explanations.

o fmtId() returns pointer to a static memory in it. In the meantime
there is a line where is fmtId() called twice without saving the
first value returned by fmtId(). So second call to fmtId() will
break the first one.

o findTableByName() looks up a table by its name. if a table name
contanins upper letters or non ascii chars, fmtId() will returns
a name quoted in double quotes, which will not what findTableByName()
wants. The result is SEG fault.  -- Tatsuo Ishii t-ishii@sra.co.jp

automatic install programs (and interested users) can determine
the version of the file.  The file is currently set as "prerelease".
Before the release, somebody should change the line "FILEFLAGS
VS_FF_PRERELEASE" to "FILEFLAGS 0".  That information should probably
go into toos\RELEASE_CHANGES.

Hi all,

    I  don't know if this is really related to the initdb problem

    it  fixes  a  damn  problem  during  index tuple insertion on
    CREATE TABLE into pg_attribute_relid_attnum_index.

    Anyway - this bug was really hard to find. During startup the
    relcache  reads  in  some  prepared  information  about index
    strategies from a file and then  reinitializes  the  function
    pointers  inside  the  scanKey data.  But for sake it assumed
    single attribute index tuples (hasn't that changed recently).
    Thus not all the strategies scanKey entries where initialized
    properly,  resulting  in  invalid  addresses  for  the  btree
    comparision functions.

    With  the  patch  at  the  end  the  regression  tests passed
    excellent except for the sanity_check that crashed at  vacuum
    and the misc test where the select unique1 from onek2 outputs

Bruce Momjian [Mon, 24 Aug 1998 01:38:11 +0000 (01:38 +0000)]
This  is the final state of the rule system for 6.4 after the
    patch is applied:

Rewrite rules on relation level work fine now.

Event qualifications on insert/update/delete  rules  work
fine now.

I  added  the  new  keyword  OLD to reference the CURRENT
tuple. CURRENT will be removed in 6.5.

Update rules can  reference  NEW  and  OLD  in  the  rule
qualification and the actions.

Insert/update/delete rules on views can be established to
let them behave like real tables.

For  insert/update/delete  rules  multiple  actions   are
supported  now.   The  actions  can also be surrounded by
parantheses to make psql  happy.   Multiple  actions  are
required if update to a view requires updates to multiple
tables.

Regular users  are  permitted  to  create/drop  rules  on
tables     they     have     RULE     permissions     for
(DefineQueryRewrite() is  now  able  to  get  around  the
access  restrictions  on  pg_rewrite).  This enables view
creation for regular users too. This  required  an  extra
boolean  parameter  to  pg_parse_and_plan() that tells to
set skipAcl on all rangetable entries  of  the  resulting
queries.       There      is      a      new     function
pg_exec_query_acl_override()  that  could  be   used   by
backend utilities to use this facility.

All rule actions (not only views) inherit the permissions
of the event relations  owner.  Sample:  User  A  creates
tables    T1    and    T2,   creates   rules   that   log
INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE on T1 in T2 (like in the  regression
tests  for rules I created) and grants ALL but RULE on T1
to user B.  User B  can  now  fully  access  T1  and  the
logging  happens  in  T2.  But user B cannot access T2 at
all, only the rule actions can. And due to  missing  RULE
permissions on T1, user B cannot disable logging.

Rules  on  the  attribute  level are disabled (they don't
work properly and since regular users are  now  permitted
to create rules I decided to disable them).

Rules  on  select  must have exactly one action that is a
select (so select rules must be a view definition).

UPDATE NEW/OLD rules  are  disabled  (still  broken,  but
triggers can do it).

There are two new system views (pg_rule and pg_view) that
show the definition of the rules or views so the db admin
can  see  what  the  users do. They use two new functions
pg_get_ruledef() and pg_get_viewdef() that are  builtins.

The functions pg_get_ruledef() and pg_get_viewdef() could
be used to implement rule and view support in pg_dump.

PostgreSQL is now the only database system I  know,  that
has rewrite rules on the query level. All others (where I
found a  rule  statement  at  all)  use  stored  database
procedures  or  the  like  (triggers as we call them) for
active rules (as some call them).

    Future of the rule system:

The now disabled parts  of  the  rule  system  (attribute
level,  multiple  actions on select and update new stuff)
require a complete new rewrite handler from scratch.  The
old one is too badly wired up.

After  6.4  I'll  start to work on a new rewrite handler,
that fully supports the attribute level  rules,  multiple
actions on select and update new.  This will be available
for 6.5 so we get full rewrite rule capabilities.
