Hi guys, im new with postgresql, and already got my first problem..
Well, I wroted some code for understend how the transaction works,
following step by step the manual.
TO make it short, i've created 2 tables, user and movements: in the
firs one there are the name, email and credit colons, in the second
the colons from, to, import.
So, i was triyng that way:
BEGIN;
INSERT INTO movements (from, to, import) VALUES ('mary', 'steve',
600);
UPDATE users SET credit = credit - 600 WHERE name = 'mary';
UPDATE users SET credit = credit + 600 WHERE name = 'steve';
--here comes the problem!
IF (SELECT credit FROM users WHERE name = 'mary') < 0 THEN
ROLLBACK;
END IF
COMMIT;
i always get the error
ERROR: syntax error at or near "IF"
Where am i mistaken?
p.s: dont focus on the example functionality, its just a trial for me
to understand the transactions.. and now, the IF clause...
