Here we go (if memory serves ;-)
create table a ( num int4, name text );
create table b ( num int4, name text );
rule to insert into b instead of a:
CREATE RULE redirect AS ON insert TO a DO INSTEAD insert into b values (
new.num, new.name );
... the INSTEAD is important!
BTW: is it really necessary to list all fields in the instead part? Anyone?
when finished vacuuming a, do a
DROP RULE redirect;
of course, when you have more/other fields in your table, you need to
change rule's definition.
Hope this helps, Joerg
