in all cases, leaked TopMemoryContext memory in others. Make the
interaction between SetClientEncoding and InitializeClientEncoding
cleaner and better documented. I suspect these changes should be
back-patched into 7.3, but will wait on Tatsuo's verification.
for tableID/columnID in RowDescription. (The latter isn't really
implemented yet though --- the backend always sends zeroes, and libpq
just throws away the data.)
initial values and runtime changes in selected parameters. This gets
rid of the need for an initial 'select pg_client_encoding()' query in
libpq, bringing us back to one message transmitted in each direction
for a standard connection startup. To allow server version to be sent
using the same GUC mechanism that handles other parameters, invent the
concept of a never-settable GUC parameter: you can 'show server_version'
but it's not settable by any GUC input source. Create 'lc_collate' and
'lc_ctype' never-settable parameters so that people can find out these
settings without need for pg_controldata. (These side ideas were all
discussed some time ago in pgsql-hackers, but not yet implemented.)
into a UNION that has some type coercions applied to the component
queries, so long as the qual itself does not reference any columns that
have such coercions. Per example from Jonathan Bartlett 24-Apr-03.
rewritten and the protocol is changed, but most elog calls are still
elog calls. Also, we need to contemplate mechanisms for controlling
all this functionality --- eg, how much stuff should appear in the
postmaster log? And what API should libpq expose for it?
have length words. COPY OUT reimplemented per new protocol: it doesn't
need \. anymore, thank goodness. COPY BINARY to/from frontend works,
at least as far as the backend is concerned --- libpq's PQgetline API
is not up to snuff, and will have to be replaced with something that is
null-safe. libpq uses message length words for performance improvement
(no cycles wasted rescanning long messages), but not yet for error
recovery.
Output \r\n termination on Win32.
Disallow literal carriage return as a data value,
backslash-carriage-return and \r still allowed.
Doc changes already committed.
with variable-width fields. No more truncation of long user names.
Also, libpq can now send its environment-variable-driven SET commands
as part of the startup packet, saving round trips to server.
fixing an order by problem for index metadata results.
Also includes removing some unused code as well as a fix to the toString
method on statement.
