Bruce Momjian [Thu, 2 Sep 2004 01:03:59 +0000 (01:03 +0000)]
This patch attempts to fix the issue with localized timezones on
Windows.

Recap: When running on a localized windows version, the timezone name
returned is also localized, and therefor does not match our lookup
table.

Solution: The registry contains both the name of the timezone in english
and the localized name. The patch adds code to scan the registry for the
localized name and gets the english name from that, and then rescans the
table.

I have tested this on a Swedish WinXP, and it works without problems.
The registry layout is the same in Win2k, but I haven't specifically
tested it. It's also the same on different languages but again only
Swedish is tested.

Bruce Momjian [Sat, 28 Aug 2004 23:26:37 +0000 (23:26 +0000)]
The attached patch improves pg_ctl's win32 service code to eliminate
some possible causes of the stale postmaster.pid problem that some users
have reported.

- The service did not properly report that it accepts
SERVICE_CONTROL_SHUTDOWN events, thus it's possible the SCM simply
killed the postmaster on shutdown.

- 'WaitHints' are now given to the SCM to prevent it timing out if
pg_ctl doesn't respond to a control event quickly enough.

- During shutdown, the service checkpoint counter is incremented every
five seconds for up to a minute to prevent the SCM timing out and
assuming the service is not responding.

Revise ResourceOwner code to avoid accumulating ResourceOwner objects

multiple acquisitions of the same lock in order to fix it.  But it's a
