Hi, I don't use rules, but in a bit of experimentation on Git master, I discovered the following behaviour:
CREATE TABLE test1 (id serial primary key, things text); CREATE TABLE test2 (id serial primary key, things text); ALTER TABLE test1 DROP CONSTRAINT test1_pkey; ALTER TABLE test2 DROP CONSTRAINT test2_pkey; CREATE RULE "_RETURN" AS ON SELECT TO test1 DO INSTEAD select * from test2; This produces the error message: could not convert table "test1" to a view because it has indexes There are no indexes or primary keys on either table by the time the rule creation statement runs. If creating the same 2 tables without originally giving them primary keys, this rule creates successfully. -- Thom Brown Twitter: @darkixion IRC (freenode): dark_ixion Registered Linux user: #516935 EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
