Hi list,
i have a table with a column where the default value is current_timestamp, but somehow all the tuples (around 8.000.000) have the same timestamp, which is, honestly speaking, not what i intended to do. So is the current_timestamp function only executed when the insert statement starts? I mean of course i can change it and insert the current_timestamp explicitly in every tuple, i just would like to know why it doesn't work the way i wanted it to work...
Thanks!
Chris
