[ Newest version of patch applied.]

This patch is an updated version of the lock listing patch. I've made
the following changes:

    - write documentation
    - wrap the SRF in a view called 'pg_locks': all user-level
      access should be done through this view
    - re-diff against latest CVS

One thing I chose not to do is adapt the SRF to use the anonymous
composite type code from Joe Conway. I'll probably do that eventually,
but I'm not really convinced it's a significantly cleaner way to
bootstrap SRF builtins than the method this patch uses (of course, it
has other uses...)

Bruce Momjian [Sat, 17 Aug 2002 12:19:31 +0000 (12:19 +0000)]
What I have done for libpgtcl:
Everytime if I do PQconsumeInput (when the backend channel gets
readable) I check for the return value. (0 == error) and generate a
notification manually, e.g. fixed string connection_closed) and pass it to the
TCL event queue. The only other thing I had to do is to comment out removing
all pending events in PgStopNotifyEventSource whenever the connection was
unexpectedly closed (so the manually generated event will not be deleted).

A broken backend connection triggers a notify event to the client (fixed
notification string "connection_closed") so proper action can be taken to switch
to another database server etc. Remember that this is event driven. If you have
applications, that have idle database connections most of the time, you'll get
immediate feedback of a dying server. Upon connection to the server issue a
pg_notify for notify event "connection_closed" and whenever the backend crashes
(which it does do in very very rare cases) you get an event driven recovery. (of
course the Tcl-Event loop has to be processed). Issuing a notification
"connection_closed" on a still working database could be used for switching to
another db-server (which I've actually impelemented right now).
