Hi,
I got an error when I was trying to insert a circle using the syntax
(the 3rd one) specified in the latest document.
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/datatype-geometric.html#DATATYPE-CIRCLE
< ( x , y ) , r >
( ( x , y ) , r )
( x , y ) , r
x , y , r
Here is how to reproduce it.
CREATE TABLE tbl_circle(id serial PRIMARY KEY, a circle);
INSERT INTO tbl_circle(a) VALUES('( 1 , 1 ) , 5'::circle );
ERROR: invalid input syntax for type circle: "( 1 , 1 ) , 5"
LINE 1: INSERT INTO tbl_circle(a) VALUES('( 1 , 1 ) , 5'::circle );
I made a little change in the "circle_in" function, and then I can enter
a circle using the 3rd way.
INSERT INTO tbl_circle(a) VALUES('( 1 , 1 ) , 5'::circle );
INSERT 0 1
The fix does generate the same output as the other three ways.
INSERT INTO tbl_circle(a) VALUES( '< ( 1 , 1 ) , 5 >'::circle );
INSERT INTO tbl_circle(a) VALUES( '( ( 1 , 1 ) , 5 )'::circle );
INSERT INTO tbl_circle(a) VALUES( '1 , 1 , 5'::circle );
select * from tbl_circle;
id | a
----+-----------
1 | <(1,1),5>
2 | <(1,1),5>
3 | <(1,1),5>
4 | <(1,1),5>
(4 rows)
Sor far, no error found during the "make check".
The patch based on tag "REL_12_2" is attached.
