Обсуждение: PostgreSQL v6.4 BETA2...
Is now available, based on the source tree as of ~3am on Oct 15th. With this BETA, the source code is frozen...there is *absolutely* no changes to be made except that which is required to fix a bug that pertains to the building and/or running on a particular platform, or to fix a crucial bug. If any BETA can stand, on its own, for 1 week, without a change being required to the source code (docs don't count in this), then it will become the released version. Again, unless it is a *crucial* fix, please withhold all patches until after we get this released and out to the public... Marc G.

What about the inet stuff. I'm just waiting for Paul's inet_cidr* functions to test and submit the final stuff. As it stand it will crash the backend if you use it. I guess that makes it a bug fix, right? I'll submit the builtins.h changes in the meantime. Perhaps I can cobble up my own version of the inet_cidr* functions at least to be able to test my functions. -- D'Arcy J.M.

But of course :) Anything that affects the backend, especially something that can relatively easily reproduce a crash, is a definite bug that needs to be fixed... Marc G.

Just wait and submit the whole thing. It is more likely to work in that case. Yes, I think that will have to be slipped in.

It is more likely to work in that > case. Sure. I meant that I would cobble up a rough approximation of the functions locally just so I could test my stuff. I'm still waiting for Paul to build the real ones. -- D'Arcy J.M.
