around at either build-time or at run-time is:
USE_TOOLS+= perl # build-time
USE_TOOLS+= perl:run # run-time
Also remove some places where perl5/buildlink3.mk was being included
by a package Makefile, but all that the package wanted was the Perl
executable.
Add table comments to the Dia output. These are truncated to 45 characters.
Fix a bug which resulted in duplicated columns when they were reserved
words in postgresql (column named "name").
Correct a number of bugs. Check constraint formatting in 7.4, functions
using numeric data type arguments, and others.
New Dia style with Zigzag line type. This is a good template for databases
with a low number of tables.
Correct GraphViz output when database contains tables named after reserved
keywords.
Permission characters were being picked up when in the users name.
1.21
* Fix output for 7.2 in regards to indexes. ( Rod)
* Correct a configure issue with some non-standard versions of Bash. ( Rod)
1.20
* Use View heading for views rather than calling them tables. ( Andrew)
* Add an option to specify the template location during execution. ( Andrew)
* Add an option to specify a specific output type, rather than
receiving all possible types. ( Andrew)
* Display limited function information in HTML and DocBook output formats.
( Andrew, Rod)
* Output limited information about non-unique table indexes in DocBook
output. Unique indexes are already displayed as constraint output. ( Rod)
and take maintainership.
1.12
August 11st, 2003
* Complain if there are no template files in the template directory. ( Rod)
* Correct HTML output for specification conformance. ( Rod)
* Add note to HTML about PostgreSQL Autodoc. ( Rod)
1.11
August 1st, 2003
* Write documentation including what variables are used for template creation.
( Rod)
* Correct various inter-schema issues with commonly named tables. ( Rod)
* Remove sgml.tmpl DocBook output. Replace with xml.tmpl for DocBook output.
( Rod)
* Add --statistics support for PostgreSQL 7.4. Requires pgstattuple from
contrib to be installed ( Rod)
* Correct schema prefix to function names. ( Rod)
* Statistics based on PostgreSQL's pgstattuple contrib module ( Rod)
* Correct a number of issues with common table names in multiple schemas.
(a.j and b.j) ( Rod)
* Other bug fixes ( Rod)
1.10
May 18th, 2003
* Skip plpgsql_call_handler() in PostgreSQL 7.3 and later ( Rod)
* Fix column descriptions ( Rod, Arthur )
* Use a table connection point for GraphViz output for cleaner formatting.
( Rod)
* Ensure that multikey constraints can be associated with a group number
(UNIQUE#1, UNIQUE#2, FK#1, FK#2, ...) ( Arthur, Rod)
* Skip information_schema on 7.4 database ( Rod)
* Base the output on templates which are processed by HTML::Template allowing
simpler editing of the output for various styles ( Neil, Rod )
* Correct the PostgreSQL 7.1 query processes ( Rod)
* Add a new --schema argument to enable dumping a single schema ( Rod)
* Large cleanups for the various outputs to simplify the code base and remove
long standing bugs in DocBook output ( Rod)
* Found the Dia bug which causes the crash. Workaround applied.
Databases using multi-key foreign keys, or multi-key unique /
primary key constraints are now loadable.
This is a utility which will run through PostgreSQL system tables and
returns HTML, DOT, and 2 styles of XML which describes the database.
The HTML is human readable (via webbrowser). The first style of XML is
actually the fileformat of Dia, a UML diagram tool. The second type of
XML is similar to the HTML but in the Docbook 4 format. It enables you
to mix in other docbook documentation via the XREFs, generating PDFs,
HTML, RTF, or other formatted documents. Between these tools and
JavaDoc with the appropriate XREFs, documentation about a project can
be generated quickly and be easily updatable yet have a very
professional look with some DSSSL work.
