 Fixed.

 I found new bug in command/variable.c in parse_client_encoding(), nobody
probably never see this error:

if (pg_set_client_encoding(encoding))
{
elog(ERROR, "Conversion between %s and %s is not supported",
                     value, GetDatabaseEncodingName());
}

because pg_set_client_encoding() returns -1 for error and 0 as true.
It's fixed too.

 IMHO it can be apply.

Bruce Momjian [Thu, 6 Sep 2001 03:20:30 +0000 (03:20 +0000)]
Attached is a patch for JDBC's getColumn() function that was broken /
flawed in the following ways:

1. Only returned columns that had a default value defined, rather than all
columns in a table
2. Used 2 * N + 1 queries to find out attributes, comments and typenames
for N columns.

By using some outer join syntax it is possible to retrieve all necessary
information in just one SQL statement. This means this version is only
suitable for PostgreSQL >= 7.1. Don't know whether that's a problem.

I've tested this function with current sources and 7.1.3 and patched both
jdbc1 and jdbc2. I haven't compiled nor tested the jdbc1 version though, as
I have no JDK 1.1 available.

Note the discussion in http://fts.postgresql.org/db/mw/msg.html?mid=1029626
regarding differences in obtaining comments on database object in 7.1 and
7.2. I was unable to use the following syntax (or similar ones):

select
     ...,
     description
from
     ...
     left outer join col_description(a.attrelid, a.attnum) description
order by
     c.relname, a.attnum;

(the error was parse error at or near '(') so I had to paste the actual
code for the col_description function into the left outer join. Maybe
someone who is more knowledgable about outer joins might provide me with a

Attached is my attempt to clean up the horrors of the ExecSQL() method in
the JDBC driver.

I've done this by extracting it into a new method object called
QueryExecutor (should go into org/postgresql/core/) and then taking it
apart into different methods in that class.

A short summary:

* Extracted ExecSQL() from Connection into a method object called
  QueryExecutor.

* Moved ReceiveFields() from Connection to QueryExecutor.

* Extracted parts of the original ExecSQL() method body into smaller
  methods on QueryExecutor.

* Bug fix: The instance variable "pid" in Connection was used in two

23 years agoAttached is a patch for current CVS, consisting of a cvs diff -c
Bruce Momjian [Thu, 6 Sep 2001 03:11:59 +0000 (03:11 +0000)]
Attached is a patch for current CVS, consisting of a cvs diff -c
for the changed files and a few new files:
- test/jdbc2/BatchExecuteTest.java
- util/MessageTranslator.java
- jdbc2/PBatchUpdateException.java

As an aside, is this the best way to submit a patch consisting
of both changed and new files? Or is there a smarter cvs command
which gets them all in one patch file?

This patch fixes batch processing in the JDBC driver to be
JDBC-2 compliant. Specifically, the changes introduced by this
patch are:

1) Statement.executeBatch() no longer commits or rolls back a
transaction, as this is not prescribed by the JDBC spec. Its up
to the application to disable autocommit and to commit or
rollback the transaction. Where JDBC talks about "executing the
statements as a unit", it means executing the statements in one
round trip to the backend for better performance, it does not
mean executing the statements in a transaction.

2) Statement.executeBatch() now throws a BatchUpdateException()
as required by the JDBC spec. The significance of this is that
the receiver of the exception gets the updateCounts of the
commands that succeeded before the error occurred. In order for
the messages to be translatable, java.sql.BatchUpdateException
is extended by org.postgresql.jdbc2.PBatchUpdateException() and
the localization code is factored out from
org.postgresql.util.PSQLException to a separate singleton class
org.postgresql.util.MessageTranslator.

3) When there is no batch or there are 0 statements in the batch
when Statement.executeBatch() is called, do not throw an
SQLException, but silently do nothing and return an update count
array of length 0. The JDBC spec says "Throws an SQLException if
the driver does not support batch statements", which is clearly
not the case. See testExecuteEmptyBatch() in
BatchExecuteTest.java for an example. The message
postgresql.stat.batch.empty is removed from the language
specific properties files.

4) When Statement.executeBatch() is performed, reset the
statement's list of batch commands to empty. The JDBC spec isn't
100% clear about this. This behaviour is only documented in the
Java tutorial
(http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/jdbc/jdbc2dot0/batchupdates.html).
Note that the Oracle JDBC driver also resets the statement's
list in executeBatch(), and this seems the most reasonable
interpretation.

5) A new test case is added to the JDBC test suite which tests
various aspects of batch processing. See the new file
BatchExecuteTest.java.

I believe that the attached patch is the correct solution --  I apologize
for the gyrations.  With the attached patch, Cygwin libpq++ builds
cleanly again.  The root cause was that DLLIMPORT was defaulting to
__declspec(dllimport) since BUILDING_DLL was *not* defined when building
the libpq++ DLL.

Unfortunately, to test my patch requires changing the following makefile:

    src/interfaces/libpq++/examples/Makefile

and the #includes in all of the *.cc to build against the source tree
instead of the following hardcoded installation directory structure:

    /usr/local/pgsql

I was able to manually build

    src/interfaces/libpq++/examples/testlibpq0.exe

against my Cygwin libpq++ without errors.  However, I have not tried to
actually test testlibpq0.exe.

Is this sufficient?  Or, do you want me to clean up libpq++/examples too?
(Or, is it silly to even ask? :,))  Let me know how you want to proceed and
I will submit a patch to pgsql-patches.

23 years agoThe attached file: SerializePatch2.tgz, contains a patch for
Bruce Momjian [Sun, 26 Aug 2001 00:54:42 +0000 (00:54 +0000)]
The attached file: SerializePatch2.tgz, contains a patch for
org.postgresql.util.Serialize and org.postgresql.jdbc2.PreparedStatement
that  fixes the ability to "serialize" a simple java class into a
postgres table.

The current cvs seems completely broken in this support, so the patch
puts it  into working condition, granted that there are many limitations
with  serializing java classes into Postgres.

The code to do serialize appears to have been in the driver since
Postgres  6.4, according to some comments in the source.  My code is not
adding any  totally new ability to the driver, rather just fixing what
is there so that  it actually is usable.  I do not think that it should
affect any existing  functions of the driver that people regularly
depend on.

The code is activated if you use jdbc2.PreparedStatement and try to
setObject  some java class type that is unrecognized, like not String or
not some other  primitive type.  This will cause a sequence of function
calls that results in  an instance of Serialize being instantiated for
the class type passed.  The  Serialize constructor will query pg_class
to see if it can find an existing  table that matches the name of the
java class. If found, it will continue and  try to use the table to
store the object, otherwise an SQL exception is  thrown and no harm is
done.  Serialize.create() has to be used to setup the  table for a java
class before anything can really happen with this code other  than an
SQLException (unless by some freak chance a table exists that it  thinks
it can use).

I saw a difference in Serialize.java between 7.1.3 and 7.2devel that I
didn't  notice before, so I had to redo my changes from the 7.2devel
version (why I  had to resend this patch now).  I was missing the
fixString stuff, which is  nice and is imporant to ensure the inserts
will not fail due to embedded  single quote or unescaped backslashes. I
changed that fixString function in  Serialize just a little since there
is no need to muddle with escaping  newlines: only escaping single quote
and literal backslashes is needed.  Postgres appears to insert newlines
within strings without trouble.

open pg_log; among other things, OverrideTransactionSystem goes away),
