Hello Guys,
I am having a scenario close to the one below, I have defined a function which depends on a view. I am able to drop the view, but my server did not complain about the dependency.
In the scenario below, one can drop the views a2 and a1 respectively, and when executing a3(), certainly an exception will be raised. I think there should be an entry for this dependency in the pg_depend table with dependency type normal
CREATE TABLE a (
id serial,
name text
);
CREATE view a1 as select * FROM a;
CREATE view a2 as SELECT * FROM a1;
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION a3 () RETURNS INTEGER AS
$$
select MAX (id) FROM a2;
$$
LANGUAGE 'sql';
DROP VIEW a2;
DROP VIEW a1;
SELECT * FROM a3();
Regards
