Author	SHA1	Message	Date
Tom Lane	c328b6dd8b	Replace pg_attribute.attisinherited with attislocal and attinhcount ... columns, to allow more correct behavior in multiple-inheritance cases. Patch by Alvaro Herrera, review by Tom Lane.	24 years ago
Tom Lane	634e440b58	Fix busted markup.	24 years ago
Tom Lane	9946b83ded	Bring SIMILAR TO and SUBSTRING into some semblance of conformance with ... the SQL99 standard. (I'm not sure that the character-class features are quite right, but that can be fixed later.) Document SQL99 and POSIX regexps as being different features; provide variants of SUBSTRING for each.	24 years ago
Tom Lane	eb3adab568	Provide an upgrade strategy for dump files containing functions declared ... with OPAQUE. CREATE LANGUAGE, CREATE TRIGGER, and CREATE TYPE will all accept references to functions declared with OPAQUE --- but they will issue a NOTICE, and will modify the function entries in pg_proc to have the preferred type-safe argument or result types instead of OPAQUE. Per recent pghackers discussions.	24 years ago

Tom Lane	b26dfb9522	Extend pg_cast castimplicit column to a three-way value; this allows us ... to be flexible about assignment casts without introducing ambiguity in operator/function resolution. Introduce a well-defined promotion hierarchy for numeric datatypes (int2->int4->int8->numeric->float4->float8). Change make_const to initially label numeric literals as int4, int8, or numeric (never float8 anymore). Explicitly mark Func and RelabelType nodes to indicate whether they came from a function call, explicit cast, or implicit cast; use this to do reverse-listing more accurately and without so many heuristics. Explicit casts to char, varchar, bit, varbit will truncate or pad without raising an error (the pre-7.2 behavior), while assigning to a column without any explicit cast will still raise an error for wrong-length data like 7.3. This more nearly follows the SQL spec than 7.2 behavior (we should be reporting a 'completion condition' in the explicit-cast cases, but we have no mechanism for that, so just do silent truncation). Fix some problems with enforcement of typmod for array elements; it didn't work at all in 'UPDATE ... SET array[n] = foo', for example. Provide a generalized array_length_coerce() function to replace the specialized per-array-type functions that used to be needed (and were missing for NUMERIC as well as all the datetime types). Add missing conversions int8<->float4, text<->numeric, oid<->int8. initdb forced.	24 years ago

No one commented on the choice of name, so the attached patch changes the name of split(text,text,int) to split_part(text,text,int) per Hannu's recommendation above. This can be applied without an initdb if current beta testers are advised to run: update pg_proc set proname = 'split_part' where proname = 'split'; in the case they want to use this function. Regression and doc fix is also included in the patch. Joe Conway	24 years ago

Tom Lane	d61de58906	Arrange for the default permissions on a database to allow temp table ... creation to world, but disallow temp table creation in template1. Per latest round of pghackers discussion. I did not force initdb, but the permissions lockdown on template1 will not take effect unless you do one (or manually REVOKE TEMP ON DATABASE template1 FROM public).	24 years ago
