Clean up the code for to_timestamp's conversion of year plus ISO day number

work for years specified using AD/BC or CC fields, and fix the test for "no
year specified" so that it doesn't trigger inappropriately for 1 BC (which it
was doing even in code paths that had nothing to do with to_timestamp).  I
also did some minor code beautification in the non-ISO-day-number code path.

This area has been busted all along, but because the code has been rewritten
repeatedly, it would be considerable trouble to back-patch.  It's such a
corner case that it doesn't seem worth the effort.

exact-match pattern (no wildcard) can be index-optimized in some cases where a
prefix-match pattern cannot; specifically, since the required index clause is
simple equality, it works for regular text/varchar indexes even when the
locale is not C.  I'm not sure how often this case really comes up, but since
it requires hardly any additional work to handle it, we might as well get it
right.  Motivated by a discussion on the JDBC list.

Tom Lane [Tue, 10 Mar 2009 22:09:26 +0000 (22:09 +0000)]
Make SubPlan nodes carry the result's typmod as well as datatype OID.  This is
for consistency with the (relatively) recent addition of typmod to SubLink.
An example of why it's a good idea is to be seen in the recent "failed to
locate grouping columns" bug, which wouldn't have happened if a SubPlan
exposed the same typmod info as the SubLink it was derived from.

This could be back-patched, since it doesn't affect any on-disk data format,
but for the moment it doesn't seem necessary to do so.

15 years agoFix set_subquery_pathlist() to copy the RTE's subquery before it gets mangled
Tom Lane [Tue, 10 Mar 2009 20:58:26 +0000 (20:58 +0000)]
Fix set_subquery_pathlist() to copy the RTE's subquery before it gets mangled
by the planning process.  This prevents the "failed to locate grouping columns"
error recently reported by Dickson Guedes.  That happens because planning
replaces SubLinks by SubPlans in the subquery's targetlist, and exprTypmod()
is smarter about the former than the latter, causing the apparent type of
the subquery's output columns to change.  This seems to be a deficiency we
should fix in exprTypmod(), but that will be a much more invasive patch
with possible side-effects elsewhere, so I'll do that only in HEAD.

Back-patch to 8.3.  Arguably the lack of a copying step is broken/dangerous
all the way back, but in the absence of known problems I'll refrain from
making the older branches pay the extra cost.  (The reason this particular
symptom didn't appear before is that exprTypmod() wasn't smart about SubLinks
either, until 8.3.)
