If the connection is sync, notices will be processed by pq_fetch()
downstream.
If the connection is async, here we have only sent the query: no result
is ready yet, and neither notices have had a chance to arrive: they will
be retrieved later by pq_is_busy().
Added tests to check the above statement don't break.
Instead, the code should be using the fileno() and poll() methods of
the cursor's connection. Handle the case when poll() is called on an
already built connection as a request to poll the asynchronous query
(if there is one) and get NOTIFY events.
Update the tests to reflect that change, add a test for NOTIFY.
Do it by keeping the reference to the last PGresult in the cursor and
calling pq_fetch() before ending the asynchronous execution. This
takes care of handling the possible error state of the PGresult and
also allows the removal of the needsfetch flag, since now after
execution ends the results are already fetched and parsed.
Without this a query that did not get flushed completely to the server
would cause cursor.poll() to always go into the curs_poll_send()
branch even if it was retuning ASYNC_READ.
Bug report by Daniele Varrazzo.
This hides from the user the libpq's implementation detail of
requiring the first select() to wait for the connection socket to
become writable and makes it possible to have a uniform select loop
for both cursors and connections, in which you always start by polling
the object and then acting according to the result from poll().
Idea and implementation by Daniele Varrazzo.
If there is an asynchronous query, polling a cursor that did not
initiate it will raise an exception. Polling while there is no
asynchronous query underway still works, because the user needs to
have a way to get asynchronous NOTIFYs.
When a large query is sent to the backend (and probably in high
concurrency situations), writing the query could block. In
this case PQflush() should be called until it returns 0. The test checks
this is done correctly.
POLL_OK has been changed from 3 to 0 to let the user specify a short loop
just as "if not curs.poll()" instead of having to check for write and read
separately. For an example of this, see examples/notify.py.
Some methods were forbidden in asynchronous mode, the isolation level
of an asynchronous connection is not always 0 and these changes
influenced expected test results.
It was trying to get all pending results from the connection and if
the client sent many and anyone except the first one would not be
immediately available the loop in curs_get_last_result would call
PQgetResult blockingly.
Avoid that by calling PQisBusy every time and telling the client to
wait for more data if it returns 1.
The CONN_STATUS_SENT_* statuses were not being handled at all, and
they indicate that a query has been sent, but not fully, so the client
should wait for the socket to become writable again and flush the output.
