This event takes place just before ddl_command_end, and is fired if and only if at least one object has been dropped by the command. (For instance, DROP TABLE IF EXISTS of a table that does not in fact exist will not lead to such a trigger firing). Commands that drop multiple objects (such as DROP SCHEMA or DROP OWNED BY) will cause a single event to fire. Some firings might be surprising, such as ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN. The trigger is fired after the drop has taken place, because that has been deemed the safest design, to avoid exposing possibly-inconsistent internal state (system catalogs as well as current transaction) to the user function code. This means that careful tracking of object identification is required during the object removal phase. Like other currently existing events, there is support for tag filtering. To support the new event, add a new pg_event_trigger_dropped_objects() set-returning function, which returns a set of rows comprising the objects affected by the command. This is to be used within the user function code, and is mostly modelled after the recently introduced pg_identify_object() function. Catalog version bumped due to the new function.

|
|
* "Catalog version number" for PostgreSQL.
|
|
*
|
|
* The catalog version number is used to flag incompatible changes in
|
|
* the PostgreSQL system catalogs. Whenever anyone changes the format of
|
|
* a system catalog relation, or adds, deletes, or modifies standard
|
|
* catalog entries in such a way that an updated backend wouldn't work
|
|
* with an old database (or vice versa), the catalog version number
|
|
* should be changed. The version number stored in pg_control by initdb
|
|
* is checked against the version number compiled into the backend at
|
|
* startup time, so that a backend can refuse to run in an incompatible
|
|
* database.
|
|
*
|
|
* The point of this feature is to provide a finer grain of compatibility
|
|
* checking than is possible from looking at the major version number
|
|
* stored in PG_VERSION. It shouldn't matter to end users, but during
|
|
* development cycles we usually make quite a few incompatible changes
|
|
* to the contents of the system catalogs, and we don't want to bump the
|
|
* major version number for each one. What we can do instead is bump
|
|
* this internal version number. This should save some grief for
|
|
* developers who might otherwise waste time tracking down "bugs" that
|
|
* are really just code-vs-database incompatibilities.
|
|
*
|
|
* The rule for developers is: if you commit a change that requires
|
|
* an initdb, you should update the catalog version number (as well as
|
|
* notifying the pghackers mailing list, which has been the informal
|
|
* practice for a long time).
|
|
*
|
|
* The catalog version number is placed here since modifying files in
|
|
* include/catalog is the most common kind of initdb-forcing change.
|
|
* But it could be used to protect any kind of incompatible change in
|
|
* database contents or layout, such as altering tuple headers.
