Hi all!
Is there a simple way to add a "NOT NULL constraint" to a column without using
a trigger if another column is not null?
Something like this:
CREATE TABLE activity(
id SERIAL primary key,
name varchar not null,
created timestamp not null default now(),
modified timestamp,
created_by integer not null,
modified_by integer
);
alter table activity alter column modified_by set not null where modified is
not null;
I want a constraint which says: "modified_by not null if modified is not
null".
I know I could use a trigger for this, but I'm curious if there is a way to do
this with an index.
