  1. Multi-byte and client side character encoding tests for copy command..

    Ayush Parashar <aparashar@greenplum.com> — 2005-07-07T20:55:55Z

    Hi there,
    
    I am new to this list.
    
    I have made some additions to multi-byte regression tests ( ./src/test/mb),
    to include regression tests for copy command. This can be used to test
    multi-byte extensions of postgresql and client character encoding, for copy
    command. The test uses the following complete character sets: "big5 gbk uhc
    gb18030 euc_cn latin8 iso_8859_6 iso_8859_7 euc_kr euc_jp".
    
    I am attaching only the modified README and mbregress.sh with the email. I
    have not included the various character sets with the email as they are
    nearly 1MB. 
    
    Can you please comment on this..?
    
    I can provide a patch for the same, which includes the character sets.
    
    Thanks,
    Ayush
    
    ps: sorry for the previous blank email, that was by mistake.

    Where are we on this?  Should we just add a URL to the full 1MB test files?

    Adding an MB to the distribution for tests that hardly anyone needs to
    run is surely not a good idea.  What about putting them on pgfoundry and
    then putting a link to that somewhere in the docs?

    Yea, that sounds good.

    The running of extra tests outside our standard regression set will be 
    one of the topics discussed during my session in Toronto. I don't mind 
    having them stored elsewhere, although it will make things a bit more 
    complex, but this use should be kept in mind (for example, I don't think 
    pgfoundry has a CVSup server, although it probably could have easily 
    enough).

    Ayush and I (along with Brian Hagenbuch) also plan to be in Toronto, so we
    can help as needed.

    You and Bruce might want to think about *registering* for the conference.

    I thought I did already.  I filled something out a few months ago. 
    Anyway, it now says registration closed.

    Speaking of which, is a list of those registered posted anywhere?  I
    looked for one the other day because I wanted to double-check that
    I was registered, but couldn't find anything on the website.

    No, I think there would be some privacy issues with that.   You're 
    registered.   You should have been getting "conference-attendees" e-mails, 
    about 3 of them so far.
