Before I get flamed for not RTFM I do know I can use a rule to do this.
Here's the problem:
I have a view that is made up of two tables.
When I delete from the view I would like the records to be deleted from
both tables that make up my view. What is the best way to accomplish
this?
Should I use a trigger or a rule? If I use a trigger how should it be
written. If I use a rule how do I put two delete statements in it.
I'd like to be able to do something along the lines of:
CREATE RULE view_raw_reman_prod_delete3 AS
ON DELETE TO view_raw_reman_prod
DO INSTEAD
'BEGIN
DELETE FROM reman_costraw1 WHERE prod_date=old.prod_date;
DELETE FROM reman_cost_total_raw1 WHERE prod_date=old.prod_date;
END;';
This doesn't work :)
I've tried splitting things up and using two rules however the second rule
always fails. I suspect that's becuase old.prod_date is set to null.
Any tips or advice would be greatly aprecated.
