boxes. Change interface to user-defined GiST support methods union and
picksplit. Now instead of bytea struct it used special GistEntryVector
structure.

datatype; the generic array comparators added in 7.4 supersede this.
Per report and patch from Korea PostgreSQL Users' Group.

$Header: -> $PostgreSQL Changes ...

1 intarray: bugfix for int[]-int[] operation
2 intarray: split _int.c to several files (_int.c now is unused)
3 ntarray (gist__intbig_ops opclass): use special type for index storage
4 ltree (gist__ltree_ops opclass), intarray (gist__intbig_ops): optimize
GiST's
penalty and picksplit interface functions, now use Hemming distance.

docs that CLIENT/LOG_MIN_MESSAGES now controls debug_* output location.
Doc changes included.

only remnant of this failed experiment is that the server will take
SET AUTOCOMMIT TO ON.  Still TODO: provide some client-side autocommit
logic in libpq.

to MemSet is a performance boost.

it automatically now on regression session startup.

Create objects in public schema.

Make spacing/capitalization consistent.

Remove transaction block use for object creation.

Remove unneeded function GRANTs.

Please, apply attached patch, it solves the problem.

for contrib/intarray.

The cause was that the library uses its own function to construct a new
array, new_intArrayType, and that function did not set the new array
struct attribute elemtype.

Joe Conway

already fixed by You. However there were a few left and attached patch
should fix the rest of them.

I used StringInfo only in 2 places and both of them are inside debug
ifdefs. Only performance penalty will come from using strlen() like all
the other code does.

I also modified some of the already patched parts by changing
snprintf(buf, 2 * BUFSIZE, ... style lines to
snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), ... where buf is an array.

with OPAQUE, as per recent pghackers discussion.  I still want to do some
more work on the 'cstring' pseudo-type, but I'm going to commit the bulk
of the changes now before the tree starts shifting under me ...

   1. Reworked patch from Andrey Oktyabrski (ano@spider.ru) with
      functions: icount, sort, sort_asc, uniq, idx, subarray
      operations: #, +, -, |, &

FUNCTIONS:

  int   icount(int[]) - the number of elements in intarray
  int[] sort(int[], 'asc' | 'desc') - sort intarray
  int[] sort(int[]) - sort in ascending order
  int[] sort_asc(int[]),sort_desc(int[]) - shortcuts for sort
  int[] uniq(int[]) - returns unique elements
  int   idx(int[], int item) - returns index of first intarray matching element
                               to item, or '0' if matching failed.
  int[] subarray(int[],int START [, int LEN]) - returns part of intarray
                               starting from element number START (from 1)
                               and length LEN.
OPERATIONS:

  int[] && int[]  - overlap - returns TRUE if arrays has at least one common elements.
  int[] @  int[]  - contains - returns TRUE if left array contains right array
  int[] ~ int[]   - contained - returns TRUE if left array is contained in right array
  # int[]         - return the number of elements in array
  int[] + int     - push element to array ( add to end of array)
  int[] + int[]   - merge of arrays (right array added to the end of left one)
  int[] - int     - remove entries matched by right argument from array
  int[] - int[]   - remove left array from right
  int[] | int     - returns intarray - union of arguments
  int[] | int[]   - returns intarray as a union of two arrays
  int[] & int[]   - returns intersection of arrays

documentation (xindex.sgml should be rewritten), need to teach pg_dump
about it, need to update contrib modules that currently build pg_opclass
entries by hand.  Original patch by Bill Studenmund, grammar adjustments
and general update for 7.3 by Tom Lane.
