Обсуждение: EVENT Keyword and CREATE TABLE

I think I just got bitten hard by a commit in mid July... git sha1 3855968.

In some of our old tables going back several years we a column named
'event' as in:

CREATE TABLE tblaudittrail (   id bigint NOT NULL,   siteid integer NOT NULL,   entrytype character varying(25),   form
charactervarying(50),   recordid integer,   field character varying(25),   changedfrom character varying(500),
changedtocharacter varying(500),   changedon timestamp with time zone,   changedby character varying(25),   event
charactervarying(1000)
 
);

I was working off trunk and the database refuses to create this table
any longer. Is this by design or is it a regression bug?

Thanks

It's a bug.  The event-trigger patch added EVENT as a new keyword, but
forgot to list it in the unreserved_keywords production, which is
necessary to make it actually act unreserved.

I've committed a fix, and manually verified there are no other such
errors at present, but this isn't the first time this has happened.
We probably need to put in some automated cross-check, or it won't
be the last time either.

Oh. Oops. Sorry about that.

I see you've added the automated cross-check now, thanks for that!
