Hi guys,
I'd really appreciate if you could clarify this to me. Let's say I have
a table named TABLE_A that is a bridge to many-to-many relationship
between TABLE_B and TABLE_C, as such here is my declaration:
CREATE TABLE table_a (
table_b_id INT4 NOT NULL
REFERENCES table_b ON DELETE CASCADE ON UPDATE CASCADE,
table_c_id INT4 NOT NULL
REFERENCES table_c ON DELETE RESTRICT ON UPDATE CASCADE,
CONSTRAINT table_a_pkey
PRIMARY KEY (table_b_id, table_c_id)
);
This will automatically create a unique index on the primary key.
Well, if I do a query later like:
select * from table_a where table_b_id=1,
will the query use an index? Will this be true when I do join on this table?
Thanks so much,
Serge
