation, but to call out the areas that need either fixing or real documentation.	19 years ago
Tom Lane	dfc6f130b4	Editorial overhaul for text search documentation. Organize the info ... more clearly, improve a lot of unclear descriptions, add some missing material. We still need a migration guide though.	19 years ago
