21 * Precise semantics of a dependency relationship are specified by the
22 * DependencyType code (which is stored in a "char" field in pg_depend,
23 * so we assign ASCII-code values to the enumeration members).
25 * In all cases, a dependency relationship indicates that the referenced
26 * object may not be dropped without also dropping the dependent object.
27 * However, there are several subflavors:
29 * DEPENDENCY_NORMAL ('n'): normal relationship between separately-created
30 * objects. The dependent object may be dropped without affecting the
31 * referenced object. The referenced object may only be dropped by
32 * specifying CASCADE, in which case the dependent object is dropped too.
33 * Example: a table column has a normal dependency on its datatype.
35 * DEPENDENCY_AUTO ('a'): the dependent object can be dropped separately
36 * from the referenced object, and should be automatically dropped
37 * (regardless of RESTRICT or CASCADE mode) if the referenced object
38 * is dropped.
39 * Example: a named constraint on a table is made auto-dependent on
40 * the table, so that it will go away if the table is dropped.
42 * DEPENDENCY_INTERNAL ('i'): the dependent object was created as part
43 * of creation of the referenced object, and is really just a part of
44 * its internal implementation. A DROP of the dependent object will be
45 * disallowed outright (we'll tell the user to issue a DROP against the
46 * referenced object, instead). A DROP of the referenced object will be
47 * propagated through to drop the dependent object whether CASCADE is
48 * specified or not.
49 * Example: a trigger that's created to enforce a foreign-key constraint
50 * is made internally dependent on the constraint's pg_constraint entry.
52 * DEPENDENCY_PIN ('p'): there is no dependent object; this type of entry
53 * is a signal that the system itself depends on the referenced object,
54 * and so that object must never be deleted. Entries of this type are
55 * created only during initdb. The fields for the dependent object
56 * contain zeroes.
58 * Other dependency flavors may be needed in future.

63 DEPENDENCY_NORMAL = 'n',
64 DEPENDENCY_AUTO = 'a',
65 DEPENDENCY_INTERNAL = 'i',
66 DEPENDENCY_PIN = 'p'
67 } DependencyType;
70 * There is also a SharedDependencyType enum type that determines the exact
71 * semantics of an entry in pg_shdepend. Just like regular dependency entries,
72 * any pg_shdepend entry means that the referenced object cannot be dropped
73 * unless the dependent object is dropped at the same time. There are some
74 * additional rules however:
76 * (a) For a SHARED_DEPENDENCY_PIN entry, there is no dependent object --
77 * rather, the referenced object is an essential part of the system. This
78 * applies to the initdb-created superuser. Entries of this type are only
79 * created by initdb; objects in this category don't need further pg_shdepend
80 * entries if more objects come to depend on them.
82 * (b) a SHARED_DEPENDENCY_OWNER entry means that the referenced object is
83 * the role owning the dependent object. The referenced object must be
84 * a pg_authid entry.
86 * (c) a SHARED_DEPENDENCY_ACL entry means that the referenced object is
87 * a role mentioned in the ACL field of the dependent object. The referenced
88 * object must be a pg_authid entry. (SHARED_DEPENDENCY_ACL entries are not
89 * created for the owner of an object; hence two objects may be linked by
90 * one or the other, but not both, of these dependency types.)
92 * SHARED_DEPENDENCY_INVALID is a value used as a parameter in internal
93 * routines, and is not valid in the catalog itself.
