Hi,
I have a table:
CREATE TABLE werke1(
id SERIAL,
id_hr int4 NOT NULL,
id_wk int4 NOT NULL
);
CREATE TABLE contact(
id SERIAL,
type varchar(20),
);
Now id_hr and id_wk are all referencing the same table contact(id). In the contact table I have another column called type.
How can I write a constraint that checks that id_hr references contact(id) and the contact(type='t1')
and that id_wk references contact(id) and the contact(type='t2').
More explicit: the id_hr shows to the id from contact, and this line from contact must have the line type='t1'. The same for id_wk just the type is another.
I can write:
CREATE TABLE werke1(
id SERIAL,
id_hr int4 NOT NULL references contact(id),
id_wk int4 NOT NULL references contact(id)
);
but how do I check also the type column?
Best regards,
Andy.
