Ran into something really unexpected, but then I've never tried using
inherited tables.
I have a master table (named master) that has two child tables.
create table master (
id serial,
foo varchar(20),
bar varchar(20),
constraint foobar_master unique (foo,bar)
);
Now when I do this with just a table, the unique constraint works.
But when I have child tables:
create table slave (
status varchar(20),
deleted boolean default false
) inherits (master);
I seem to lose that unique constraint. Which makes for a HUGE problem.
Am I missing something in the fine print?
