Hi!, I have reviewed/tested this patch.
OS = "Linux ubuntu 2.6.35-22-generic #33-Ubuntu SMP Sun Sep 19 20:34:50 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux" PostgreSQL Version = Head (9.1devel) Patch gives the desired results(still testing), but couple of questions with this portion of the code. * if (conn->client_encoding_initial && conn->client_encoding_initial[0]) { if (packet) strcpy(packet + packet_len, "client_encoding"); packet_len += strlen("client_encoding") + 1; if (packet) strcpy(packet + packet_len, conn->client_encoding_initial); packet_len += strlen(conn->client_encoding_initial) + 1; }* Is there any reason to check "packet" twice?. And suppose "packet" is null then we will not append "client_encoding" into the string but will increase the length(looks intentional! like in ADD_STARTUP_OPTION). In my point code should be like this *if (conn->client_encoding_initial && conn->client_encoding_initial[0]) { if (packet) { strcpy(packet + packet_len, "client_encoding"); packet_len += strlen("client_encoding") + 1; strcpy(packet + packet_len, conn->client_encoding_initial); packet_len += strlen(conn->client_encoding_initial) + 1; } }* * * * * BTW why you have not used "ADD_STARTUP_OPTION"? I will test this patch on Windows and will send results. -- Ibrar Ahmed On Sun, Jan 30, 2011 at 10:56 AM, Heikki Linnakangas < heikki.linnakan...@enterprisedb.com> wrote: > On 29.01.2011 19:23, Peter Eisentraut wrote: > >> > Also, do we really need a new set of states for this..?
