I used the command below to alter a table and it took with no problem, but the
REFERENCES appears to have been ignored since I can put invalid numbers into
last_post_id. Are there plans to add the ability to specify column
constrainsts with ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN in the future? For now, I suppose I
can use ALTER TABLE ADD CONSTRAINT to make a table constraint for last_post_id.I hope it will not make things too slow.
Are table constraints slower than
column constraints?
ALTER TABLE topic ADD COLUMN last_post_id INTEGER REFERENCES post ON DELETE
SET NULL;
