Please enter a FULL description of your problem:
------------------------------------------------
>From the documentation:
there is a current instance (for retrieves, updates and deletes) and a
new instance (for updates and appends).
my example below shows at least one situation where this is not the
case -- a rule on delete seems to create a 'new' class but not a
'current' class.
Please describe a way to repeat the problem. Please try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
(ent_base is an existing table with a column labeled eid, the
do_ent_cleanup function exists)
=>create rule cause_ent_cleanup as on delete to ent_base
do select do_ent_cleanup (current.eid);
ERROR: current: Table does not exist.
=>create rule cause_ent_cleanup as on delete to ent_base
do select do_ent_cleanup (new.eid);
CREATE
(the rule then performs as expected -- I haven't done extensive
testing, however)
If you know how this problem might be fixed, list the solution below:
