I believe this will fix peter_e's problen with gcc.

the JDBC driver.

I've done this by extracting it into a new method object called
QueryExecutor (should go into org/postgresql/core/) and then taking it
apart into different methods in that class.

A short summary:

* Extracted ExecSQL() from Connection into a method object called
  QueryExecutor.

* Moved ReceiveFields() from Connection to QueryExecutor.

* Extracted parts of the original ExecSQL() method body into smaller
  methods on QueryExecutor.

* Bug fix: The instance variable "pid" in Connection was used in two
  places with different meaning. Both were probably in dead code, but it's
  fixed anyway.

for the changed files and a few new files:
- test/jdbc2/BatchExecuteTest.java
- util/MessageTranslator.java
- jdbc2/PBatchUpdateException.java

As an aside, is this the best way to submit a patch consisting
of both changed and new files? Or is there a smarter cvs command
which gets them all in one patch file?

This patch fixes batch processing in the JDBC driver to be
JDBC-2 compliant. Specifically, the changes introduced by this
patch are:

1) Statement.executeBatch() no longer commits or rolls back a
transaction, as this is not prescribed by the JDBC spec. Its up
to the application to disable autocommit and to commit or
rollback the transaction. Where JDBC talks about "executing the
statements as a unit", it means executing the statements in one
round trip to the backend for better performance, it does not
mean executing the statements in a transaction.

2) Statement.executeBatch() now throws a BatchUpdateException()
as required by the JDBC spec. The significance of this is that
the receiver of the exception gets the updateCounts of the
commands that succeeded before the error occurred. In order for
the messages to be translatable, java.sql.BatchUpdateException
is extended by org.postgresql.jdbc2.PBatchUpdateException() and
the localization code is factored out from
org.postgresql.util.PSQLException to a separate singleton class
org.postgresql.util.MessageTranslator.

3) When there is no batch or there are 0 statements in the batch
when Statement.executeBatch() is called, do not throw an
SQLException, but silently do nothing and return an update count
array of length 0. The JDBC spec says "Throws an SQLException if
the driver does not support batch statements", which is clearly
not the case. See testExecuteEmptyBatch() in
BatchExecuteTest.java for an example. The message
postgresql.stat.batch.empty is removed from the language
specific properties files.

4) When Statement.executeBatch() is performed, reset the
statement's list of batch commands to empty. The JDBC spec isn't
100% clear about this. This behaviour is only documented in the
Java tutorial
(http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/jdbc/jdbc2dot0/batchupdates.html).
Note that the Oracle JDBC driver also resets the statement's
list in executeBatch(), and this seems the most reasonable
interpretation.

5) A new test case is added to the JDBC test suite which tests
various aspects of batch processing. See the new file
BatchExecuteTest.java.

I believe that the attached patch is the correct solution --  I apologize
for the gyrations.  With the attached patch, Cygwin libpq++ builds
cleanly again.  The root cause was that DLLIMPORT was defaulting to
__declspec(dllimport) since BUILDING_DLL was *not* defined when building
the libpq++ DLL.

Unfortunately, to test my patch requires changing the following makefile:

    src/interfaces/libpq++/examples/Makefile

and the #includes in all of the *.cc to build against the source tree
instead of the following hardcoded installation directory structure:

    /usr/local/pgsql

I was able to manually build

    src/interfaces/libpq++/examples/testlibpq0.exe

against my Cygwin libpq++ without errors.  However, I have not tried to
actually test testlibpq0.exe.

Is this sufficient?  Or, do you want me to clean up libpq++/examples too?
(Or, is it silly to even ask? :,))  Let me know how you want to proceed and
I will submit a patch to pgsql-patches.

two additional files win32.mak and libpgtcl.def.
This patch allows to compile libpgtcl.dll on Windows
with tcl > 8.0. I've tested it on WinNT (VC6.0), SUSE Linux (7.0)
and Solaris 2.6 with tcl 8.3.3.

really played it totally safe in my last suggestion, the system table might
pick up the msg but not the netmsg.dll, so better try both.
I also added a hex printout of the "errno" appended to all messages, that's
nicer.

If anyone hate my coding style, or that i'm using goto constructs, just tell
me, and i'll rework it into a nested if () thing.

If there's anyone out there who's actually using datatype-defined
default values, this will be an incompatible change in behavior ...
but the old behavior was so broken that I doubt anyone was using it.

Standardize on %X/%X as the formatting for XLOG position display --- we
had a couple of different formats before, and none of 'em were as useful
as hex offsets IMHO.

Update Italian jdbc error messages.

available in freeSemMap.  As noted by Tatsuo, this is now a likely
scenario for detecting MaxBackends-exceeded; if MaxBackends is a multiple
of PROC_NSEMS_PER_SET then we will fail here and not in sinval.c.  The
cleanup path did not work correctly before, anyway.

        "  -F {c|t}                 specify backup file format\n"

detection in ProcSleep().  Bug noted by Tomasz Zielonka --- how did this
escape detection for this long??

the expected behavior in mixed-case situations.
