[HACKERS] SQL99 feature list
I've just updated features.sgml to have a list of supported features followed by a list of unsupported ones. There are some items in the unsupported list which look easy to do. I've got patches for a MATCH SIMPLE clause on referential integrity declarations, and am developing patches for CREATE CAST, DROP CAST, and probably a few more items which could be simple parser additions or changes. Look at http://developer.postgresql.org/docs/postgres/features.html for the most recent version (it is not there yet but I'd expect it to be there soon). I'd like to look at supporting the various shorthand literal notations like B'0101', X'ABCD', and N'national' in a better way in the lexer to make sure that the information gets to the parser more robustly. Right now, N'national' is not supported at all and the other two forms are supported by transforming the input locally in the lexer which seems to work but does not extend to the NATIONAL CHARACTER case. Comments and suggestions are welcome. Y'all may want to look at features.sgml to find projects if you are looking for something to do; there are several items which look to be relatively easy to accomplish and others at various levels of difficulty... - Thomas ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/faq.html

Althought that is in the contrib/bind directory. Searching again...

OK, the offending code is this:
case AF_INET6:
sin6 = (struct sockaddr_in6 *) addr;
for (s = h-h_addr_list; *s != NULL; s++)
{
if (!memcmp(sin6-sin6_addr.s6_addr8, *s,
h-h_length))
return 0;
}
break;
It seems that this is how sin6_addr's type is defined:
struct in6_addr {
u_int8_ts6_addr[16];
};
so it's s6_addr, NOT s6_addr8. Is it still the same type?

Can you give me a hint where to look? I've looked at the code
and throught
he man pages and can't find the actual structure documented.
It's version
4.4 of FreeBSD, and it has ipv6 compiled in (ifconfig -a proves that).
I'm searching /usr/src right now...

Of course, it compiles if you disable SSL. :-)
Can you look at that line and see if there is something in
your OS that
matches it? I have KAME here and I thought FreeBSD would
have that too.

[HACKERS] Problem with SSL and IPv6
Bear, there is some IPv6 stuff in fe-secure.c. Is this intended? We don't support IPv6 in the backend yet, do we. We are having portability problems with that 'case' statement and I am considering removing it. -- Bruce Momjian| http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 853-3000 + If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup.| Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026 ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster

After all it's much easier to sync the two if I get smaller changes. seems to be making releases quite frequently lately. They were at 1.30 back in November, according to my archives, so that's 19 releases in the last 8 months. True. But most of them are not for releases. I have no idea which vesion number will be the one they release. Up to 1.35 they released frequently, but then it stopped and 1.49 is quite far from 1.35.

Actually I thought about changing the makefile as well, so preproc.c does not look like a derived file anymore. Michael -- Michael Meskes [EMAIL PROTECTED] Go SF 49ers! Go Rhein Fire!
