Hi Im engineering a PG database with my workmate. Unfortunately the inheritance feature seems not to be able to solve my problem. I have a table "order" with an orderID, each order has 1 to n types of articles, like services and supply articles with the same PK. The PK is order_number and position, the PK must be unique over all article-tables. All articles have 1 to n packages. I have a table art as the "mother-table". All article-tables inherit the PK and some other columns from that table. My problem is now that i dont know how i can make the PK on art unique and make a FK from packages to art.
At the moment im thinking about a workaround using triggers, but i wanted to know some other opinions on that matter first. Thanks in advance, Mario --------------------------------- NEU: Fragen stellen - Wissen, Meinungen und Erfahrungen teilen. Jetzt auf Yahoo! Clever.
