There's a bit of support work that needs to come first (inherited unique constraints) and a fair amount of work on the fk stuff itself. I think that getting the fk to completely work on normal tables (there are still some problem cases with deferred constraints and the constraints really should be referencing oids and shouldn't use a self-conflicting lock for locking rows) probably happens first. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: 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
