absolute.  It also makes it more compliant with the interface
specification in Sun's documentation;

1. absolute(0) should throw an exception.
2. absolute(>num-records) should set the current row to after the last
record in addition to returning false.
3. absolute(<num-records) should set the current row to before the first
record in addition to returning false.

These operations in the existing code just return false and don't change
current_row.

These changes required a minor change to relative(int) since it calls
absolute(int)

The attached patch is against the cvs repository tree as of this morning.

Also, who is in charge of maintaining the jdbc driver?  I'm working on
getArray for the jdbc2 driver, but it's going to require three more
classes to be added to the driver, and thus three more source files
in the repository.  Is there someone I can contact directly to ask about
this?

I have made the couple of mods required to make the odbc driver with
postgres build and use unixODBC (http://www.unixodbc.org)

This patch was applied against the postgresql-7.0beta1 build

Any problems let me know.

more restriction for fretful users. The current PG allow define only
NO-CREATE-DB and NO-CREATE-USER restriction, but for some users I need
NO-CREATE-TABLE and NO-LOCK-TABLE.

This patch add to current code NOCREATETABLE and NOLOCKTABLE feature:

CREATE USER username
    [ WITH
     [ SYSID uid ]
     [ PASSWORD 'password' ] ]
    [ CREATEDB   | NOCREATEDB ] [ CREATEUSER | NOCREATEUSER ]
->  [ CREATETABLE | NOCREATETABLE ] [ LOCKTABLE | NOLOCKTABLE ]
    ...etc.

 If CREATETABLE or LOCKTABLE is not specific in CREATE USER command,
as default is set CREATETABLE or LOCKTABLE (true).

 A user with NOCREATETABLE restriction can't call CREATE TABLE or
SELECT INTO commands, only create temp table is allow for him.

to_char.  I don't know about the rest of the world, but the "standard" in
Australia is the following:

        1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th - 9th
        10th - 19th
        21st, 22nd, 23rd, 24th - 29th (similarly for 30s - 90s)
        110th - 119th (and for all "teens")
        121st, 122nd, 123rd, 124th - 129th

I think you see the trend.  The current code works fine except that it
produces:

        111st, 112nd, 113rd, 114th - 119th
        211st, 212nd, 213rd, 214th - 219th ... and so on.

Without knowing anything about what's supported (and what isn't) in the usual
I18N libraries, should this type of behaviour be defined within the locales?

warnings).

we'd better have a Makefile here to prevent the mistake of using
vannilla make instead of gmake.  (But let's leave src/Makefile where
it is, too.)

It addresses three issues:

1. The problem with ResultSet's interface specifying 1-based indexing was
not quite fixed in 7.0.2.  absolute would stop the user form moving to the
first record (record 0 internally).

2. Absolute did not set current_row

3. For field.mod=-1, GetObject would try to return numeric values with a
precision of around 65000.  Now GetObject detects when field.mod==-1, and
passes that as the scale to getBigDecimal.  getBigDecimal detects when a
-1 is passed and simply does not scale the value returned.  You still get
the correct value back, it simply does not tweak the precision.

I'm working off of a source tree I just checked out from the
repository.  The diff is based on what was in the repository about ten
minutes ago.

CPP) to create platform independent files. Unfortunately, that means that
every config.status (or configure) run invariably causes a relink of the
postmaster and also that we can't put these files in the distribution
(usefully). So we make it a little smarter: when the output files already
exist and it notices that it would recreate them in identical form, it
doesn't touch them. In order to avoid re-running the make rule all the time
we update a timestamp file instead.

Update release_prep accordingly. Also make Gen_fmgrtab.sh use the awk that
is detected at configure time, not necessarily named `awk' and have it check
for exit statuses a little better.

In other news... Remove USE_LOCALE from the templates, it was set to `no'
everywhere anyway. Also remove YACC and YFLAGS from the templates, configure
is smart enough to find bison or yacc itself. Use AC_PROG_YACC for that
instead of the hand-crafted code. Do not set YFLAGS to `-d'. The make rules
that need this flag should explicitly invoke it. YFLAGS should be a user
variable. Update the makefiles to that effect.

configuration helper things into config/ dir. Adjusted some relative paths
in makefiles.
