Re: Clarification on a Time travel feature

There is only one condition under which this would be useful.

Current Scenario:

BEGIN

Select x into var from inventory where y=const;

update inventory..

some more DMLs.

some select into var2;

if (condition based on var2)
   use the var;

END;

here i have to fire the first select query all the 100% of the time. Say if i have a feature to time travel within a transaction, i need to fire that select query on the probability of the condition based on var2 getting true.

After that implementation

BEGIN;
store command id and increment it into cid;
some DMLS
some select into var2
if(condition based on var2)
     select into :var as of  cid;

I know this is a small use-case. But if you think about it, the implementation is very easy. It wouldn't take much time to implement it.
