* The ability to index more than one column in a table with a single trigger. * All uses of sprintf changed to snprintf to prevent users from crashing Postgres. * Error messages made more consistent * Some changes made to bring it into line with coding requirements for triggers specified in the docs. (ie. check you're a trigger before casting your context) * The perl script that generate indices has been updated to support indexing multiple columns in a table. * Fairly well tested in our development environment indexing a food database's brand and description fields. The size of the fti index is around 300,000 rows. * All docs and examples upgraded. This includes specifying more efficient index usage that was specified before, better examples that don't produce duplicates, etc. Christopher Kings-Lynne & Brett |

The PostgreSQL contrib tree --------------------------- This subtree contains tools, modules, and examples that are not maintained as part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly because they only address a limited audience or are too inelegant to be sold as an official feature. That, however, does not preclude their usefulness. Each subdirectory contains a README file with information about the module. Most items can be built with `gmake all' and installed with `gmake install' in the usual fashion, after you have run the `configure' script in the top-level directory. Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or types. After you have installed the files you need to register the new entities in the database system by running the commands in the supplied .sql file. For example, $ psql -d dbname -f module.sql See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this procedure.
