Release Notes:
|
|
Version 0.7 (as of 25 Feb, 2004)
|
|
- Added new version of dblink, dblink_exec, dblink_open, dblink_close,
|
|
and, dblink_fetch -- allows ERROR on remote side of connection to
|
|
throw NOTICE locally instead of ERROR
|
|
Version 0.6
|
|
- functions deprecated in 0.5 have been removed
|
|
- added ability to create "named" persistent connections
|
|
Version 0.5
|
|
- dblink now supports use directly as a table function; this is the new
|
|
preferred usage going forward
|
|
- Use of dblink_tok is now deprecated; original form of dblink is also
|
|
deprecated. They _will_ be removed in the next version.
|
|
- dblink_last_oid is also deprecated; use dblink_exec() which returns
|
|
the command status as a single row, single column result.
|
|
- Original dblink, dblink_tok, and dblink_last_oid are commented out in
|
|
dblink.sql; remove the comments to use the deprecated functions.
|
|
- dblink_strtok() and dblink_replace() functions were removed. Use
|
|
split() and replace() respectively (new backend functions in
|
|
PostgreSQL 7.3) instead.
|
|
- New functions: dblink_exec() for non-SELECT queries; dblink_connect()
|
|
opens connection that persists for duration of a backend;
|
|
dblink_disconnect() closes a persistent connection; dblink_open()
|
|
opens a cursor; dblink_fetch() fetches results from an open cursor.
|
|
dblink_close() closes a cursor.
|
|
- New test suite: dblink_check.sh, dblink.test.sql,
|
|
dblink.test.expected.out. Execute dblink_check.sh from the same
|
|
directory as the other two files. Output is dblink.test.out and
|
|
dblink.test.diff. Note that dblink.test.sql is a good source
|
|
of example usage.
|
|
|
|
Version 0.4
|
|
- removed cursor wrap around input sql to allow for remote
|
|
execution of INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE
|
|
- dblink now returns a resource id instead of a real pointer
|
|
- added several utility functions -- see below
|
|
|
|
Version 0.3
|
|
- fixed dblink invalid pointer causing corrupt elog message
|
|
- fixed dblink_tok improper handling of null results
|
|
- fixed examples in README.dblink
|
|
|
|
Version 0.2
|
|
- initial release
|
|
|
|
