Hi,
I have to update a row of data that is referenced via a foreign key
constraint from another table.
I cannot change the id of the referenced record because it is referenced
as a foreign key from another table.
Is there a simple way to update the row, and cascade the change to any
and all rows referencing this row as a foreign key? I searched on
cascade in the postgres docs and while I found references to deletion, I
didn't find one for updates.
Thanks,
Mike
