Description: no keys in inherited table with primary key when
inserting into inheriting table
Details:
let me desribe a bug in the term of sql commands:
create table first (id int primary key );
create table second (f2 int) inherits (first);
create table third (ref_id int);
alter table third add constraint third_ref_first foreign key (ref_id)
references first;
insert into second (id, f2) values (1, 1);
and at last a bug insert:
insert into third (ref_id) values (1);
results in:
ERROR: insert or update on table "third" violates foreign key constraint
"third_ref_first"
if i get a select:
select * from first;
id
----
1
(1 row)
bug is: values are not added into primary key of the inherited table when
records are inserted into the inheriting table
