POSTGRESQL BUG REPORT TEMPLATE
============================================================================
Your name : Adam Boileau
Your email address : metlstrm(at)ihug(dot)co(dot)nz
postgres(at)euclid(dot)ihug(dot)co(dot)nz
System Configuration
---------------------
Architecture (example: Intel Pentium) : Dual Intel P2
Operating System (example: Linux 2.0.26 ELF) : Linux 2.2.10
PostgreSQL version (example: PostgreSQL-6.5.3): PostgreSQL-6.5.3
Compiler used (example: gcc 2.8.0) : gcc 2.95.1
Please enter a FULL description of your problem:
------------------------------------------------
Creating a sequence whose maxvalue is > signed-4-byte-int-max generates a parse error.
Inserting the same value into an int8 field works, however.
Conclusion: create sequence doesnt parse > int4, but insert does.
Please describe a way to repeat the problem. Please try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
euclid=> create table test (Im_big int8);
CREATE
--Insert int4-max + 1
euclid=> insert into test values (2147483648);
INSERT 192329 1
--Create a sequence whose maxval is int4-max
euclid=> create sequence im_big_seq maxvalue 2147483647;
CREATE
--Hmm, works great.
euclid=> drop sequence im_big_seq;
DROP
--Create a sequence whose maxval is int4-max + 1
euclid=> create sequence im_big_seq maxvalue 2147483648;
ERROR: parser: parse error at or near "2147483648"
ERROR: parser: parse error at or near "2147483648"
--No sir, I dont like it.
