Обсуждение: Auditing idea
Hey all! I had an idea to implement a very simple (IMHO) auditing mechanism for an application I'm developing, and thoughtsome people here could give some hints, opinions, etc about it. I was thinking about implementing update and delete triggers for all my tables that I want to be audited, and these triggerswould create automatically the auditing message for me. Basically, the update triggers would store the row valuesin the OLD and NEW rows, and the delete trigger would store the values in the OLD row. What you guys think of this idea? To me seems simple and good enough. /~\ The ASCII Felipe Schnack (felipes@ritterdosreis.br) \ / Ribbon Campaign Analista de Sistemas X Against HTML Cel.: 51-91287530 / \ Email!

You might want to take a look at this project: http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/tablelog/download/download.php There is another project similar to that one on gborg as well, but I don't recall the name at this time.
