4d58a7ca87 Optimizer can now estimate selectivity of IS NULL, IS NOT NULL,
IS TRUE, etc, with some degree of verisimilitude.  Split out
selectivity support functions from builtins.h into a new header
file selfuncs.h, so as to reduce the number of header files builtins.h
must depend on.  Fix a few missing inclusions exposed thereby.
From Joe Conway, with some kibitzing from Tom Lane.

Ok, here it is.  Cleared the ctx comment too - after -p
it will be PGC_BACKEND in any case.

2e2d17ed51 Here the latest version and first working release of Ora2Pg a tool to export
Oracle database to PostgreSQL.

    It currently dump the database schema (tables, views, sequences,
    indexes, grants), with primary, unique and foreign keys into PostgreSQL
    syntax without editing the SQL code generated. You can dump only a
    particular schema from the Oracle database.

    Functions, procedures and triggers with SQL or PLSQL code generated must
    be reviewed to match the PostgreSQL syntax. Some usefull recommandation
    on porting Oracle to PostgreSQL can be found at
http://techdocs.postgresql.org/
    under the "Converting from other Databases to PostgreSQL" Oracle part. I
just
    notice one thing more is that the trunc() function in Oracle is the same for
number
    or date so be carefull when porting to PostgreSQL to use trunc() for number
and
    date_trunc() for date.

I will add more precision in type NUMBER conversion based on length to match
as closest as possible all rich PostgreSQL numerics type. But it seems not to be

urgent as it seems that Oracle DBAs only create number with length 22 (default)
Space seems not to be their problem...

90e2663313 Shared libraries should not be linked explicitly against -lc on FreeBSD
(see http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/libtool/2000-July/001824.html).  But

9b4bfbdc2c Handle reading of startup packet and authentication exchange after forking
a new postmaster child process.  This should eliminate problems with
authentication blocking (e.g., ident, SSL init) and also reduce problems
with the accept queue filling up under heavy load.

The option to send elog output to a different file per backend (postgres -o)
has been disabled for now because the initialization would have to happen
in a different order and it's not clear we want to keep this anyway.

f5d0c6cad5 Apparently, on some systems, ExtUtils::Embed and MakeMaker are slightly
broken, and its impossible to make a shared library when compiling with
both CCDLFLAGS and LDDLFAGS, you have to pick one or the other.

7aac048b59 Attached is a patch to deal with the ones that I missed the first time
around.  I tested this patch under Cygwin and Linux.

Note that I only changed dblink's Makefile in the most minimal way
to fix the link problem under Cygwin (i.e., use the link rule from
Makefile.shlib instead).  dblink's Makefile should probably be further
patched to be consistent with the other PostgreSQL Makefiles.

116d2bba7e Add IS UNKNOWN, IS NOT UNKNOWN boolean tests, fix the existing boolean
tests to return the correct results per SQL9x when given NULL inputs.
Reimplement these tests as well as IS [NOT] NULL to have their own
expression node types, instead of depending on special functions.

bbbc00af88 Clean up some longstanding problems in shared-cache invalidation.
SI messages now include the relevant database OID, so that operations
in one database do not cause useless cache flushes in backends attached
to other databases.  Declare SI messages properly using a union, to
eliminate the former assumption that Oid is the same size as int or Index.
Rewrite the nearly-unreadable code in inval.c, and document it better.
Arrange for catcache flushes at end of command/transaction to happen before
relcache flushes do --- this avoids loading a new tuple into the catcache
while setting up new relcache entry, only to have it be flushed again
immediately.

76d38cb0c6 Changed the error handling as follows.
1) ERRORs cause an SQL_ERROR and the SQLSTATE='S1000'.
2) NOTICEs cause an SQL_SUCCESS_WITH_INFO and the succeeding
   SQLError() returns the NOTICE message.

0ed7864d68 Well, after persuading cvsup and cvs that it _is_ possible to have local
modifiable repositories, I have a clean untrusted plperl patch to offer
you :)

Highlights:
* There's one perl interpreter used for both trusted and untrusted
procedures. I do think its unnecessary to keep two perl
interpreters around. If someone can break out from trusted "Safe" perl
mode, well, they can do what they want already. If someone disagrees, I
can change this.

* Opcode is not statically loaded anymore. Instead, we load Dynaloader,
which then can grab Opcode (and anything else you can 'use') on its own.

* Checked to work on FreeBSD 4.3 + perl 5.5.3 , OpenBSD 2.8 + perl5.6.1,
RedHat 6.2 + perl 5.5.3

* Uses ExtUtils::Embed to find what options are necessary to link with
perl shared libraries

* createlang is also updated, it can create untrusted perl using 'plperlu'

* Example script (assuming you have Mail::Sendmail installed):
create function foo() returns text as '
         use Mail::Sendmail;

         %mail = ( To      => q(you@yourname.com),
                   From    => q(me@here.com),
                   Message => "This is a very short message"
                  );
         sendmail(%mail) or die $Mail::Sendmail::error;
return          "OK. Log says:\n", $Mail::Sendmail::log;
' language 'plperlu';

558fae16e3 The attached patch enables the contrib subtree to build cleanly under
Cygwin with the possible exception of mSQL-interface.  Since I don't
have mSQL installed, I skipped this tool.

Except for dealing with a missing getopt.h (oid2name) and HUGE (seg),
the bulk of the patch uses the standard PostgreSQL approach to deal with
Windows DLL issues.

I tested the build aspect of this patch under Cygwin and Linux without
any ill affects.  Note that I did not actually attempt to test the code
for functionality.

The procedure to apply the patch is as follows:

    $ # save the attachment as /tmp/contrib.patch
    $ # change directory to the top of the PostgreSQL source tree
    $ patch -p0 </tmp/contrib.patch
