Please, can someone explain how is it posible for ALTER TABLE to add a
primary key column to a table without some intruction that would make it
a real PK (NOT NULL and UNIQUE).
prueba=> CREATE TABLE nopk (
prueba(> textito varchar
prueba(> );
CREATE TABLE
prueba=> INSERT INTO nopk VALUES ('algo de texto');
INSERT 0 1
prueba=> INSERT INTO nopk VALUES ('otro texto');
INSERT 0 1
prueba=> ALTER TABLE nopk ADD COLUMN id INT PRIMARY KEY;
NOTICE: ALTER TABLE / ADD PRIMARY KEY creará el índice implícito
«nopk_pkey» para la tabla «nopk»
ALTER TABLE
prueba=> \d nopk
Tabla «martin.nopk»
Columna | Tipo | Modificadores
---------+-------------------+---------------
textito | character varying |
id | integer | not null
Índices:
«nopk_pkey» PRIMARY KEY, btree (id)
prueba=> SELECT * FROM nopk WHERE id IS NULL;
textito | id
---------------+----
algo de texto |
otro texto |
(2 filas)
So id is a pk with NULL values, which isn't right.
