Scott, You're right, of course. I meant, is there a way to make Postgres return the number of rows inserted to any child table _via_ the master table + trigger function? I have not been able to find a way to tell Hibernate to ignore the returned number of rows, unless I insert via a custom insert statement. /Mattias -----Original Message----- From: Scott Marlowe [mailto:scott.marlowe@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: den 5 juni 2008 02:01 To: Arbin Mattias Cc: pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [GENERAL] Insert into master table ->" 0 rows affected" -> Hibernate problems On Tue, Jun 3, 2008 at 7:38 AM, <Mattias.Arbin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > I have implemented partitioning using inheritance following the > proposed solution here (using trigger): > http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/interactive/ddl-partitioning.html > > My problem is that when my Hibernate application inserts to the master > table, postgres returns "0 rows affected", which causes Hibernate to > throw an exception since it expects the returned row count to be equal > to the number of rows inserted. > > Is there a solution to this, i.e. to get Postgres to return the > correct number of rows inserted to the master table? PostgreSQL IS reporting the correct number of rows inserted into the master table. 0. There's some setting in hibernate that will tell it to ignore that returned number of rows, but I can't remember it right now.
