Arbitrary addition of a comment line to get ownership of file in the
cvs tree. Am trying to fix the permissions to allow file execution,
since I had damaged the permissions when transferring in with ftp.

Centralized shared-library build knowledge in a new file,
src/Makefile.shlib. Updated all the makefiles that try to build shlibs
to include that file instead of having duplicate (and mostly incomplete)
copies of shared-library options. It works on HPUX, a lot better than it
did before in fact, but there's a chance I broke some other platforms.
At least now you only have to fix one place not six...

Clean up shared makefile install procedures.
Get the permissions right, don't overwrite real files with symlinks, etc.
plpgsql and odbc still aren't fully up to speed, but at least they don't crash and burn...

Use AC_CONFIG_HEADER as documented by Autoconf manual: call it
only once at the top of the file. I'm surprised include/config.h wasn't
being overwritten from interfaces/odbc/config.h.in ...

The TCL/TK configuration cleanup patches I submitted have the following
problem:
'tclsh' still had to be found even if --with-libs (or
--with-libraries) was
specified to configure.
--with-libs is really an overloaded option. It really should only be used
to specify additions directories to search in order to file needed
libraries. It was also being used to locate the *Config.sh files.

Still another round of Perl-module installation tweaks.
Now, src/interfaces/perl5/Makefile.PL is pretty simple, and instead we
work a little harder in src/interfaces/Makefile.

Add code to pltcl's Makefile to cope with the situation where
libtcl has been installed as a non-shared library. pltcl cannot be
built in that situation; we want to do nothing and let the overall Postgres
build complete, rather than failing.

The problem is that read_pg_options needs DataDir to read its file but
DataDir is set after read_pg_options if postgres is called
interactively. If postgres is forked by postgres DataDir is read from
the PGDATA enviromnent variable set by the postmaster and this explains
while the bug disappears. I have written this patch but I don't like
it. Any better idea?

I have included a couple of patches that will make postgres
compile out of the tar file on Solaris with the SUN 5.0 compilers.
These compilers will be needed if you wan to compile the libpg++
interface without using the gcc/g++. The SC4.2 compilers do not
understand the string class.
The first patch changes the ecpg intermediate shared library
name from *.sho to *.sho.o so that the SUN compiler will
allow it to be used in conjunction with the -o option.
Add mention of the SERIAL data type.
Change claim of "no limit" on maximum date for datetime type to
more realistic 1465001 AD. Thanks Tatsuo for pointing this out :)
Clean up markup.
Chapter on indices intended for the User's Guide.
Currently not included in the UG, and this now only has a discussion of
partial indices by Paul Aoki culled from the mailing lists.
But, didn't want to loose it...
Clean up library names and installation paths.
Include soft links in the installation directory for major version number.
Use the existing $(DLSUFFIX) parameter to name shared library.
Add Taral's test for flags required by the detected cpp program to read
from stdin. Necessary at least for systems missing cpp but having gcc -E.
Include new configured file backend/catalog/genbki.sh.
Allow TIMESTAMP as a column name or general identifier.
timestamp had become a token a while ago, but had been omitted from the
keywords.c until recently. This uncovered the omission in the ColId decl.

I changed configure.in, pqcomm.c, config.h.in, and fe-connect.c.
Also I had to install flex because lex did not want to translate pgc.l.

This is plain wrong, but check to see if DataDir was set *before* running
read_pg_options ... read_pg_options should probably be moved to after the
getopt() instead?

change configure so that if postgresql isn't being installed as root,
do not configure in the perl5 interface.
the perl5 interface needs to be installed under /usr/local/lib/perl5/*, which
is generally owned by root. This allows a non-root build/install with the
only root requirement being the make/install of hte perl5 stuff...

This patch updates the ImageViewer example to use Multiple Threading.
When importing an image into the database, the example now fires off a
new
Thread, which imports the image in the background. This also means that
the application doesn't freeze on the user, and they can still browse
the
images in the database, while the upload is running.
This now makes the ImageViewer a true example on how to use Threads (the
threadtest class is just that - a test).
Clean up markup.
Add new bibliographic references from Paul Aoki.
Include libpq++ docs from the old man page in the Programmer's Guide.
Update Unix installation info for ODBC.
