I believe that's true of all the system columns. If you're using oid, for example, that's not assigned either until heap_insert(). This behavior doesn't seem unreasonable to me. A candidate row is not a member of the table until *after* it's passed its constraint checks --- until then, it's just some values sitting in memory. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
