Thanks for making the patch!
Here are some comments:
- The <literal>none</literal> value is allowed only when
- not using <literal>binary</literal> format.
+ Only <literal>stop</literal> value is allowed only when
+ using <literal>binary</literal> format.
The second 'only' may be unnecessary.
- /* If SAVE_ERROR_TO is specified, skip rows
with soft errors */
+ /* If ON_ERROR is specified with IGNORE, skip
rows with soft errors */
This is correct now, but considering future works which add other
options like "file 'copy.log'" and
"table 'copy_log'", it may be better not to limit the case to 'IGNORE'.
How about something like this?
If ON_ERROR is specified and the value is not STOP, skip rows with
soft errors
-COPY x from stdin (format BINARY, save_error_to none);
-COPY x to stdin (save_error_to none);
+COPY x from stdin (format BINARY, ON_ERROR ignore);
+COPY x from stdin (ON_ERROR unsupported);
COPY x to stdin (format TEXT, force_quote(a));
COPY x from stdin (format CSV, force_quote(a));
In the existing test for copy2.sql, the COPY options are written in
lower case(e.g. 'format') and option value(e.g. 'BINARY') are written in
upper case.
It would be more consistent to align them.
