Hello icdevgroup. I was just wondering if there is a way to enforce
referential integrity in interchange databases if I am using Postgresql
with Interchange 4.8.6 and also 4.9.5? Can foreign keys be used and if
so how are they declared in the table configuration files in /dbconf/
Would I just have to run the sql statements after the postgres database
I am using with IC has built the table from the text table definition
files in /dbconf?
I am also slightly confused on table relationships in postgres? I
thought setting up primary/foreign key relationships would enforce
referential integrity? Where do Reference Constraints and Constraint
Triggers come into play and how do they differ?
Thanks for the assistance.
