Hi, how about this one? SELECT n.nspname, c.relname, a.attname FROM pg_depend d INNER JOIN pg_class c ON (c.oid = refobjid) INNER JOIN pg_attribute a ON (c.oid = a.attrelid AND d.refobjsubid = a.attnum) INNER JOIN pg_namespace n ON (c.relnamespace = n.oid) INNER JOIN pg_rewrite rw ON (d.objid = rw.oid) WHERE rw.ev_class = '"MySchema"."MyViewName"'::regclass ORDER BY n.nspname, c.relname, a.attname
This will answer for all involved tables and columns - not only produced by a view, but also involved in joins and sub-queries. Assumption: rules are deprecated and used only by PG internal engine (for views). If this assumption is not correct You should narrow pg_rewrite results to find proper rule. Reagards, Bartek
