SYNOPSIS
dblink_build_sql_update(text relname,

integer num_primary_key_atts,
text[] src_pk_att_vals_array,
text[] tgt_pk_att_vals_array) returns text
DESCRIPTION
-
Note
The following description applies only to Postgres-XC
dblink module has not been tested with Postges-XC yet. Although there're no reason that dblink does not run in Postgres-XC, the development team leaves the test and the use of this module entirely to users.
This section is identical to the corresponding PostgreSQL reference manual.
-
Note
The following description applies only to PostgreSQL
dblink_build_sql_update can be useful in doing selective replication of a local table to a remote database. It selects a row from the local table based on primary key, and then builds a SQL UPDATE command that will duplicate that row, but with the primary key values replaced by the values in the last argument. (To make an exact copy of the row, just specify the same values for the last two arguments.) The UPDATE command always assigns all fields of the row --- the main difference between this and dblink_build_sql_insert is that it's assumed that the target row already exists in the remote table.

Note
The following description applies only to PostgreSQL
relname
- Name of a local relation, for example foo or myschema.mytab. Include double quotes if the name is mixed-case or contains special characters, for example "FooBar"; without quotes, the string will be folded to lower case.
primary_key_attnums
- Attribute numbers (1-based) of the primary key fields, for example 1 2.
num_primary_key_atts
- The number of primary key fields.
src_pk_att_vals_array
- Values of the primary key fields to be used to look up the local tuple. Each field is represented in text form. An error is thrown if there is no local row with these primary key values.
tgt_pk_att_vals_array
- Values of the primary key fields to be placed in the resulting UPDATE command. Each field is represented in text form.

Note
The following description applies only to PostgreSQL
As of PostgreSQL 9.0, the attribute numbers in primary_key_attnums are interpreted as logical column numbers, corresponding to the column's position in SELECT * FROM relname. Previous versions interpreted the numbers as physical column positions. There is a difference if any column(s) to the left of the indicated column have been dropped during the lifetime of the table.
