Some makefile simplifications.

conversion procs and conversions are added in initdb. Currently
supported conversions are:

UTF-8(UNICODE) <--> SQL_ASCII, ISO-8859-1 to 16, EUC_JP, EUC_KR,
		    EUC_CN, EUC_TW, SJIS, BIG5, GBK, GB18030, UHC,
		    JOHAB, TCVN

EUC_JP <--> SJIS
EUC_TW <--> BIG5
MULE_INTERNAL <--> EUC_JP, SJIS, EUC_TW, BIG5

Note that initial contents of pg_conversion system catalog are created
in the initdb process. So doing initdb required is ideal, it's
possible to add them to your databases by hand, however. To accomplish
this:

psql -f your_postgresql_install_path/share/conversion_create.sql your_database

So I did not bump up the version in cataversion.h.

Add more conversion procs
Add [CASCADE|RESTRICT] to DROP CONVERSION
Add tuples to pg_depend

Add SQL99 CONVERT command?

one place.  Everything may be moved to src/utils eventually.

Add DLLINIT variable to simplify makfiles.

to do profiling on Cygwin, per report from Dave Page.

As proof of concept, provide an alternate implementation based on POSIX
semaphores.  Also push the SysV shared-memory implementation into a
separate file so that it can be replaced conveniently.

  src/GNUmakefile.in to src/Makefile
and
  src/backend/port/Makefile.in to src/backend/port/Makefile

All configure substitutions are now done in Makefile.global.

'ifdef' in Makefile.

under libdir, for a cleaner separation in the installation layout
and compatibility with binary packaging standards.  Point backend's
default search location there.  The contrib modules are also
installed in the said location, giving them the benefit of the
default search path as well.  No changes in user interface
nevertheless.

Use --enable-nls to turn it on; see installation instructions for details.
See developer's guide how to make use of it in programs and how to add
translations.

psql sources have been almost fully prepared and an incomplete German
translation has been provided.  In the backend, only elog() calls are
currently translatable, and the provided German translation file is more
of a placeholder.

it does not support 64bit integers. AFAIK that's the default data type for
OIDs, so I am not surprised that this does not work. Use gcc instead.
BTW., 7.1 does not compile as is with gcc either, I believed the
required patches made it into the 7.1.1 release but obviously I missed
the deadline.
Since the ports mailing list does not seem to be archived I have attached
a copy of the patch (for 7.1 and 7.1.1).

I've just performed a build of a Watcom compiled version and found a couple
of bugs in the watcom specific part of that patch. Please use the attached
version instead.

Jason Tishler's credit, if it's broken it's my fault ...

$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) <object files> <extra-libraries> $(LIBS) -o $@

This form seemed to be the most portable, readable, and logical, but in any
case it's better than having a dozen different ones in the tree.

source directory.  This involves mostly makefiles using $(srcdir) when they
might have used ".".  (Regression tests don't work with this, yet.)

Sort out usage of CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS (and CXXFLAGS).  Add "override" keyword
in most places, to preserve necessary flags even when the user overrode the
flags.

necessary for the postgres/postmaster link, not every link.

DESTDIR=/else/where' and prepends the value of DESTDIR to the full
installation paths (e.g., /else/where/usr/local/pgsql/bin). This allows
users to install the package into a location different from the one that
was configured and hard-coded into various scripts, e.g., for creating
binary packages.

DESTDIR is in many cases preferrable over `make install
prefix=/else/where' because

a) `prefix' affects the path that is hard-coded into the files, which can
lead to a `make install prefix=xxx' (as done by the regression test
driver) corrupting the files in the source tree with wrong paths.

b) it doesn't work at all if a directory was overridden to not depend on
`prefix', e.g., --sysconfdir=/etc.

(Updating the regression test driver to use DESTDIR is a separate
undertaking.)

to one another. Sort out builddir vs srcdir variable namings. Remove some
now obsoleted make variables.

