Hi: I posted this in pgsql-general last week, but I got no answer. Maybe I have better luck this time? TIA. -- Alvaro Herrera (<alvherre[@]protecne.cl>) ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Tue, 21 Nov 2000 17:26:54 -0300 (CLST) From: Alvaro Herrera <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [GENERAL] DROP TABLE, and children? Hi: If I'm creating some inherited tables from a parent, rwtest=> CREATE TABLE test (col1 INTEGER); CREATE rwtest=> CREATE TABLE testchld () INHERITS (test); CREATE and then try to drop the parent, it says rwtest=> DROP TABLE test; ERROR: Relation '22057' inherits 'test' Is there some easy way to DROP all children tables? I was looking through some old archives, I found that neither UPDATE nor DELETE dealt with inheritance (some grammar that had to do with relation_name rather than relation_expr), but couldn't find anything about DROP. Maybe some query to get all relations that inherit from the one I'm trying to drop? TIA. -- Alvaro Herrera (<alvherre[@]protecne.cl>)
