Re: Patch for more readable parse error messages

Can someone remind me where we are on this. I seem to remember we have
to have db clients report the location because of problems with
interfaces handling the error output.

Hi,

Attached is a patch that will write out slightly more readable parse error
messages than 'parser: parse error at or near ""'

The format of the error messages is changed to:

jeroen=# create abc ( a int4, b int4 );
ERROR: parser: parse error at or near "abc":
create abc ( a int4, b int4 )
*
jeroen=# select * from t1 where a=1 and;
ERROR: parser: parse error at end of:
select * from t1 where a=1 and
*

The regression tests pass, except where this error is caught.

Please review,

Cheers,

Jeroen
