Bruce Momjian	be0204133c	Move LOCK terms down.	26 years ago
Tom Lane	0edcee3459	Fold PQsetenv working state into PGconn, rather than trying to maintain ... it in a separate object. There's no value in keeping the state separate, and it creates dangling-pointer problems. Also, remove PQsetenv routines from public API, until and unless they are redesigned to have a safer interface. Since they were never part of the documented API before 7.0, it's unlikely that anyone is calling them.	26 years ago
Bruce Momjian	853cf66176	Update HISTORY	26 years ago
Bruce Momjian	6d79d6027c	>> 5. empty define that results in an empty but terminated line ( ; ) ... easy (maybe dumb) fix for 5 in attachment define.patch greetings, Andreas	26 years ago

Bruce Momjian	4ddc50dffa	Hmm, absolute pathnames for the copy makes sense. I'll whip up that ... patch in a second. Should be sufficent to just make sure the first character is a '/', right? Ross J. Reedstrom	26 years ago

Bruce Momjian	b508136d81	Update HISTORY file for 7.0.	26 years ago

Tom Lane	339fe3c4cb	Add note that ':' and ';' operators are deprecated.	26 years ago
Tom Lane	f945f46193	Modify lexing of multi-char operators per pghackers discussion around ... 16-Mar-00: trailing + or - is not part of the operator unless the operator also contains characters not present in SQL92-defined operators. This solves the 'X=-Y' problem without unduly constraining users' choice of operator names --- in particular, no existing Postgres operator names become invalid. Also, remove processing of // comments, as agreed in the same thread.	26 years ago
Tom Lane	0e314d747e	Add safety check on expression nesting depth. Default value is set by ... a config.h #define, and the runtime value can be controlled via SET.	26 years ago
Thomas G. Lockhart	1f3122e26d	Fix typo (introduced by xemacs markup normalization) in the syntax summary.	26 years ago
Tom Lane	1763a7c1ea	Tweak GROUP BY so that it will still accept result-column names, but only ... after trying to resolve the item as an input-column name. This allows us to be compliant with the SQL92 spec for queries that fall within the spec, while still accepting the same out-of-spec queries as 6.5 did. You'll only lose if there is an output column name that is the same as an input column name, but doesn't refer to the same value. 7.0 will interpret such a GROUP BY spec differently than 6.5 did. No way around that, because 6.5 was clearly not spec compliant.	26 years ago
