Tom Lane [Fri, 16 Feb 2001 03:16:58 +0000 (03:16 +0000)]
Clean up two rather nasty bugs in operator selection code.

1. If there is exactly one pg_operator entry of the right name and oprkind,
oper() and related routines would return that entry whether its input type
had anything to do with the request or not.  This is just premature
optimization: we shouldn't return the single candidate until after we verify
that it really is a valid candidate, ie, is at least coercion-compatible
with the given types.

2. oper() and related routines only promise a coercion-compatible result.
Unfortunately, there were quite a few callers that assumed the returned
operator is binary-compatible with the given datatype; they would proceed
to call it without making any datatype coercions.  These callers include
sorting, grouping, aggregation, and VACUUM ANALYZE.  In general I think
it is appropriate for these callers to require an exact or binary-compatible
match, so I've added a new routine compatible_oper() that only succeeds if
it can find an operator that doesn't require any run-time conversions.
Callers now call oper() or compatible_oper() depending on whether they are
prepared to deal with type conversion or not.

The upshot of these bugs is revealed by the following silliness in PL/Tcl's
selftest: it creates an operator @< on int4, and then tries to use it to
sort a char(N) column.  The system would let it do that :-( (and evidently
has done so since 6.3 :-( :-().  The result in this case was just a silly
sort order, but the reverse combination would've provoked coredump from
trying to dereference integers.  With this fix you get more reasonable
behavior:

23 years agoAdd casting for numeric/float4/float8 type value
Hiroshi Inoue [Fri, 16 Feb 2001 03:10:09 +0000 (03:10 +0000)]
Add casting for numeric/float4/float8 type value
automatically to compensate the lack of automatic
conversion functionality of PostgreSQL server.
For example if there's a numeric type binding
   1.2567 --> 1.2567::numeric.
I hope this change would enable the use of numeric
type in MS-Access etc.
