It'd be good to have savepoints right now. I'm not sure it'd be good to expose the nested transactions implementation if we are going to offer savepoints later, because it means we will have to keep nested transactions forever. Maybe it is a good idea to hide the implementation details and offer only the standard SAVEPOINT feature. I'm not sure how hard it is to change the syntax; I don't think it'd be a big deal. -- Alvaro Herrera (<alvherre[a]dcc.uchile.cl>) "La conclusión que podemos sacar de esos estudios es que no podemos sacar ninguna conclusión de ellos" (Tanenbaum) ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
