[GENERAL] UPDATE statement with syntax error doesn't raise a warning?

2009-09-25 Thread Mirko Pace
I've ran an update statement like this (obviously wrong, I know!): update my_table set boolean_field = true AND my_notes = 'something' where id in (select id from my_table order by random() limit 4000); in my psql client and I had a "UPDATE 4000" result but, correctly, anything was changed

ines (then supervisioned classification) and I'm using PgSQL extensively, mainly the FTS functionalities, of course ;) My method is a little bit unstable and "rough" in categorization, so I'm looking for a "trigger" to improve it. Thank you! Mirko Pace

Why not call a function that make an insert as "insert into dummy values ('Start',now())" ? Mirko On Thu, Feb 19, 2009 at 5:37 PM, SHARMILA JOTHIRAJAH wrote: > Hi, > I want to find the time taken by this process ...retrieving data from > oracle database using java and copying that to postgres
