Folks,
Perhaps you can help....hell I'm sure you can! I want to monitor for changes in a table and migrate the OLD. record to audit table.
Is there an elegant or generic way to do this so I can use across multiple
tables with little change.
You can use a rule to do this:
CREATE RULE cust_audit AS ON UPDATE OR DELETE TO cust DO INSERT INTO cust_hist SELECT OLD.*;
cust_hist should be identical to cust without a primary key or any constraints/foreign keys etc.
I'm currently working on an auditing system at present, and will be releasing it
soon if anyone is interested. It needs some cleaning up first, when I have time.
