[HACKERS] TODO item: make world safe for spaces in build/install paths

2004-12-30 Thread Tom Lane
Pursuant to Theodore Petrosky's recent trouble report, I thought I would see what happens if you try to build Postgres in a directory whose path contains spaces, or if the install prefix contains spaces. It doesn't work, not even close. It looks to me like there are a couple of hundred places in

[HACKERS] hardcoded decimal point '.'

2004-12-30 Thread Sergey Anpilov
NUMERIC data type is hardcoded to use '.' as the decimal point. FLOATs are in fact hardcoded the same way (they use strtod() and sprintf() while pgsql's LC_NUMERIC is always C). The only data type that localizes decimal point is MONEY. it makes many problems when the decimal point is not '.'

Yay I assume that any changes will be in CVS at that point? I have a bunch of patches and some new files for the OS/2 port that I plan on submitting as a diff to the 8.0 GA when that comes about. Is that the appropriate time? BTW - I did get all the NLS stuff working as well. Lorne In
