pg_dump bug

Hi,

I think I found a bug in pg_dump:
I created a table like:

CREATE TABLE ut (       Azienda                CHAR(16)    NOT NULL,       ragione_sociale     VARCHAR(45) NOT NULL,
  indirizzo                CHAR(40),       inizio_attivita         DATE DEFAULT CURRENT_DATE,       fine_attivita
   DATE       );
 

and pg_dump modify the structure table as:

\connect - postgres
CREATE TABLE "ut" (       "azienda" character(16) NOT NULL,       "ragione_sociale" character varying(45) NOT NULL,
 "indirizzo" character(40),       "inizio_attivita" date DEFAULT date( 'current'::datetime + '0
 
sec') NOT NULL,       "fine_attivita" date);
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

If I try to recreate the table I have this:
ERROR:  parser: parse error at or near "'"

Any ideas ?

José

Strange, but the query looks fine, and creates fine here in the current
sources.  We had a quoting bug in defaults at some point.  What version
are you using?

It's not pg_dump's fault; it's just putting out what's in the system
tables, and "date( 'current'::datetime + '0 sec')" is how the 6.5.*
parser translates DEFAULT CURRENT_DATE.  (Which is inconsistent with
how it translates CURRENT_DATE in other contexts, but nevermind.)

The failure actually comes up because the 6.5.* parser can't cope with
"x::y"-style typecasts in default expressions; it translates them to
a syntactically invalid string.  CAST ... AS doesn't work either, BTW.

I have ripped out and rewritten all of that cruft for 7.0, which is why
it works now (more or less).  I dunno if it's worth trying to patch
around this particular bug in the default-handling code in 6.5.*.
It's got so many others :-(

Current sources still have a problem with this example, which is that
the default expression gets prematurely constant-folded:CREATE TABLE ut (d1 DATE DEFAULT CURRENT_DATE);
pg_dumps asCREATE TABLE "ut" (        "d1" date DEFAULT '11-19-1999'::date);
Drat.  I thought I'd taken care of that class of problems...

Hmm. I'm running a more-or-less current development tree, and don't
see a problem (on Linux also). Does someone want to track it down??

Although Jose may have marked the line causing a problem, perhaps
someone can more explicitly identify the offending syntax?

OK, seems like it is only 6.5.* tree and not development tree, which
means development has a fix that was too risky for 6.5.*.  Seems user
will have to wait for 7.0.

Fixed in CVS.
