Summary: rollback to savepoint in case of error
Initial Comment:
the current snapshot driver only supports manual rollback to savepoints
if ( and only if ) all previous statements return with success.
e.g.
My env :
win2003 server
8.1.0 postgresql
psqlodbc 8.01.0105
CREATE TABLE testtable (
f1 int2 primary key,
f2 varchar(10) null);
the following snippet works
BEGIN
INSERT INTO testtable values ( 12, 'hello');
SAVEPOINT SP_INSERT;
INSERT INTO testtable values ( 13, 'hello1');
ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT SP_INSERT;
INSERT INTO testtable values ( 13, 'hello123');
COMMIT;
the following snippet don't work
BEGIN
INSERT INTO testtable values ( 12, 'hello');
SAVEPOINT SP_INSERT;
INSERT INTO testtable values ( 12, 'hello1'); <-- auto rollback occurs !!!
ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT SP_INSERT;
INSERT INTO testtable values ( 13, 'hello123');
COMMIT;
Why does an error breaks the savepoint environment ?
By now I used an application side workaround as I do an select before
each insert to check if a certain row already exists in the table.
If it exist I try an update on the row.
( but this is a real performance killer ... )
