Обсуждение: COPY improvements
The attached patch completes the following TODO item:
* Generate failure on short COPY lines rather than pad NULLs
I also restructed a lot of the existing COPY code, did some code
review on the column list patch sent in by Brent Verner a little
while ago, and added some regression tests. I also added an
explicit check (and resultant error) for extra data before
the end-of-line.
Since COPY is pretty important, I think this should be tested
pretty well before we release 7.3.
Cheers,
Neil

This patch fixes a regression test failure in the previous patch, updates the documentation for the new behavior of COPY, and makes the handling of COPY TO/FROM WITH OIDS into a table without OIDs more consistent (plus regression tests for the same). I'm not sure if the "bail out if we encounter extra data" check is too strict -- any comments? Cheers, Neil -- Neil Conway <neilconway@rogers.com> PGP Key ID: DB3C29FC

If the COPY row has too little data or too much data, you have to abort the COPY. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000 + If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026
