A question about rules

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



So, I just discovered the rules system. As I understand it, it can be used
to rewrite queries before they are passed to the query processor.

I was wondering if I could use this to resolve a long standing frustration
of mine. I often need to declare a column as NON NULL, and create a
trigger/function to auto populate it with something more complex than a
simple sequence. This need arises fairly often for me, and I would like to
come up with a good way to implement this.

Sorry for such a newbie question.
