  1. Upcoming 8.0.2 Release

    Marc G. Fournier <scrappy@postgresql.org> — 2005-03-24T16:35:14Z

    Now that Tom has gotten the ARC->2Q changes into the 8.0.x Branch, and 
    Josh has had some time to do some preliminary performance testing on it, 
    we need to put out 8.0.2 ...
    
    Core's hope is to wrap a beta up on Friday (tomorrow), and baring any bugs 
    found in it, do a full release next Thursday.
    
    The reason for the gap is to give a bit of extra testing time due to the 
    ARC->2Q changes ...
    
    Is anyone sitting on anything that they feel needs/should get into 8.0.2?

    Has anybody had a chance to review the PL/Python patch I submitted?
    I did the diff against HEAD but I think its PL/Python code is
    identical to REL8_0_STABLE.  If the patch is acceptable then PL/Python
    users connecting to PostgreSQL via Windows clients should benefit
    from it being in 8.0.2.

     Add it to 8.0.2 or 8.1?

    I intend to look at that tomorrow.  Meanwhile, have you got a fix
    for bug#1500?

    I looked at this and found the problem is that dch_date() isn't
    defending itself against the possibility that tm->tm_mon is zero,
    as it well might be for an interval.  What do you think about
    just adding
    
            case DCH_MONTH:
    +           if (!tm->tm_mon)
    +               return 0;
                strcpy(workbuff, months_full[tm->tm_mon - 1]);
                sprintf(inout, "%*s", S_FM(suf) ? 0 : -9, str_toupper(workbuff));
                if (S_FM(suf))
                    return strlen(p_inout) - 1;
                else
                    return 8;
    
    and similarly in each of the other case arms that use tm_mon?
    This would case "MON" to convert to a null string for intervals,
    which is probably as good as we can do.

    Yes, I think you're right. It's because original code was for non-
    interval 'tm' struct where is no problem with zeros.

    Yes. The final solution will be remove all to_char(interval) stuff in
    8.1.
    
    Thanks Tom,

    OK, patch applied.  (I had it wrong above, correct return value is -1.)
