Hi,
I know that if you have a trigger and function then drop/replace the function the trigger needs to be drop/replaced too so that it can see the new function.
Is it the same for Ref. Integ. on table's too ?
If table B's foreign key references table A and you drop/replace table A then the reference from table B to table A is broken and needs to be recreated ?
In recent versions, you should not be drop table A without specifying cascade which will drop the constraint for you (and thus you'll need to recreate it). In older versions, I'm not 100% sure what'd happen, but you probably should drop and recreate it for good measure.
Older versions spit out a NOTICE and dropped the constraint, so they kinda defaulted to CASCADE.
