* Add RESET CONNECTION command to reset all session state
This would include resetting of all variables (RESET ALL), dropping of
- all temporary tables, removal of any NOTIFYs, cursors, prepared
- queries(?), currval()s, etc. This could be used for connection pooling.
- We could also change RESET ALL to have this functionality.
+ temporary tables, removing any NOTIFYs, cursors, open transactions,
+ prepared queries, currval()s, etc. This could be used for connection
+ pooling. We could also change RESET ALL to have this functionality.
+ The difficult of this features is allowing RESET ALL to not affect
+ changes made by the interface driver for its internal use. One idea is
+ for this to be a protocol-only feature. Another approach is to notify
+ the protocol when a RESET CONNECTION command is used.
* Allow FOR UPDATE queries to do NOWAIT locks
* Add GUC to issue notice about queries that use unjoined tables
