This version has the seven fields I proposed, including "source". Here's
an example that shows why I think it's valuable:

regression=# \x
Expanded display is on.
regression=# select * from pg_settings where name = 'enable_seqscan';
-[ RECORD 1 ]-----------
name    | enable_seqscan
setting | on
context | user
vartype | bool
source  | default
min_val |
max_val |

regression=# update pg_settings set setting = 'off' where name =
'enable_seqscan';
-[ RECORD 1 ]---
set_config | off

regression=# select * from pg_settings where name = 'enable_seqscan';
-[ RECORD 1 ]-----------
name    | enable_seqscan
setting | off
context | user
vartype | bool
source  | session
min_val |
max_val |

regression=# alter user postgres set enable_seqscan to 'off';
ALTER USER

(log out and then back in again)

regression=# \x
Expanded display is on.
regression=# select * from pg_settings where name = 'enable_seqscan';
-[ RECORD 1 ]-----------
name    | enable_seqscan
setting | off
context | user
vartype | bool
source  | user
min_val |
max_val |

In the first case, enable_seqscan is set to its default value. After
setting it to off, it is obvious that the value has been changed for the
session only. In the third case, you can see that the value has been set
specifically for the user.

21 years agohere are the patches for psql on Win32:
Bruce Momjian [Sun, 27 Jul 2003 03:32:26 +0000 (03:32 +0000)]
here are the patches for psql on Win32:

  psql4win32.patch  - changes in the psql source code
  psql-ref.patch    - changes in the documentation psql-ref.sgml
                      (for new builtin variable WIN32_CONSOLE)

To apply them use "patch -p 1" in the root directory of the
postgres source directory.

These patches fix the following problems of psql on Win32
(all changes only have effect #ifdef WIN32):

  a) Problem:  Static library libpq.a did not work
     Solution: Added WSAStartup() in fe-connect.c

  b) Problem:  Secret Password was echoed by psql
     Solution: Password echoing disabled in sprompt.c

  c) Problem:  8bit characters were displayed/interpreted wrong in psql
               This is due to the fact that the Win32 "console" uses a
               different encoding than the rest of the Windows system
     Solution: Introduced a new psql variable WIN32_CONSOLE
               When set with "\set WIN32_console", the function OemToChar()
               is applied after reading input and CharToOem() before

OK; the only change in this version is "isconst = false;". Now you can
use $0 as a result placeholder if desired. E.g.:

create or replace function tmp(anyelement, anyelement) returns anyarray as '

  return v_ret;
end;
' language 'plpgsql';

create table f(f1 text, f2 text, f3 int, f4 int);
insert into f values ('a','b',1,2);
insert into f values ('z','x',3,4);

Bruce Momjian [Sat, 26 Jul 2003 13:50:02 +0000 (13:50 +0000)]
At long last I put together a patch to support 4 client SSL negotiation
modes (and replace the requiressl boolean). The four options were first
spelled out by Magnus Hagander <mha@sollentuna.net> on 2000-08-23 in email
to pgsql-hackers, archived here:

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2000-08/msg00639.php

My original less-flexible patch and the ensuing thread are archived at:

http://dbforums.com/t623845.html

Attached is a new patch, including documentation.

To sum up, there's a new client parameter "sslmode" and environment
variable "PGSSLMODE", with these options:

sslmode   description
-------   -----------
disable   Unencrypted non-SSL only
allow     Negotiate, prefer non-SSL
prefer    Negotiate, prefer SSL (default)
require   Require SSL

The only change to the server is a new pg_hba.conf line type,
"hostnossl", for specifying connections that are not allowed to use SSL
(for example, to prevent servers on a local network from accidentally
using SSL and wasting cycles). Thus the 3 pg_hba.conf line types are:

pg_hba.conf line types
----------------------
host       applies to either SSL or regular connections
hostssl    applies only to SSL connections
hostnossl  applies only to regular connections

These client and server options, the postgresql.conf ssl = false option,
and finally the possibility of compiling with no SSL support at all,
make quite a range of combinations to test. I threw together a test
script to try many of them out. It's in a separate tarball with its
config files, a patch to psql so it'll announce SSL connections even in
absence of a tty, and the test output. The test is especially informative
when run on the same tty the postmaster was started on, so the FATAL:
errors during negotiation are interleaved with the psql client output.

I saw Tom write that new submissions for 7.4 have to be in before midnight
local time, and since I'm on the east coast in the US, this just makes it
in before the bell. :)

Ok.. that works.

I must say it's a little strange being able to take a constant and say
its no longer constant anymore -- but I suppose it's no different than
defining then undefining pre-processor constants.
