Hm, I'm not entirely sure if you got the point or not. For either
relations or composite types, there is both a pg_class entry and a
pg_type entry, and their names *must* stay in sync. We could allow
people to rename both entries using either ALTER TABLE or ALTER TYPE,
but the general consensus seems to be that ALTER TYPE should be used
for composite types and ALTER TABLE for tables/views/etc. The fact
that there's a pg_class entry for a composite type is really an
implementation detail that would best not be exposed to users, so
enforcing the use of the appropriate command seems reasonable to me.
regards, tom lane
Yes, that's exactly what I meant (my language skills are not best).
Anyway, I am sending second version of the patch. Changes are:
- renamed TypeRename function to RenameTypeInternal and changed its
header comment
- throw error when using ALTER TYPE to rename rowtype
- split function renamerel to RenameRelation and RenameRelationInternal
where RenameRelation does permission checks and stuff and also checks if
it's not used for composite types and RenameRelationInternal does the
actual rename. And I also did a little cleanup in those functions
(removed unused code and changed some hardcoded relkind types to globaly
predefined constants)
- RenameType now calls RenameRelationInternal for composite types
(which calls RenameTypeInternal automatically)
Any other comments ?
