but just hardwire the specified timezone database path into the executable.
Per discussion, this avoids some packaging disadvantages of using a
symlink.
This prevents needing to do complex and poorly-defined updates of the
mapping table if the new parser has different token types than the old.
Per discussion.
init options of the template as top-level options in the syntax. This also
makes ALTER a bit easier to use, since options can be replaced individually.
I also made these statements verify that the tmplinit method will accept
the new settings before they get stored; in the original coding you didn't
find out about mistakes until the dictionary got invoked.
Under the hood, init methods now get options as a List of DefElem instead
of a raw text string --- that lets tsearch use existing options-pushing code
instead of duplicating functionality.
pages for the new SQL commands. I also committed Bruce's text search
introductory chapter, as-is except for fixing some markup errors,
so that there would be a place for the reference pages to link to.
Oleg Bartunov and Teodor Sigaev, but I did a lot of editorializing,
so anything that's broken is probably my fault.
Documentation is nonexistent as yet, but let's land the patch so we can
get some portability testing done.

certain corner cases. Per discussion, the code does what we want, but
it really needs to be documented that these functions act differently
from regexp_matches.
that cached compiled patterns will still be there when the function is next
called. Clean up looping logic, thereby fixing bug identified by Pavel
Stehule. Share setup code between the two functions, add some comments, and
avoid risky mixing of int and size_t variables. Clean up the documentation a
tad, and accept all the flag characters mentioned in table 9-19 rather than
just a subset.
displayed in the postmaster log. This avoids Windows-specific problems with
localized time zone names that are in the wrong encoding, and generally seems
like a good idea to forestall other potential platform-dependent issues.
To preserve the existing behavior that all backends will log in the same time
zone, create a new GUC variable log_timezone that can only be changed on a
system-wide basis, and reference log-related calculations to that zone instead
of the TimeZone variable.
This fixes the issue reported by Hiroshi Saito that timestamps printed by
xlog.c startup could be improperly localized on Windows. We still need a
simpler patch for that problem in the back branches, however.
so that we will be able to create a cookie for all processes for CSVlogs.
It is set wherever MyProcPid is set. Take the opportunity to remove the now
unnecessary session-only restriction on the %s and %c escapes in log_line_prefix.
before reporting a transaction committed. Data consistency is still
guaranteed (unlike setting fsync = off), but a crash may lose the effects
of the last few transactions. Patch by Simon, some editorialization by Tom.
sugar for PL/PgSQL set-returning functions that want to return the result
of evaluating a query; it should also be more efficient than repeated
RETURN NEXT statements. Based on an earlier patch from Pavel Stehule.
and fsync WAL at convenient intervals. For the moment it just tries to
offload this work from backends, but soon it will be responsible for
guaranteeing a maximum delay before asynchronously-committed transactions
will be flushed to disk.
This is a portion of Simon Riggs' async-commit patch, committed to CVS
separately because a background WAL writer seems like it might be a good idea
independently of the async-commit feature. I rebased walwriter.c on
bgwriter.c because it seemed like a more appropriate way of handling signals;
while the startup/shutdown logic in postmaster.c is more like autovac because
we want walwriter to quit before we start the shutdown checkpoint.
I/O utilization, per discussion.
While at it, lower the autovacuum vacuum and analyze threshold values to 50
tuples. It is a bit higher (i.e. more conservative) than what I originally
proposed but much better than the old values for small tables.
