If someone has a better name that would describe the purpose of the feature, I am happy to change it. The feature is activated, if * \set IMPLICIT_SAVEPOINTS 'on' * connection is in "idle in transaction" state * psql session is interactive The code executes an implicit "SAVEPOINT pg_internal_psql" in common.c/SendQuery to which it will try to rollback to, if the executed query fails. Open questions: * Should psql print a notice in the case of that rollback? Something like "Rollback of last statement successful."? * What is currently missing, is a detection of \i ... obviously this feature should not be used for each query in \i. Perhaps only for the whole \i command? So what should I do to detect \i? Add an extra argument to MainLoop, SendQuery and process_file()? (many changes) Add a global variable in common.c/h (e.g. bool deactivate_implicit_savepoints) that can be used in process_file to temporarily deactivate the code path? (more local changes, but rather a hack imho) Please have a look at the patch and comment. Best Regards, Michael Paesold

I assume this is to be saved for 8.1.
This has been saved for the 8.1 release:

It is not remotely ready to apply yet, so please do not put it in the
queue.

That queue isn't for 8.1 ready-to-apply stuff.

I hope you will be willing to comment on the issues when times come. I am not really satisfied myself, but without further discussion I did not want to continue to work on it. Anyway, I understand this is not the right time now (8.0 beta). Best Regards, Michael Paesold

I think it would be wise to create a function to discover what savepoints are available, and from that know when to release an automatically- established savepoint. Of course, the function would only work when the backend is not in abort state, but I think that's a reasonable restriction. -- Alvaro Herrera (<alvherre[@]dcc.uchile.cl>) "Ni aun el genio muy grande llegaría muy lejos si tuviera que sacarlo todo de su propio interior" (Goethe)

Ok, that would need a set returning function in the backend, right? Could you help me write it when time comes? (I don't feel backend hacking savvy.) What about the resources consumed by savepoints a) that can be freed by a RELEASE (trx state stack, what else?) versus b) that cannot be freed (xid locks, anything else?) Is it worth the effort of extra work (not programmer's but runtime ;-)? Bruce, in Revision 1.1355 of the TODO you removed a line from the todo list that said: -Use nested transactions to prevent syntax errors from aborting a transaction I tought this is what I made a patch for, so shouldn't it be back for 8.1? Or at least something similar? Best Regards, Michael Paesold

The item was adjusted to be more specific: * Add an option to automatically use savepoints for each statement in a multi-statement transaction. When enabled, thiswould allow errors in multi-statement transactions to be automatically ignored. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 359-1001+ If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania19073
This has already been implemented in CVS as a psql \set variable:
ON_ERROR_ROLLBACK = 'interactive'
and will appear in 8.1.
