Hey Dmitriy,
thanks for your reply.

I've played the whole weekend with the rule-system, but it didn't work
for my case. I have a dynamic trigger, which takes cares about revision
of rows for every table, it is called from. It looks like that:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION versionizeContent()
RETURNS TRIGGER
AS $$
BEGIN
/* add new version in central register and insert new row */
NEW.revision := addContentRevision (OLD.content_id, OLD.revision,
sessval('user_id')::int));
EXECUTE 'INSERT INTO ' || quote_ident(TG_TABLE_NAME) ||
' SELECT (' || QUOTE_LITERAL(NEW) || '::' ||
quote_ident(TG_TABLE_NAME) ||').*' ;
RETURN NULL;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE 'plpgsql' VOLATILE;
Even if i drop the dynamic INSERT-Part and write it for every relation,
i wasn't able to figured out how to manipulate the NEW-Record.
The best i tried so far was:
CREATE RULE "versionize"
AS ON UPDATE
TO templates
DO INSTEAD
(
SELECT addContentRevision (OLD.content_id, OLD.revision,
sessval('user_id')::int) INTO NEW.revision;
INSERT INTO templates SELECT NEW.* RETURNING *;
);
But an Updates ends with the ERROR:
"ERROR: schema "*NEW*" does not exist"
Has anyone a hint how to manipulate the NEW record within an RULE?
Thanks,
Torsten
