I'd like to know when I create a primary key on a table, does postgres will create automatically an index on that table related to the primary key columns, or I have to create it explicitly ?
From http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/indexes-unique.html :
"PostgreSQL automatically creates a unique index when a unique constraint or a primary key is defined for a table. The index covers the columns that make up the primary key or unique columns (a multicolumn index, if appropriate), and is the mechanism that enforces the constraint." ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
