From bb0aed591f1e8c9bee51360bf6cb77be8c6eb475 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us> Date: Sun, 20 Feb 2005 22:02:19 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Use SnapshotNow instead of SnapshotSelf for reading the catalogs during flat-file writing. The only difference is that SnapshotSelf would consider tuples of the 'current command' within the current transaction as valid, where SnapshotNow wouldn't. We can eliminate the need for this with one extra CommandCounterIncrement call before we start reading the catalogs. --- src/backend/utils/init/flatfiles.c | 26 +++++++++++++------------- 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/utils/init/flatfiles.c b/src/backend/utils/init/flatfiles.c index 0cbb878f9ff..8968d572c88 100644 --- a/src/backend/utils/init/flatfiles.c +++ b/src/backend/utils/init/flatfiles.c @@ -22,7 +22,7 @@ * Portions Copyright (c) 1996-2005, PostgreSQL Global Development Group * Portions Copyright (c) 1994, Regents of the University of California * - * $PostgreSQL: pgsql/src/backend/utils/init/flatfiles.c,v 1.2 2005/02/20 04:45:59 tgl Exp $ + * $PostgreSQL: pgsql/src/backend/utils/init/flatfiles.c,v 1.3 2005/02/20 22:02:19 tgl Exp $ * *------------------------------------------------------------------------- */ @@ -235,11 +235,9 @@ write_database_file(Relation drel) tempname))); /* - * Read pg_database and write the file.
