Thread: NT and aborted transaction

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hi all,
still experimenting NT:


kalman=# begin;
BEGIN
kalman=# select * from a;
ERROR:  relation "a" does not exist
kalman=# begin;
BEGIN
kalman=# select * from test;
ERROR:  current transaction is aborted, commands ignored until end of transaction block

I think the second begin shall fail instead of open an already invalid transaction.



Regards
Gaetano Mendola

We are not gonna use "begin" for starting a subtransaction, so this is a
nonissue.  Please apply the savepoints patch and try again.

If you have current CVS tip you'll have for me to post a new patch, in
the next hour or so, because the code has drifted.
