+ release tomorrow.
+
+2001-05-04 19:11 tgl
+
+ * doc/src/sgml/runtime.sgml: COMMIT_DELAY and COMMIT_SIBLINGS were
+ missing from the list of WAL configuration parameters in chapter 3.
+
+2001-05-04 18:01 tgl
+
+ * src/backend/parser/Makefile: Makefile should have automatic
+ dependency for parser.o too, if it's going to have any at all.
+
+2001-05-04 14:39 tgl
+
+ * src/backend/access/transam/xact.c: Seems like we should not hold
+ off cancel/die interrupts while we are running deferred triggers.
+ They are really part of the regular transaction, and they could
+ take awhile.
+
+2001-05-03 22:54 momjian
+
+ * doc/src/sgml/runtime.sgml: Add missing tag.

+
+ * src/: backend/utils/adt/datetime.c,
+ backend/utils/adt/formatting.c, backend/utils/adt/timestamp.c,
+ include/utils/datetime.h: Consolidate several near-identical uses
+ of mktime() into a single routine DetermineLocalTimeZone(). In
+ that routine, be more wary of broken mktime() implementations than
+ the original code was: don't allow mktime to change the already-set
+ y/m/d/h/m/s information, and don't use tm_gmtoff if mktime failed.
+ Possibly this will resolve some of the complaints we've been
+ hearing from users of Middle Eastern timezones on RedHat.

+ src/backend/utils/mb/Unicode/utf8_to_KOI8.map,
+ src/include/mb/pg_wchar.h, src/interfaces/odbc/multibyte.h: BTW it

+ test/regress/expected/timestamp.out: Ensure that btree sort
+ ordering functions and boolean comparison operators give consistent
+ results for all datatypes. Types float4, float8, and numeric were
+ broken for NaN values; abstime, timestamp, and interval were broken
+ for INVALID values; timetz was just plain broken (some possible
+ pairs of values were neither < nor = nor >). Also clean up text,
+ bpchar, varchar, and bit/varbit to eliminate duplicate code and
+ thereby reduce the probability of similar inconsistencies arising
+ in the future.

+ Frank Wegmann

+ BSD/OS-specific table.
+
+2001-05-02 10:46 momjian

+
+ * src/interfaces/odbc/win32.mak: Previous commit mistakenly
+ converted all newlines to DOS style (CR/LF). Convert back to Unix
+ style --- it seems some versions of nmake insist on this.

+ preproc.y.
+
+2001-04-30 21:36 thomas
+
+ * src/backend/parser/gram.y: Allow a string argument to the
+ EXTRACT() function. This is an extension to the SQL9x standard,
+ but is consistant with usage of the underlying date_part()
+ function used to implement it. Example: EXTRACT('YEAR',...) No
+ impact on regression tests.
+
+2001-04-30 20:47 inoue
+
+ * src/interfaces/odbc/: parse.c, psqlodbc.h, psqlodbc.rc,
+ qresult.c: 1) fix bugs reported by Andrea Aime. 2) fix a bug

+ markup.
+
+2001-04-30 16:05 tgl
+
+ * src/pl/plpgsql/src/pl_exec.c: exec_move_row() should be more
+ forgiving of tuples with a different number of columns than it was
+ expecting, for reasons that are now documented in the code...
+
+2001-04-30 15:24 tgl
+
+ * src/backend/optimizer/plan/planner.c: Suppress pull-up of
+ subqueries that are in the nullable side of an outer join. This is
+ needed to avoid improper evaluation of expressions that should be
+ nulled out, as in Victor Wagner's bug report of 4/27/01. Pretty
+ ugly solution, but no time to do anything better for 7.1.1.
+
+2001-04-30 13:38 momjian
+
+ * doc/src/sgml/: libpq++.sgml, libpq.sgml: Break up PQexec() result

+ reorganized.

+ ratified as yet. This is certainly no longer true, it wasn't even
+ true in Q2/1998 when I did a little research for Date's book.
+ SQL/PSM had been published on 1996-12-15 as ISO/IEC 9075:4. So you

+ building a btree index on the regress tests' abstime_tbl.)
+
+2001-04-25 18:04 tgl
+
+ * src/backend/optimizer/path/costsize.c: Tweak nestloop costing to
+ weight restart cost of inner path more heavily. Without this, it
+ was making some pretty silly decisions about whether an expensive
+ sub-SELECT should be the inner or outer side of a join...

