date when a tuple was inserted (start_date) and changed/deleted

CREATE TABLE XXX (
... ...
- date_on abstime default currabstime(),
- date_off abstime default 'infinity'
+ date_on abstime,
+ date_off abstime

);
-- so, tuples being inserted with NULLs in date_on/date_off will get
-_current_date_ in date_on (name of start_date column in XXX) and INFINITY in
-date_off (name of stop_date column in XXX).

Tuples with stop_date equal INFINITY are "valid now": when trigger will
be fired for UPDATE/DELETE of a tuple with stop_date NOT equal INFINITY then
(and with the same data in other columns as in tuple being deleted).
NOTE:
-1. To get tuples "valid now" you are to add _stop_date_ = 'infinity'

to WHERE. Internally supported TT allowed to avoid this...
Fixed rewriting RULEs could help here...
As work arround you may use VIEWs...
timetravel() is general trigger function.
- You are to create trigger BEFORE (!!!) UPDATE OR DELETE using this
-function on a time-traveled table. You are to specify two arguments: name of
-start_date column and name of stop_date column in triggered table.
-
-currabstime() may be used in DEFAULT for start_date column to get
-current date.
+ You have to create trigger BEFORE (!!!) INSERT OR UPDATE OR DELETE using
+this function on a time-traveled table. You have to specify two arguments:
+name of start_date column and name of stop_date column in triggered table.
set_timetravel() allows you turn time-travel ON/OFF for a table:
old status).
set_timetravel('XXX', 0) will turn TT OFF for table XXX (-"-).
-Turning TT OFF allows you do with a table ALL what you want.
+Turning TT OFF allows you do with a table ALL what you want!
There is example in timetravel.example.
To CREATE FUNCTIONs use timetravel.sql (will be made by gmake from
timetravel.source).
+
+
+3. autoinc.c - function for implementing AUTOINCREMENT/IDENTITY feature.
+
+ You have to create BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE trigger using function
+autoinc(). You have to specify as function arguments: column name
+(of int4 type) for which you want to get this feature and name of
+SEQUENCE from which next value has to be fetched when NULL or 0
+value is being inserted into column (, ... - you are able to specify
+as many column/sequence pairs as you need).
