Subject: Problem with Rules
Date: Thu, 22 Jul 1999 10:35:59 -0400 (EDT)
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.10.9907221028560.5288-100000@saxony.pathwaynet.com> (raw)
I am trying to create some rules for referential integrity. A generic
example:
test=> create table one (id int4, name text);
test=> create table two (ref int4, descr text);
So lets say the "ref" references the "id" and I want to ensure update and
delete cascade when table "one" is modified:
test=> create rule one_delete_cascade as on delete to one do delete from
two where ref = current.id;
ERROR: current: Table does not exist.
test=> create rule one_update_cascade as on update to one do update two
set ref=new.id where ref=current.id;
ERROR: current: Table does not exist.
Apparently, it recognizes the "new" pseudo-instance but not the "current"
one. Please don't tell me "current" is not yet implemented.
test=> select version();
version
--------------------------------------------------------------
PostgreSQL 6.5.0 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc 2.7.2.3
Thanks.