+
+2001-04-22 21:41 inoue
+
+ * src/interfaces/odbc/: columninfo.c, connection.c, convert.c,

+ useful, but just because it's useless doesn't mean pg_dump should
+ coredump.)
+
+2001-04-21 14:29 tgl
+
+ * src/backend/: main/main.c, utils/init/findbe.c,
+ utils/init/postinit.c: Remove useless setuid() call, instead add a

+ pghackers discussion.
+
+2001-04-21 07:23 petere
+
+ * src/bin/pg_ctl/pg_ctl.sh: Make sure that the postmaster options

+ dequoted. Also, always pass an explicit -D option to postmaster,
+ don't rely on it being set in postmaster.opts.
+

+ charset.sgml, docguide.sgml, func.sgml, geqo.sgml, libpgeasy.sgml,
+ mvcc.sgml, user-manag.sgml: Final markup for 7.1 hardcopy release.
+ Mostly typo and table-fitting adjustments. Note that many tables
+ are being abused with *really* long description columns. Should
+ probably shrink those columns to be more concise, and move some of
+ the info to follow-on reference notes.
+
+2001-04-20 11:50 thomas
+
+ * doc/src/sgml/fixrtf: Add option --refentry to change \keepn (keep
+ with next paragraph) to \keep (keep current paragraph together).
+ This fixes most troubles with reference pages marked up with
+ <refentry> tags. Use on reference.rtf, generated by "make
+ reference.rtf".

+
+ * configure, configure.in: Remove libsfio check.
+
+2001-04-19 15:17 petere

+
+ Reported by <VASQUEZ_JASON@LILLY.COM>.

+ declaration, per bug report from <info@decc.nl>.
+
+2001-04-19 15:01 petere
+
+ * src/backend/utils/adt/varchar.c: Fix "off by VARHDRSZ" bug in
+ (Cyrillic) recode support.
+
+2001-04-19 00:29 tgl
+
+ * src/backend/executor/execQual.c: Kluge solution for Alex
+ Pilosov's report of problems with whole-tuple function arguments in
+ join queries: copy the tuples into TransactionCommandContext so
+ they don't get recycled too soon. This is horrid, but not any
+ worse than 7.0 or before, which also leaked such tuples until end
+ of query. A proper fix will require allowing tuple datums to be
+ physically stored inside larger tuple datums, which opens up a
+ bunch of issues that can't realistically be solved for 7.1.1.
+

+ * src/backend/utils/mb/wchar.c: Add a crash gurard to
+ pg_encoding_mblen in case of an invalid encoding given.

+2001-04-18 18:25 tgl
+
+ * src/backend/parser/parse_func.c: Further tweaking of error
+ messages for cases involving attributes & functions of join or
+ subselect aliases. It'd be awfully nice if this code knew for sure
+ whether it was dealing with 'x.f' or 'f(x)' syntax; maybe we can
+ fix that in a future cycle.
+
+2001-04-18 16:53 petere
+
+ * src/bin/psql/command.c: Repair misbehavior of \! with immediately

+ Dave Page.
+
+2001-04-16 20:32 tgl
+
+ * src/backend/rewrite/rewriteHandler.c: Add some defenses to guard
+ against case where a rule refers to a table or view that's been
+ dropped and then recreated with the same name (but, perhaps,
+ different columns). Eventually we'd like to support this but for
+ now all we can do is fail cleanly, rather than possibly coredumping
+ if we proceed using the obsolete rule.
+
+2001-04-16 15:44 tgl
+
+ * src/backend/optimizer/plan/initsplan.c: Avoid reversing
+ user-given order of WHERE clauses while attaching clauses to
+ specific base or join RelOptInfo nodes during planning. This
+ preserves the more-intuitive behavior of 7.0.* --- if you write an
+ expensive clause (such as a sub-select) last, it should get
+ evaluated last. Someday we ought to try to have some intelligence
+ about the order of evaluation of WHERE clauses, but for now we
+ should not override what the user wrote.

+
+ * src/backend/libpq/pqformat.c: Remove error report from
+ pq_endmessage when pq_putmessage fails. The only possible failure
+ is in pq_flush, which will log a (better!) report anyway --- so
+ pq_endmessage is just cluttering the log with a redundant entry.
+ This matters when a client crashes partway through a large query,

+ reverse-compiled into targetlist index numbers, because that's the
+ only interpretation the parser allows for a constant in these
+ clauses. (Ergo, the only way they could have gotten into the list
+ in the first place is to have come from the targetlist; so this
+ should always work.) Per problem report from Peter E.

+
+ * src/backend/optimizer/path/joinpath.c: Prevent generation of
+ invalid plans for RIGHT or FULL joins with multiple join clauses.
+ The mergejoin executor wants all the join clauses to appear as
+ merge quals, not as extra joinquals, for these kinds of joins. But
+ the planner would consider plans in which partially-sorted input
+ paths were used, leading to only some of the join clauses becoming
+ merge quals. This is fine for inner/left joins, not fine for
+ right/full joins.
