in the type_info array would segfault DBD::Pg.
(CPAN bugs #4818,4432) [Rudy Lippan]
- Duplicate rows bug with column_info() REMARKS has been fixed. However,
support for Postgres 7.1.x which worked briefly for 1.31 has now been
dropped for this feature. (Mark Stosberg)

1.31 Mon Nov 17 21:21:21 UTC 2003
- $dbh->{TYPE} now returns SQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP instead of 1114 for
timestamp columns. (In 1.31_x {x| x<8} $sth->{TYPE} returned 0
but reported by ["Hirche, Joachim" <Joachim.Hirche@cimconcepts.com>]).

- Fix syntax error related to pg_server_version (CPAN bugs #2492,2755,3121)
- Cache multiple calls to pg_server_version.
- Notice messages generated by the database now use the perl
warning mechanism instead of going to stderr.
[Dominic Mitchell <dom@semantico.com>]
- $dbh->prepare() rewrites the SQL statement into an internal form,
striping out comments and whitespace, and if PostgreSQL > 7.3 takes the
stripped statement and passes that to Postgres' PREPARE statement,
then rewrites the statement as 'EXECUTE "DBD::PG::cached_query n"
($1, $2, ... $n, $n+1)' for DBD::Pg's execute.
-- Currently disabled until PREPARE works a little better
- Allows the use of :n and :foo bind params. So:
(SELECT * FROM foo WHERE 1 = :this and 2 = :that) will now work.
- Complains on execute when unbound bind params are submitted
(instead of defaulting to NULL)
- Switched over to use driver.xst.
- pg_error() removes \n's rather than truncating the message on the first \n.
- Fixed statement scan problem where the preparse of
"SELECT foo[3:33] from bar" was scanning :33 as a placeholder
- Moved the quoting of bind values out of execute() and into
bind -- as there is no need to requote the value every time execute
is called.
- :veryverylongplaceholdername == Long walk, short pier -- fixed.
- quote() is now in C and uses same code as bind_param.
- Quoting and dequoting now use libpq quoting functions where available
(I still need to take the libpq functions swiped out of quote.c and move
it into libpqswip.c with license info &c., and switch ifndefs to ifdefs)
- bind_param() will convert from 1,0 to TRUE/FALSE when pg_type
is PGBOOLOID.
- Fixed many heap buffer overruns.
- Added support for the get_info() method [Greg Sabino Mullane]
- Added tests for POD validation [Mark Stosberg]
- Several improvements to column_info, including:
- Fixed column_info so NULLABLE field shows correctly. [kevin@sysexperts.com]
- REMARKS field works now [Mark Stosberg]
- COLUMN_DEF fixed
- COLUMN_SIZE fixed
- pg_constraint column added to display column constraints
- additional documentation and tests added
- make test is now more intelligent and will bail out early if
db connection fails. [Greg Sabino Mullane]
module directory has changed (eg. "darwin-2level" vs.
"darwin-thread-multi-2level").
binary packages of perl modules need to be distinguishable between
being built against threaded perl and unthreaded perl, so bump the
PKGREVISION of all perl module packages and introduce
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED for perl as perl>=5.8.5nb5 so the correct
dependencies are registered and the binary packages are distinct.

- Fix memory allocation problem in bytea escaping
- Add utf8 support
- Transform Perl arrays into PostgreSQL arrays
- Fix for foreign_key_info()
- Fix PG_TEXT parameter binding
- Doc cleanups
- Fix warning from func($table, 'table_attributes')

- Properly reset transaction status after failed transaction when
autocommit is off. Properly report transaction failure message.
- New pg_bool_tf database handle that when set to true booleans are
returned as 't'/'f' rather than 1/0.
- Maintenance transferred to GBorg.
- Added implementations of column_info() and table_info(), and
primary_key_info().
- The POD formatting was cleaned up.
- The preparser was updated to better handle escaped characters.
- Added eg/lotest.pl as a demonstration of using large objects in buffers
rather than files.
- Added LISTEN/NOTIFY functionality.
- Added constants for common PostgreSQL data types.
- Fixed compile-time warnings.
The automatic truncation in gensolpkg doesn't work for packages which
have the same package name for the first 5-6 chars.
e.g. amanda-server and amanda-client would be named amanda and amanda.
Now, we add a SVR4_PKGNAME and use amacl for amanda-client and amase for
amanda-server.
All svr4 packages also have a vendor tag, so we have to reserve some chars
for this tag, which is normaly 3 or 4 chars. Thats why we can only use 6
or 5 chars for SVR4_PKGNAME. I used 5 for all the packages, to give the
vendor tag enough room.
All p5-* packages and a few other packages have now a SVR4_PKGNAME.
foo-* to foo-[0-9]*. This is to cause the dependencies to match only the
packages whose base package name is "foo", and not those named "foo-bar".
A concrete example is p5-Net-* matching p5-Net-DNS as well as p5-Net. Also
change dependency examples in Packages.txt to reflect this.
- fix segmentation fault in pg_error
- bug-fix for core-dump after any failed function call
- add support for the datatype bytea
- fix bug in connect method, which erroneously set the userid and the
password to the environment variables DBI_USER and DBI_PASS
- which removed the special handling of a backslash when used for octal
presentation. Now a backslash always will be escaped.
- remove memory-leak in ping function, bug-fix
- correct the recognition of primary keys in table_attributes().
- fix a segmentation fault in DBD::pg::blob_read() when reading LOBs that
required perl to reallocate space for the variable holding the scalar value
- updated test.pl to create a test blob larger than 256 bytes (now 128 Kbytes)
- fix a seg-fault when inserting large amounts of text.
- remove the newlines from the error messages and quote date placeholders.
- add Win32 port from Bob Kline .
- applied patch from Rudy Lippan
which fixes a memory-leak with failed connections.
- applied patch from Hein Roehrig
which fixes a bug with escaping a backslash except for
octal presentation
- applied patch from Francis J. Lacoste
to enhance the table_attributes subroutine
Apache perl modules, and each compiled and installed/de-installed apparently
correctly.
As a side effect of the dynamic PLIST, we no longer need to to have separate
-static and -shared PLISTs. It's now easier than ever to make a perl5
package for NetBSD :)
