Bug reference: 19064
Logged by: Ketan Bhatiya
Email address: ketan.bhatiya@lenditt.com
PostgreSQL version: Unsupported/Unknown
Operating system: Windows
Description:
Suggestion / Proposed Improvement
PostgreSQL should validate column references at trigger creation time, not
just at runtime.
If a column does not exist in the target table (Orders in this example),
trigger creation should fail immediately with a clear error message.
The bug reporting list should not be used for feature requests. Those should be directed to -general.
It seems unlikely anyone is going to spend time on this though. You are expected to test what you write and this fails immediately and obviously.
