Importing data into views fails

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

 



Hi,

I've created an INSERT rule on a view
but when I try to use the COPY command to
import data into the view it fails with.

  cannot copy to view "viewname"

I can create a temporary table and COPY
into the temporary table and then
INSERT into the view by selecting
from the temporary table.  But that's
sorta lame, especially because I don't
want the front-end to care whether it's
importing into a table or a view.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Is there some reason why COPYing into
views is disallowed or is there just an
extra error check in the code that's getting
in my way?  If so, would the project be
open to accepting a patch?

Thanks for the work.