The latter updated accordingly. Also add `dist' and `distcheck' targets
to play with, but caveat packager.

Updated backend/bootstrap and backend/parser makefile to make them
marginally builddir aware and fix the usual set of things.

Add rule to automatically remake config.h dependent on config.h.in and
config.status. (Adopted from Autoconf manual and about every other
package.) On a good day we should now have a complete and accurate set
of dependencies throughout everything.

The .DEFAULT rule in backend/Makefile is harmful -- removed.
Replace `::' rules by `:'.

 This will ensure building parse.h for commands, though this is also
 covered with other build rules.

Make Gen_fmgrtab.sh reasonably robust against concurrent invocation.

thank you ...

functional.

Handle include file installation in src/include/Makefile

genbki.sh improvements: Don't substitute anything by config.status,
instead pass in AWK and CPP through environment. Change calling
convention to support named output files, so we get to see error
messages on stderr.

Rename bootstrap template files and install them into PREFIX/share.
Update initdb to that effect and other readability improvements
in initdb.

and config.h. Adjusted all referring code.

Scrapped pg_version and changed initdb accordingly. Integrated
src/utils/version.c into src/backend/utils/init/miscinit.c. Changed all
callers.

Set version number to `7.1devel'. (Non-numeric version suffixes now allowed.)

for details).  It doesn't really do that much yet, since there are no
short-term memory contexts in the executor, but the infrastructure is
in place and long-term contexts are handled reasonably.  A few long-
standing bugs have been fixed, such as 'VACUUM; anything' in a single
query string crashing.  Also, out-of-memory is now considered a
recoverable ERROR, not FATAL.
Eliminate a large amount of crufty, now-dead code in and around
memory management.
Fix problem with holding off SIGTRAP, SIGSEGV, etc in postmaster and
backend startup.

Add options to configure to automatically build for Kerberos
support; no more editing of make files.

no reason for them to be copied into src/backend rather than being
installed straight from the catalog subdirectory.  This also avoids
some peculiar behavior (bugs?) present in at least gmake 3.78.1: it
won't always update the bki files in backend/ even when the ones in
backend/catalog/ are newer.

Install a default configuration file.

Clean up some funny business in the config file code.

That means you can now set your options in either or all of $PGDATA/configuration,
some postmaster option (--enable-fsync=off), or set a SET command. The list of
options is in backend/utils/misc/guc.c, documentation will be written post haste.

pg_options is gone, so is that pq_geqo config file. Also removed were backend -K,
-Q, and -T options (no longer applicable, although -d0 does the same as -Q).

Added to configure an --enable-syslog option.

changed all callers from TPRINTF to elog(DEBUG)

AUTHTYPE in config file.  Patch both branches.

the src/include tree, so that -I backend is no longer necessary anywhere.
Also, clean up some bit rot in contrib tree.

key call sites are changed, but most called functions are still oldstyle.
An exception is that the PL managers are updated (so, for example, NULL
handling now behaves as expected in plperl and plpgsql functions).
NOTE initdb is forced due to added column in pg_proc.

        1) adds NetBSD shared lib support on both ELF and a.out platforms

        2) replaces "-L$(LIBPQDIR) -lpq" with "$(LIBPQ)" defined in
           Makefile.global.  This makes it much easier to build stuff in
           the source tree after you've already installed the libraries.

        3) adds TEMPLATEDIR in Makefile.global that indicates where the
           database templates are stored.  This separates the template files
           from real libraries that are installed in $(LIBDIR).
        4) changes include order of <readline/readline.h> and <readline.h>.
           The latest GNU readline installs its headers under a readline
           subdirectory.

In addition to applying the patch below the following files need to be copied:

        backend/port/dynloader:
                bsd.h -> netbsd.h
                bsd.c -> netbsd.c
        include/port:
                bsd.h -> netbsd.h
        makefiles:
                Makefile.bsd -> Makefile.netbsd

It would be great to see this incorporated into the source tree before
the 7.0 release is cut.

        Thanks!
