such as
    SELECT f1 FROM foo UNION SELECT ... ORDER BY upper(f1)
to draw
'ORDER BY on a UNION/INTERSECT/EXCEPT result must be on one of the result columns'
rather than the uninformative 'f1 not found' we were producing before.
Eventually this should actually work, but that looks much too hard to try
to implement in late beta...

specifies redundant UNIQUE conditions.

clause with an alias is a <subquery> and therefore hides table references
appearing within it, according to the spec.  This is the same as the
preliminary patch I posted to pgsql-patches yesterday, plus some really
grotty code in ruleutils.c to reverse-list a query tree with the correct
alias name depending on context.  I'd rather not have done that, but unless
we want to force another initdb for 7.1, there's no other way for now.

wasn't clear that the "boolean type" was actually called "boolean".  Add
tip about "casting" booleans using CASE.

Spell check whole file.

        - Fixed bug in LargeObject & BlobOutputStream where the stream's output
          was not flushed when either the stream or the blob were closed.
        - Fixed PreparedStatement.setBinaryStream() where it ignored the length

protocol. I have left in Tom's SOCK_get_next_byte() fix, and the new
win32.mak file addition.  I have also left in the 'X' connection close
fix.

everywhere.

HTML:
* make .html the default extension
* allow use of CSS stylesheet ("stylesheet.css", not included)
* make <set> TOC two levels deep
* put time of creation into meta header
Print:
* make print output justified by default
* footnotes at bottom of each page
* allow TeX to hyphenate

GetFreeXLBuffer(): use Insert->LgwrResult instead of private LgwrResult
copy if it's more fresh (attempt to avoid acquiring info_lck/lgwr_lck).

        - More TestCases implemented. Refined the test suite api's.
        - Removed need for SimpleDateFormat in ResultSet.getDate() improving
          performance.
        - Rewrote ResultSet.getTime() so that it uses JDK api's better.

        - Added MiscTest to hold reported problems from users.
        - Fixed PGMoney.
        - JBuilder4/JDBCExplorer now works with Money fields. Patched Field &
          ResultSet (lots of methods) for this one. Also changed cash/money to
          return type DOUBLE not DECIMAL. This broke JBuilder as zero scale
          BigDecimal's can't have decimal places!
        - When a Statement is reused, the previous ResultSet is now closed.
        - Removed deprecated call in ResultSet.getTime()

        - Changed a couple of settings in DatabaseMetaData where 7.1 now
          supports those features
        - Implemented the DatabaseMetaData TestCase.

Wed Feb 07 18:06:00 GMT 2001 peter@retep.org.uk
        - Added comment to Connection.isClosed() explaining why we deviate from
          the JDBC2 specification.
        - Fixed bug where the Isolation Level is lost while in autocommit mode.
        - Fixed bug where several calls to getTransactionIsolationLevel()
          returned the first call's result.

as previously discussed.

It makes AIX and IRIX not use DST for dates before 1970.

The following expected files need to be removed from the regression tests,
they contain wrong results and are not needed any more.

- Add extra arg to formatStringLiteral to specify how to handle LF & TAB.
  I opted for encoding them except in procedure bodies & comments
- Fixed bug in tar file input when restoring blobs

definitions from K&R to ANSI C style, and fix broken assumption that
int and long are the same datatype.  This repairs problems observed
on Alpha with regexps having between 32 and 63 states.

tested only with MS VC++ 6.0SP4 using nmake.

> OK, add #include <stdio.h> to the file.  That should fix it.

Seems unlikely, since libpq-fe.h already includes <stdio.h>.

The real problem here is that the code is wrong: it's passing NULL
to an int parameter.

                        regards, tom lane

two transactions create the same table name concurrently, the one that
fails will complain about unique index pg_class_relname_index, rather than
about pg_type_typname_index which'll confuse most people.  Free side
benefit: pg_class.reltype is correctly linked to the pg_type entry now.
It's been zero in all but the preloaded pg_class entries since who knows
when.
