regardless of the current schema search path. Since CREATE OPERATOR CLASS
only allows one default opclass per datatype regardless of schemas, this
should have minimal impact, and it fixes problems with failure to find a
desired opclass while restoring dump files. Per discussion at
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-02/msg00284.php.
Remove now-redundant-or-unused code in typcache.c and namespace.c,
and backpatch as far as 8.0.
If the second output column value is 'a\nb', the 'b' should appear
in the second display column, rather than the first column as it
does now.

BACKWARD COMPATIBLE CHANGE.
The only user-visible change I saw in the regression tests is that a
SELECT * on a table where all the columns have been dropped doesn't
return a blank line like before. This seems like a step forward.

not print the owner name in the object comment.
eg:
--
-- Name: actor; Type: TABLE; Schema: public; Owner: chriskl; Tablespace:
--
Becomes:
--
-- Name: actor; Type: TABLE; Schema: public; Owner: -; Tablespace:
--
This makes it far easier to do 'user independent' dumps. Especially for
distribution to third parties.

the format on Tuple(Numeric) and the format to calculate(NumericVar)
are different. I understood that to reduce I/O. However, when many
comparisons or calculations of NUMERIC are executed, the conversion
of Numeric and NumericVar becomes a bottleneck.
It is profile result when "create index on NUMERIC column" is executed:

The create index command executes many comparisons of Numeric values.
Functions other than comparetup_index spent a lot of cycles for
conversion from Numeric to NumericVar.
An attached patch enables the comparison of Numeric values without
executing conversion to NumericVar. The execution time of that SQL
becomes half.

would basically punt in all cases for 'foo <> ALL (array)', which resulted
in a performance regression for NOT IN compared to what we were doing in
8.1 and before. Per report from Pavel Stehule.
relations: fix the executor so that we can have an Append plan on the
inside of a nestloop and still pass down outer index keys to index scans
within the Append, then generate such plans as if they were regular
inner indexscans. This avoids the need to evaluate the outer relation
multiple times.
... in fact, it will be applied now in any query whatsoever. I'm still
a bit concerned about the cycles that might be expended in failed proof
attempts, but given that CE is turned off by default, it's the user's
choice whether to expend those cycles or not. (Possibly we should
change the simple bool constraint_exclusion parameter to something
more fine-grained?)
internally $$ strings are converted to single-quote strings.
In ecpg, output newlines in commands using standard C escapes, rather

thereby sharing code with the inheritance case. This puts the UNION-ALL-view
approach to partitioned tables on par with inheritance, so far as constraint
exclusion is concerned: it works either way. (Still need to update the docs
to say so.) The definition of "simple UNION ALL" is a little simpler than
I would like --- basically the union arms can only be SELECT * FROM foo
--- but it's good enough for partitioned-table cases.

own snprintf.c was being used.

Backpatch to 8.1.X and 8.0.X.
inheritance trees on-the-fly, which pretty well constrained us to considering
only one way of planning inheritance, expand inheritance sets during the
planner prep phase, and build a side data structure that can be consulted
later to find which RTEs are members of which inheritance sets. As proof of
concept, use the data structure to plan joins against inheritance sets more
efficiently: we can now use indexes on the set members in inner-indexscan
joins. (The generated plans could be improved further, but it'll take some
executor changes.) This data structure will also support handling UNION ALL
subqueries in the same way as inheritance sets, but that aspect of it isn't
finished yet.
to avoid sharing substructure with the lower-level indexquals. This is
currently only an issue if there are SubPlans in the indexquals, which is
uncommon but not impossible --- see bug #2218 reported by Nicholas Vinen.
We use the same kluge for indexqual vs indexqualorig in the index scans

requested sort order. It was assuming that build_index_pathkeys always
generates a pathkey per index column, which was not true if implied equality
deduction had determined that two index columns were effectively equated to
each other. Simplest fix seems to be to install an option that causes
build_index_pathkeys to support this behavior as well as the original one.
Per report from Brian Hirt.
memory in the executor's per-query memory context. It also inefficient:
it invokes get_call_result_type() and TupleDescGetAttInMetadata() for
every call to return_next, rather than invoking them once (per PL/Perl
function call) and memoizing the result.
This patch makes the following changes:
- refactor the code to include all the "per PL/Perl function call" data
inside a single struct, "current_call_data". This means we don't need to
save and restore N pointers for every recursive call into PL/Perl, we
can just save and restore one.
- lookup the return type metadata needed by plperl_return_next() once,
and then stash it in "current_call_data", so as to avoid doing the
lookup for every call to return_next.
- create a temporary memory context in which to evaluate the return
type's input functions. This memory context is reset for each call to
return_next.
The patch appears to fix the memory leak, and substantially reduces
the overhead imposed by return_next.
