Details:

1) The driver correctly provided DatabaseMetaData about the sort
order of NULLs. This was confirmed by Peter Eisentraut on
pgsql-hackers. I fixed the test to accept/require the current
behaviour, and made it dependent on the backend version. See
nullsAreSortedAtStart(), nullsAreSortedAtEnd(),
nullsAreSortedHigh() and nullsAreSortedLow().

2) DatabaseMetaData.supportsOrderByUnrelated() correctly
returned true (an ORDER BY clause can contain columns that are
not in the SELECT clause), but the test case required false.
Fixed that.

3) Replaced deprecated assert() of junit.framework.TestCase by
assertEquals(), assertTrue() and assertNotNull(). This is
because assert will be a new keyword in Java 1.4.

4) Replaced assert(message,false) by the more elegant
fail(message).

23 years agoAttached is a patch to add bytea support to JDBC.
Bruce Momjian [Mon, 10 Sep 2001 15:07:05 +0000 (15:07 +0000)]
Attached is a patch to add bytea support to JDBC.

This patch does the following:

- Adds binary datatype support (bytea)
- Changes getXXXStream()/setXXXStream() methods to be spec compliant
- Adds ability to revert to old behavior

Details:

Adds support for the binary type bytea.  The ResultSet.getBytes() and
PreparedStatement.setBytes() methods now work against columns of bytea
type.  This is a change in behavior from the previous code which assumed
the column type was OID and thus a LargeObject.  The new behavior is
more complient with the JDBC spec as BLOB/CLOB are to be used for
LargeObjects and the getBytes()/setBytes() methods are for the databases
binary datatype (which is bytea in postgres).

Changes the behavior of the getBinaryStream(), getAsciiStream(),
getCharacterStream(), getUnicodeStream() and their setXXXStream()
counterparts.  These methos now work against either the bytea type
(BinaryStream) or the text types (AsciiStream, CharacterStream,
UnicodeStream).  The previous behavior was that these all assumed the
underlying column was of type OID and thus a LargeObject.  The
spec/javadoc for these methods indicate that they are for LONGVARCHAR
and LONGVARBINARY datatypes, which are distinct from the BLOB/CLOB
datatypes.  Given that the bytea and text types support upto 1G, they
are the LONGVARBINARY and LONGVARCHAR datatypes in postgres.

Added support for turning off the above new functionality.  Given that
the changes above are not backwardly compatible (however they are more
spec complient), I added the ability to revert back to the old behavior.
  The Connection now takes an optional parameter named 'compatible'.  If
the value of '7.1' is passed, the driver reverts to the 7.1 behavior.
If the parameter is not passed or the value '7.2' is passed the behavior
is the new behavior.  The mechanism put in place can be used in the
future when/if similar needs arise to change behavior.  This is
patterned after how Oracle does this (i.e. Oracle has a 'compatible'
parameter that behaves in a similar manner).

Misc fixes.  Cleaned up a few things I encountered along the way.

Note that in testing the patch I needed to ignore whitespace differences
in order to get it to apply cleanly (i.e. patch -l -i byteapatch.diff).
Also this patch introduces a new file
(src/interfaces/jdbc/org/postgresql/util/PGbytea.java).

This was introduced by Jeroen's patch (see
http://fts.postgresql.org/db/mw/msg.html?mid=1032468). Attached
is a patch that returns getColumns() to using "select
obj_description()" instead of direct access to pg_description,
as per the request by Tom.

I've incorporated Jeroen's fix to left outer join with
pg_attrdef instead of inner join, so getColumns() also returns
columns without a default value.

I have, however, not included Jeroen's attempt to combine
multiple queries into one huge multi-join query for better
performance, because:
1) I don't know how to do that using obj_description() instead
of direct access to pg_description
2) I don't think a performance improvement (if any) in this
method is very important

Because of the outer join, getColumns() will only work with a
backend >= 7.1. Since the conditional coding for 7.1/7.2 and
jdbc1/jdbc2 is already giving me headaches I didn't pursue a
pre-7.1 solution.

test assumed that setting the transaction isolation level would

worked with pre-7.1 behaviour, when the JDBC driver set the
isolation level in every transaction, instead of using "set
session characteristics". Anyway, now it works with a backend
built from current CVS and the behaviour is JDBC compliant.

Attached is a patch that fixes 2 test cases of the JDBC test
suite. This reduces the number of failures from 9 to 7.

Both ConnectionTest and JBuilderTest did not create their own
tables, which caused these test cases to fail with "relation ...
does not exist". It appears these test cases relied on tables
created by the example code elsewhere in the source tree. I've
added the necessary "create table" and "drop table" statements
to the test cases, using the column definitions from the example
code.

While working on that I modified the helper method createTable
in JDBC2Tests.java to take a table parameter, rather than using
table names passed via the properties in build.xml. I'm not sure
what that was good for, and in fact, except for the default
table name "jdbctest", this functionality wasn't used at all.

Yes, it seems broken. It is a bug in libpgtcl.  Are you running Tcl >= 8.3.2?
That's when the Tcl team changed the data structure for channel
callbacks.  The change itself was designed to be backward compatible, but I
suspect a related change made the code more sensitive to errors in the
structure (NULL pointers where functions are required).  Either that, or
nobody has tried to use libpgtcl with COPY in a long time.

First, I have to say I can't think of a good reason to use PostgreSQL's
COPY command from a Tcl application. I think it should only be used with
psql for importing data from another source into PostgreSQL, or for
exporting PostgreSQL data into another database (but why would anyone do
that?) If it was me, I would stick with SELECT and INSERT and be "SQL
Compliant".

OK, editorial is over. Try applying the patch below to fix
      src/interfaces/libpgtcl/pgtclId.c
and let us know if it works. I did little testing on it, but my test did
segfault before and ran fine (copy in and copy out) after the patch.  This
is for PostgreSQL-7.1.2 - since you are running older 7.0, I don't know if
this will work, but I suspect it will.

PS It's the absence of PgWatchProc which kills it. I didn't upgrade it
to the "V2" channel type structure, so it should be compatible with older
Tcl's. But aside from gets and puts, I doubt any other file operations
would work on the handle during a copy.
