What is the conventional wisdom about routine reindexing with 7.4.6 and 8.0?
Is it still considered an important maintenance task? If so, how
frequently is it needed?

7.4 at least handles a lot of the reindex issues at vacuum time.
I assume 8 does the same.

I haven't seen a need to reindex since upgrading from 7.2 to 7.4.
Under 7.2, I needed to reindex once per month or so.

Hi,
I have a 24Gb database with half a dozen indexes against various
tables which is failing during the reindexing task (as part of the
maintenance plan) at least 80% of the time.
The error given in the logs is:
" Error 0: This server has
been disconnected. You must reconnect to perform this operation."

I have read much posts on the argument but no one

Simply I have a routine which reads from a text

The first array in the file has known dimension,

compile time) of all the other arrays.
So I can allocate memory only after reading the

I'm getting the following error - not always, only randomly - when I run a
certain routine (the routine is a simple executenonquery and it appears to
complete despite the message) against sql server 2000:
"timout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the
operation or the server is not responding"
Anyone have any idea what causes this and how to avoid it?
Thanks for any help.

Very strange things are happening when I am reindexing a table. I did this
with postmaster running as a standalone. The index for the table prior to
reindexing is on a separate disk and I created a sym link (due to lack of
space). When the reindexing is done I see new files created under
/data/base/dbnumber/ but when I look at pg_class table it is pointing still
to the old index because the oid I get is the older one. What does this
mean?...

I am looking for a routine that can evaluate boolean expressions like:
IF/ELSE-IF (X1=X2 AND (Y=1 OR Z1=Z2))
IF/ELSE-IF (A$='Y' AND B=1) OR (C=1 AND D>E)
etc.
I can handle determining if the individual terms (X1=X2, etc) are TRUE/FALSE at runtime. I just need the routine that determines if the entire expression is TRUE/FALSE taking into account ANDs, ORs, NOTs and parens.

I'm a newbie. I'm using VS2008 & VB.net
I have a simple site and each page uses the same sub-routine. I copy and
paste to each page and that's no big deal but that can get tiresome. I was
wondering if it's possible to create a MASTER sub routine where all the
pages can call it and perform it's task for that page. If so, where would I
create something like that in VS2008?
Thanks!

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Overview:
Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
