From 33f5bf97009811d7f6b5408e37c6ad68110985b0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Lane Date: Thu, 4 Aug 2005 01:09:29 +0000 Subject: ALTER TABLE OWNER must change the ownership of the table's rowtype too. This was not especially critical before, but it is now that we track ownership dependencies --- the dependency for the rowtype *must* shift to the new owner. Spotted by Bernd Helmle. Also fix a problem introduced by recent change to allow non-superusers to do ALTER OWNER in some cases: if the table had a toast table, ALTER OWNER failed *even for superusers*, because the test being applied would conclude that the new would-be owner had no create rights on pg_toast. A side-effect of the fix is to disallow changing the ownership of indexes or toast tables separately from their parent table, which seems a good idea on the whole. --- doc/src/sgml/ref/alter_table.sgml | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'doc/src') diff --git a/doc/src/sgml/ref/alter_table.sgml b/doc/src/sgml/ref/alter_table.sgml index 26dabbb79ec..8e1d2984249 100644 --- a/doc/src/sgml/ref/alter_table.sgml +++ b/doc/src/sgml/ref/alter_table.sgml @@ -1,5 +1,5 @@ @@ -235,7 +235,7 @@ where action is one of: OWNER - This form changes the owner of the table, index, sequence, or view to the + This form changes the owner of the table, sequence, or view to the specified user. -- cgit v1.2.3
