in the year. This version has only the two files required by the Darwin
startup bundle design. Plus the sh script now uses Darwin-standard
functions to start up PostgreSQL, and it checks for the presence of a
variable in /etc/hostconfig, as do other Darwin startup scripts.

I suggest that a new directory be created,
contrib/start-scripts/darwin, and that these two files be put into it.
Folks who want to use the script can read the comments inside it to
figure out how to use it.

Please, apply patch for current CVS & 7.3.1

postgresql version 7.3, but yea... this patch adds full IPv6
support to postgres. I've tested it out on 7.2.3 and has
been running perfectly stable.

tested a patch to contrib/xml where the existing code was causing
postgres to crash when it encountered & entities in the XML. I've
enclosed a patch that John came up with to correct this problem. It
patches against 7.3 and will apply on 7.2x if the elog WARNING calls
are changed to elog NOTICE.

=====================

I suggested an improvement of the inserttable in the PyGreSQL interface
already in January, but seemingly it was never implemented. I was told this
is the right place to get patches in for PyGreSQL, so I'm reposting my patch
here.

I consider the inserttable methode essential in populating the database
because of its benefits in performance compared to insert, so I think this
patch is quite essential. The attachment is an improved version of the
corresponding pg_inserttable function in pgmodule.c, which fixes the
following problems:

* The function raised exceptions because PyList_GetItem was used beyond the
size of the list. This was checked by comparing the result with NULL, but
the exception was not cleaned up, which could result in mysterious errors in
the following Python code. Instead of clearing the exception using
PyErr_Clear or something like that, I avoided throwing the exception at all
by at first requesting the size of the list. Using this opportunity, I also
checked the uniformity of the size of the rows passed in the lists/tuples.
The function also accepts (and silently ignores) empty lists and sublists.
* Python "None" values are now accepted and properly converted to PostgreSQL
NULL values
* The function now generates an error message in case of a line buffer
overflow
* It copes with tabulators, newlines and backslashes in strings now
* Rewrote the buffer filling code which should now run faster by avoiding
unnecessary string copy operations forth and back

cleaning up locale names and nothing else. Since all the locale names
are in plain  ASCII I think it will be safe to use ASCII-only lower-case
conversion.

problems that occur if sublink is referenced via a join alias variable.
Perhaps this can be improved later, but a simple and safe fix is needed
for 7.3.1.

"SET search_path"  commands were added to the beginning of the script.

The attatched patch should fix the problem. It probably should be
applied  against the 7.3 and 7.4 branches.

Backpatch to 7.3.

to plan nodes, not vice-versa.  All executor state nodes now inherit from
struct PlanState.  Copying of plan trees has been simplified by not
storing a list of SubPlans in Plan nodes (eliminating duplicate links).
The executor still needs such a list, but it can build it during
ExecutorStart since it has to scan the plan tree anyway.
No initdb forced since no stored-on-disk structures changed, but you
will need a full recompile because of node-numbering changes.
