While fiddling with FK tuning, it was useful to be able to enable and disable the DEFERRED mode of constraints.
That is not currently possible in SQL, so I wrote this patch. Without this you have to drop and then re-add a constraint, which is impractical for large tables. e.g. CREATE TABLE fktable (id integer, fk integer REFERENCES pktable (id)); ALTER TABLE foo ALTER CONSTRAINT fktable_fk_fkey DEFERRED INITIALLY IMMEDIATE; Includes docs and tests. Currently works for FKs only. Potentially other constraints can be supported in future. -- Simon Riggs http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services
