I was a bit unhappy to realize just now that the patch Heikki sent in, and I reviewed and applied, actually broke dict_synonym. (Modifying a string tends to modify the result of strlen() ...) While we can't cover *everything* in the regression tests, it now seems like a bad idea that the tsearch.sql test has no coverage at all for the ispell, synonym, or thesaurus templates. The difficulty in testing these is that they require configuration files, which the regression tests really can't install. (If the configuration were all inside the database it wouldn't be such a problem, but that's a lost cause for 8.3...) For synonym and thesaurus, we could rename the sample files that are currently installed so that they'd be actually accessible as config files, that is something likesynonym.syn.sample => synonym-sample.synthesaurus.ths.sample => thesaurus-sample.ths and then perform tests using those. (This would also provide test coverage for CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY etc, which wouldn't be a bad thing.) The downsides I can see of this are (1) it'd expose some rather useless test files as things that people could create dictionaries with, and (2) someone might then alter the sample file and thereby cause regression tests to fail on their installation. Neither of these seem terribly bad, but has anyone got an objection or better idea? Also, we don't currently have any sample config files for ispell; but this is surely a loser from a documentation standpoint as well as a testing standpoint, so I think we should provide some. regards, tom lane
