Deletion scans the entries and either deletes the dependent objects or raises error. It's not "by hand" particularly, at least not for anything outside dependency.c. If you were to write code that deleted objects directly without going through the dependency mechanism, it wouldn't get accepted ;-) regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
