[HACKERS] Please advise features in 7.1 (SUMMARY)

[John Huttley]

Thanks for your help, everyone.

This is a summary of replies.

1. Calculated fields in table definitions . eg.

    Create table test (
             A Integer,
             B integer,
            the_sum   As  (A+B),
);

This functionality can be achieved through the use of views.
Implementing the create table syntax  may not be too hard,
but not in 7.1...

2  Parameterised Triggers

Functionality is there, just that the documentation gave the wrong implication.
An user manual example of using parameterised triggers to implement referential
integrity
would be welcome.

3. Stored Procedures returning a record set.

Dream on!


Regards

John
