The RLS capability is built on top of the WITH CHECK OPTION system which was added for auto-updatable views, however, unlike WCOs on views (which are mandated by the SQL spec to not fire until after all other constraints and checks are done), it makes much more sense for RLS checks to happen earlier than constraint and uniqueness checks. This patch reworks the structure which holds the WCOs a bit to be explicitly either VIEW or RLS checks and the RLS-related checks are done prior to the constraint and uniqueness checks. This also allows better error reporting as we are now reporting when a violation is due to a WITH CHECK OPTION and when it's due to an RLS policy violation, which was independently noted by Craig Ringer as being confusing. The documentation is also updated to include a paragraph about when RLS WITH CHECK handling is performed, as there have been a number of questions regarding that and the documentation was previously silent on the matter. Author: Dean Rasheed, with some kabitzing and comment changes by me. |

This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
