Distinct types

От
Peter Eisentraut
Дата:
Here is an implementation of distinct types, known from SQL99 and
beyond.  They are like domains, except that they don't have defaults or
constraints and they do not allow implicit casting to their base type.
The latter aspect is what makes them distinct types.  They are useful to
create more type-safe database schemas, to prevent using generic types
such as text or int for everything and then mixing them in inappropriate
ways.  This is something domains are not useful for.  Much of the
internals are shared with domains nevertheless.  The difference is
really only the casting behavior.

To create a distinct type, just run

CREATE TYPE mystring AS text;

I expect I'll be using this.  Thanks!
I notice there's no documentation yet.  Do you have a reference to a
good description of the feature, consistent with your implementation?
If not, a couple questions:
(1)  Can you compare a literal of the base type?
(2)  Can you explicitly cast to the base type?

Documentation will need to be added, of course, but there isn't really a lot 
to describe: you create the type and use it.

No, unless you create additional casts or operators.

There is an implicit AS ASSIGNMENT cast between the base type and the distinct 
type in each direction.

Hmm ... so out-of-the-box, a distinct type would have no applicable
functions/operators whatsoever.  You couldn't even create an index on
it.  This seems a bit too impoverished to be useful.  And given the
known gotchas with creating functions/operators on domains, I'm not
convinced someone could fix the problem by creating specialized
functions for their distinct type.  Even if they could fix it,
having to set up a custom btree opclass in order to have an index
seems to take this out of the "easy to use" category.

Oh, I see, it doesn't have an equality operator for itself. That is
obviously limiting.

[ scratches head... ]  That should have failed, if the cast is really AS
ASSIGNMENT and not implicit.  If it is implicit, how distinct is the type?

That's an artifact of the fact that the patch tries to piggyback on
the DOMAIN infrastructure instead of implementing its own statement
type etc.

The overly close relationship between domains and distinct types seems
to also explain the fact that CREATE INDEX fails to fail.  It looks like
getBaseType() will happily smash a distinct type to its base, and Peter
has put defenses to prevent that into some but not all call sites of
getBaseType.  I'm not sure why he did that rather than having the check
inside getBaseType itself; if there's a principled explanation for
having some of them behave differently, it sure isn't given in the
patch.

This piggybacking is intentional in some way.  If you read the 
commentary on the SQL99 standard, distinct types were specifically 
invented as a better replacement for the domains introduced in SQL92, 
with the only functional difference being the casting behavior (and that 
you can use distinct types as function argument types, but PostgreSQL 
supports that for domains as well).  So even though the names of the 
object classes are different, they are really intended to be quite similar.
