ISN extension bug?

sh> psql
psql (9.3.2)
Type "help" for help.
# CREATE EXTENTION isn;
# SELECT ISMN 'M123456782';
M-1234-5678-5
# SELECT ISMN 'M123456785';
ERROR: invalid check digit for ISMN number: "M123456785", should be 2
LINE 1: SELECT ISMN 'M123456785';

With the attached one liner patch compiled with pgxs:

# SELECT ISMN 'M123456785';
M-1234-5678-5

I'm not sure whether the policy is to update the version number of the
extension for such a change. As the library is always "isn.so", two
versions cannot live in parallel anyway. If it is useful, the second patch
attached also upgrade the version number.

Also, I notice that there is no test for this module, so I do not know
whether I've broken anything, or whether there are other simular bugs.
ISTM that it is not the case because I could test other types.

Because of the complexity of the code (there are embedded automata with
plenty of gotos and pointer arithmetic), I find this astoundingly unwise.
If the code was cleaner/simpler, it would just find it very unwise:-) Thus
I would suggest to add to some todo list: "check that all extensions have
regression tests, and add some if not."

If you are not changing anything in the SQL, then you don't need to
change the version number.

Ok, thanks for the information. I understand that the version number is
about the API, not the implementation.

If so, there is only the one-liner patch to consider.

This patch doesn't apply anymore. Please submit an updated patch for
the commit fest.

In src/include/utils/elog.h there is an include for "utils/errcodes.h"
which is generated somehow when compiling postgresql but not present by
default. So you have to compile postgresql and then the contrib, or use
PGXS with an already installed version.

With this caveat, the one-liner patch (4 characters removed) reattached
does compile for me:

sh> git branch ismn2
sh> git checkout ismn2
sh> patch -p1 < ~/ismn-checksum.patch
patching file contrib/isn/isn.c
sh> ...
sh> cd contrib/isn
sh> make
