I still don't see an entry for Linux 2.4.x

Cheers.

 mklinux has failed Tatsuo's testing afaicr. Demote to unsupported?

 Any NetBSD partisans who can do testing or solicit testing from the
 NetBSD crowd? Same for OpenBSD?

 QNX is known to have problems with 7.1. Any hope of fixing for 7.1.1? Is
 there anyone able to work on it? If not, I'll move to the unsupported
 list.

Re: [HACKERS] Call for platforms (linux 2.4.x ?)

2001-03-21 Thread Franck Martin

I see nobody did a test of 7.1 on Linux 2.4.x ?

Would be nice to certify it is running on kernel 2.4.x as they claim this
is entreprise strength kernel...

Cheers.

[HACKERS] CORBA and PG

Does anyone has pointers on CORBA and PostgreSQL?

What is the story ?

RE: [HACKERS] CORBA and PG

I guess these stubs are for accessing PG as a corba server...

I'm trying to look to see if I can store CORBA objects inside PG, any
ideas...

There's some old stubs for one of the orbs somewhere in the source (C/C++)

Also the old JDBC/Corba example is still there 
(src/interfaces/jdbc/example/corba)

Re: [HACKERS] BLOB HOWTO??

2001-01-30 Thread Franck Martin

I'm interested by TOAST, and I have asked several questions on the subject...
I haven't tested them yet...

First I thought that the type bytea allows storing of binary data, a BSOB
(Binary Small OBject).
Secondly that by using a binary cursor you have access to the raw data as it
is stored in the database, but not as it is presented in ASCII
Thridly we could use a funtion to retreive parts of columns, something like
mid(column,start,length)
Fourthly we may use the same function for storing data back.

Cheers...

  I've been thining about writing a user function; But I'll get stuck with
  permission as a user function is running under the "postgres" or whatever
  user instead of the calling user.
 
  Also, what kind of binary interface are you thinking of??

 Something similar to the existing lo_...() functions.

 Actually,  someone  should  use the existing large objects to
 deal with binary content.  What has to be kept in mind is

 1.  You have to cleanup yourself - the existing large objects
 aren't  removed  automatically  if you delete a table row
 referencing to the LO or drop the table.

 2.  The existing LOs don't have copy  behaviour.  So  if  you
 reference  to  a  LO  from one table and do an INSERT ...
 SELECT, just it's OID is copied,  not  the  data  (as  it
 should be IMHO).

[HACKERS] Development of ISO19100 support in PG

2001-01-28 Thread Franck Martin

Hi,

The FMaps team is about to build ISO19100 support in PG, in particulary
Spatial Schema and Metadata schema.

The project is at its early stages, but most of the technical hurdles are
understood, so we are now left with coding the specifications. If you would
like to join or are interested, please have a look on
http://FMaps.sourceforge.net/ and inside the src/geoobj directory of the
CVS. 

The project will build an extension library to PG, which may be included
later in main stream PG if everybody find this stuff great.

Thanks.
