Is there a way to have something like this : UNIQUE (table_1.id, table_2.xxx)



Postgres doesn't support database constraints at this time which is
what you would need to do this simply.



Well, a simple way was to have a table_1-foreign key in the table 2. I just thought since there is:

table_1  <--1:n--  table_x  <--1:n-- table_2

and I hoped not having to add
table_1  <--1:n-- table_2
just to have uniquness of an attribute of table_2 and the key of table_1

You can enforce this constraint by creating a third table

That is more efford than to stuff the column into table_2.


Thanks anyway ;)
