Hi guys.

How can I store session-local data in an efficient way (I need to store
every primary key/oid value for every changed row using triggers)??

I tried to use session-local temporary table, but it doesn't work with
PREPARE TRANSACTION...

Any ideas?

We might be able to relax that restriction so that you could use a "on
commit delete rows" or "on commit drop" kind of temporary table in a
global transaction. Would that help you?

Maybe a silly queestion, but are you sure you need 2-phase commit?

That would definitely help )))

2) Question isn't silly)) I don't need it right now, but may (with high
degree of probability) need it in future.

Bruce, could you add this to the TODO, please?

* Allow "on commit delete rows" and "on commit drop" kind of temporaray
tables to be used in global transactions
