This is a good idea from most points of view, but it's annoying that it's affecting the returned command tag. I tend to agree that that's a bug, and that the tag ought to reflect the given command not any queries generated by rules. However, it might be difficult to fix. Fernando, does your command-tag patch help with this at all? Another thing to think about: if the given query is suppressed entirely by an ON INSERT DO INSTEAD rule, what tag should be returned? regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
