Tom Lane	458857cc9d	Throw a useful error message if an extension script file is fed to psql. We have seen one too many reports of people trying to use 9.1 extension files in the old-fashioned way of sourcing them in psql. Not only does that usually not work (due to failure to substitute for MODULE_PATHNAME and/or @extschema@), but if it did work they'd get a collection of loose objects not an extension. To prevent this, insert an \echo ... \quit line that prints a suitable error message into each extension script file, and teach commands/extension.c to ignore lines starting with \echo. That should not only prevent any adverse consequences of loading a script file the wrong way, but make it crystal clear to users that they need to do it differently now. Tom Lane, following an idea of Andrew Dunstan's. Back-patch into 9.1 ... there is not going to be much value in this if we wait till 9.2.	14 years ago
Tom Lane	029fac2264	Avoid use of CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION in extension installation files. It was never terribly consistent to use OR REPLACE (because of the lack of comparable functionality for data types, operators, etc), and experimentation shows that it's now positively pernicious in the extension world. We really want a failure to occur if there are any conflicts, else it's unclear what the extension-ownership state of the conflicted object ought to be. Most of the time, CREATE EXTENSION will fail anyway because of conflicts on other object types, but an extension defining only functions can succeed, with bad results.	15 years ago
Tom Lane	629b3af27d	Convert contrib modules to use the extension facility. This isn't fully tested as yet, in particular I'm not sure that the "foo--unpackaged--1.0.sql" scripts are OK. But it's time to get some buildfarm cycles on it. sepgsql is not converted to an extension, mainly because it seems to require a very nonstandard installation process.

Robert Haas	604ab08145	Add levenshtein_less_equal, optimized version for small distances. Alexander Korotkov, heavily revised by me.	15 years ago
Magnus Hagander	9f2e211386	Remove cvs keywords from all files.	15 years ago
Tom Lane	55f6e5f689	Add a variant of the Levenshtein string-distance function that lets the user specify the cost values to use, instead of always using 1's. Volkan Yazici In passing, remove fuzzystrmatch.h, which contained a bunch of stuff that had no business being in a .h file; fold it into its only user, fuzzystrmatch.c.	18 years ago
Bruce Momjian	33e2e02493	Add CVS version labels to all install/uninstall scripts.	18 years ago
Bruce Momjian	926bbab448	Make /contrib install/uninstall script consistent: remove transactions use create or replace function make formatting consistent set search patch on first line Add documentation on modifying *.sql to set the search patch, and mention that major upgrades should still run the installation scripts. Some of these issues were spotted by Tom today.	18 years ago
Neil Conway	1ac9f0e9f7	The attached patch implements the soundex difference function which compares two strings' soundex values for similarity, from Kris Jurka. Also mark the text_soundex() function as STRICT, to avoid crashing on NULL input.	21 years ago
Joe Conway	13629df5a1	Add double metaphone code from Andrew Dunstan. Also change metaphone so that an empty input string causes an empty output string to be returned, instead of throwing an ERROR -- per complaint from Aaron Hillegass, and consistent with double metaphone. Fix examples in README.soundex pointed out by James Robinson.	22 years ago
Tom Lane	f85f43dfb5	Backend support for autocommit removed, per recent discussions. The only remnant of this failed experiment is that the server will take SET AUTOCOMMIT TO ON. Still TODO: provide some client-side autocommit logic in libpq.	23 years ago
Bruce Momjian	aa4c702eac	Update /contrib for "autocommit TO 'on'". Create objects in public schema. Make spacing/capitalization consistent. Remove transaction block use for object creation. Remove unneeded function GRANTs.	24 years ago
Tom Lane	c0edc53a36	The attached adds GRANTs to PUBLIC for contrib/fuzzystringmatch. Joe Conway	24 years ago
Bruce Momjian	cdd02cdf00	Sorry - I should have gotten to this sooner. Here's a patch which you should be able to apply against what you just committed. It rolls soundex into fuzzystrmatch. Remove soundex/metaphone and merge into fuzzystrmatch. Joe Conway	25 years ago
Bruce Momjian	d8783c512e	Per this discussion, here's a patch to implement both levenshtein() and metaphone() in a contrib. There seem to be a fair number of different approaches to both of these algorithms. I used the simplest case for levenshtein which has a cost of 1 for any character insertion, deletion, or substitution. For metaphone, I adapted the same code from CPAN that the PHP folks did. A couple of questions: 1. Does it make sense to fold the soundex contrib together with this one? 2. I was debating trying to add multibyte support to levenshtein (it would make no sense at all for metaphone), but a quick search through the contrib directory found no hits on the word MULTIBYTE. Should worry about adding multibyte support to levenshtein()? Joe Conway	25 years ago
