The SQL standard says that OVERLAPS should have a two-element row constructor on each side. The original coding of OVERLAPS support in our grammar attempted to extend that by allowing a single-element row constructor, which it internally duplicated ... or tried to, anyway. But that code has certainly not worked since our List infrastructure was rewritten in 2004, and I'm none too sure it worked before that. As it stands, it ends up building a List that includes itself, leading to assorted undesirable behaviors later in the parser. Even if it worked as intended, it'd be a bit evil because of the possibility of duplicate evaluation of a volatile function that the user had written only once. Given the lack of documentation, test cases, or complaints, let's just get rid of the idea and only support the standard syntax. While we're at it, improve the error cursor positioning for the wrong-number-of-arguments errors, and inline the makeOverlaps() function since it's only called in one place anyway. Per bug #9227 from Joshua Yanovski. Initial patch by Joshua Yanovski, extended a bit by me. |

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
