Re: [Proposal] Global temporary tables

[Prabhat Sahu]

Hi All,

I observe a different behavior in  "temporary table" and "global temporary
table".
Not sure if it is expected?

postgres=# create global temporary table parent1(a int)  on commit delete
rows;
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# create global temporary table child1() inherits (parent1);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# insert into parent1 values(1);
INSERT 0 1
postgres=# insert into child1 values(2);
INSERT 0 1
postgres=# select * from parent1;
 a
---
(0 rows)

postgres=# select * from child1;
 a
---
(0 rows)


postgres=# create temporary table parent2(a int)  on commit delete rows;
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# create temporary table child2() inherits (parent2);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# insert into parent2 values(1);
INSERT 0 1
postgres=# insert into child2 values(2);
INSERT 0 1
postgres=# select * from parent2;
 a
---
 2
(1 row)

postgres=# select * from child2;
 a
---
 2
(1 row)


Thanks,
