It's not very well-defined, for instance what would you report for CHECK some_black_box_function(a, b, c+d) FKs are constrained by the spec syntax to only involve simple column values, but this is not the case for either CHECK or unique indexes. Unique partial indexes would make things even more interesting. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
