Re: [PATCHES] [HACKERS] Problems compiling Postgresql 8.0.3 on 10.4

2005-07-20 Thread Dave Cramer

Jamie,

That's strange, I have 8.03 building fine on 10.4 ? Did you simply do  
a make without a make clean and run configure again ?

Rod,

I tried the current patch on a RC2 release, and I noticed one
undesirable side affect. 

Modifying a column  moves it to the end. In high availability situations
this would not be desirable, I would imagine it would break lots of
code.

  Can you please suggest a better term to use in place of TRANSFORM? 
  Perhaps UPDATE WITH?
 
 or perhaps USING, based loosely on our use of USING in CREATE INDEX ?

OK,

Here is another approach, that would retain column order. It will
require that the table be locked while this proceeds, but I think this
is a good idea anyway.

lock table
create newtable as select c1, c2, c3::newtype
modify pg_class to point to the new filename
modify existing pg_attribute for the column in question
recreate indexes that exist on the column
unlock table

 I can do this by hand.  If we have an explicit command to do it, then it
 needs to preserve the table schema.  Else, this feature would be mostly
 useless and a certain source of complaints.
