COMMIT
COMMIT — commit the current transaction
Synopsis
COMMIT [ WORK | TRANSACTION ]
Description
COMMIT
commits the current transaction. All changes made by the transaction become visible to others and are guaranteed to be durable if a crash occurs.
Parameters
WORK
TRANSACTION
Optional key words. They have no effect.
Notes
Use ROLLBACK to abort a transaction.
Issuing COMMIT
when not inside a transaction does no harm, but it will provoke a warning message.
Examples
To commit the current transaction and make all changes permanent:
COMMIT;
Compatibility
The SQL standard only specifies the two forms COMMIT
and COMMIT WORK
. Otherwise, this command is fully conforming.
