L.S.
I'd like to prevent updates on a specific field when done during regular use
or during the execution of any non-deferred trigger, while allowing them when
done from deferred triggers. (BTW, we're talking version 8.1 here).
Currently there doesn't seem to be a way to know whether code is executed
during a regular trigger call or during a deferred trigger call? I.e.
something in the line of TG_WHEN and a bit more to the point then looking
whether TG_ARGV[] contains the deferred keywords.....
So, am I overlooking a way to get to this info? And if not, could this be
considered an item for the todo list?
Ratio: when deferred triggers on table A are used to calculate field values of
table B (which then obviously need an update), one might want to prevent
direct updates on these fields of table B
