Re: [PATCHES] [HACKERS] Function structure in formatting.c

I found one thing that seems to be a mistake (probably an overenthusiastic searchreplace): the patch changes - {iy, 2, dch_date, DCH_IY, TRUE}, to + {iyear, 2, DCH_IY, TRUE}, The removal of dch_date is intended, but surely the keyword should still be iy. I'm proceeding on that assumption, but if this change was actually intended, please explain. Nice catch. Not sure how that got in there, but your theory about a search replace gone awry seems the most likely. Now that the functions have been refactored, I'm looking forward to getting back into improving the sanity checking in to_date.

This is purely a refactor. The functionality of the file hasn't changed; it does the same job as before, but it does it in ~200 fewer lines and ~3.5k fewer characters. The clarity of code is greatly improved. Sadly, performance appears to be unchanged. Summary of changes: * Did away with dch_global, dch_date and dch_time. * Replaced DCH_processor with two new functions DCH_to_char and DCH_from_char, which now do all the work previously done by dch_{global,date,time}. * Removed the 'action' field from the KeyWord struct as it is no longer useful. * Changed the type of the 'character' field in the FormatNode struct to char, because ... that's what it is. The original choice of 'int' seems to have been an error. * Removed commented-out function declaration for is_acdc. According to CVS annotate, this hasn't been in use since sometime in the early Cretaceous period, and in any case I don't know why you'd want to check whether a string was the rock band AC/DC. =) * Reworded some of the comments for clarity. * Didn't touch any of the number formatting routines. This compiles cleanly on x86 gentoo and passes check, installcheck and installcheck-parallel.
