23 years agoThanks for your feedback (and patience). Enclosed is my third
Bruce Momjian [Fri, 17 Aug 2001 14:45:49 +0000 (14:45 +0000)]
Thanks for your feedback (and patience).  Enclosed is my third
attempt at a patch to 7.1.2 to support Array.

[I think I've solved the mangled patch problem.  Hotmail seems to
try to format the text file, so gzipping it should solve this
problem.]

In this patch I've incorporated Barry's feedback.  Specifically:

1)  OIDs are no longer hard-coded into Array.java.  In order to
    support this change I added a getOID(String) method to Field.java
    which receives a PostgreSQL field type and returns a value from
    java.sql.Types.  I couldn't get away from using OIDs altogether
    because the JDBC spec for Array specifies that some methods return
    a ResultSet.  This requires I construct Field objects,
    which means I need OIDs.  At least this approach doesn't hard
    code these values.  A Hashtable cache has been added to Field
    so that an SQL lookup isn't necessary (following the model already
    in Field.java).

2)  Rewired the base formatting code in ResultSet.java to use 'to'
    methods, which are then exposed as static methods in ResultSet.
    These methods are used in Array to format the data without
    duplications in the code.

3)  Artifact call to first() in ResultSet.getArray() removed.

23 years agoAttached is the patch requested by Tom Lane (see below). It
Bruce Momjian [Fri, 17 Aug 2001 13:59:29 +0000 (13:59 +0000)]
Attached is the patch requested by Tom Lane (see below). It
includes two changes in the JDBC driver:

1) When connected to a backend >= 7.2: use obj_description() and
col_description() instead of direct access to pg_description.

2) In DatabaseMetaData.getTables()/getColumns()/getProcedures():
when there is no comment on the object, return null in the
REMARKS column of the ResultSet, instead of the default string
"no remarks".

Change 2 first appeared as a side-effect of change 1, but it is
actually more compliant with the JDBC spec: "String object
containing an explanatory comment on the table/column/procedure,
which may be null". The default string "no remarks" was strictly
speaking incorrect, as it could not be distinguished from a real
user comment "no remarks". So I removed the default string
completely.

Change 2 might break existing code that doesn't follow the JDBC
spec and isn't prepared to handle a null in the REMARKS column
of getTables()/getColumns()/getProcedures.

Patch tested with jdbc2 against both a 7.1 and a CVS tip
backend. I did not have a jdbc1 environment to build and test
with, but since the touched code is identical in jdbc1 and jdbc2
I don't foresee any problems.

Per this discussion, here's a patch to implement both levenshtein() and
metaphone() in a contrib. There seem to be a fair number of different
approaches to both of these algorithms. I used the simplest case for
levenshtein which has a cost  of 1 for any character insertion, deletion, or
substitution. For metaphone, I adapted the same code from CPAN that the PHP
folks did.

A couple of questions:
1. Does it make sense to fold the soundex contrib together with this one?

2. I was debating trying to add multibyte support to levenshtein (it would
make no sense at all for metaphone), but a quick search through the contrib
directory found no hits on the word MULTIBYTE. Should worry about adding
multibyte support to levenshtein()?
