Subject: [GENERAL]
I have a PHP script that runs this query on Postgresql 7.2.3. Once it
inserts the record in the e_catalog table it takes the id value and
then inserts it in the e_catalog_cache table, the two tables must
have
the same rows and values.
I thought rhat inside a transaction block the subquery SELECT
MAX(id)
FROM e_catalog was safe from concurrent same transactions, that
is
the id value from SELECT MAX(id) FROM e_catalog was exactly
that one
inserted in the previous statement, but reading some threads in this
mailing list I have some doubt now.
This is the query:
BEGIN WORK;
INSERT INTO e_catalog(id, name, descr) VALUES
(nextval('sequence'),
'$Name', '$Descr');
INSERT INTO e_catalog_cache(id, name, descr) VALUES
((SELECT MAX(id)
FROM e_catalog), '$Name', '$Descr');
COMMIT WORK;
Thanks.
