Re: Altering a table with a rowtype column

works for me -- what version are you on?

merlin

------

[wcs1459@aclnx-cisp01 ~]$ psql --version

psql (PostgreSQL) 9.1.1

contains support for command-line editing

[wcs1459@aclnx-cisp01 ~]$ cat x

create table a (

  id serial,

  stuff text,

  more_stuff text

);

create table a_audit (

  id serial,

  a_old a,

  a_new a

);

alter table a add column even_more_stuff boolean not null default false;

[wcs1459@aclnx-cisp01 ~]$ psql -f x

psql:x:5: NOTICE:  CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence "a_id_seq" for serial column "a.id"

CREATE TABLE

psql:x:11: NOTICE:  CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence "a_audit_id_seq" for serial column "a_audit.id"

CREATE TABLE

psql:x:13: ERROR:  cannot alter table "a" because column "a_audit.a_new" uses its row type
