Modifying a partitioned table or a table with inheritance children fires
- statement-level triggers directly attached to that table, but not
+ statement-level triggers attached to the explicitly named table, but not
statement-level triggers for its partitions or child tables. In contrast,
- row-level triggers are fired for all affected partitions or child tables.
+ row-level triggers are fired on the rows in effected partitions or
+ child tables, even if they are not explicitly named in the query.
If a statement-level trigger has been defined with transition relations
named by a <literal>REFERENCING</literal> clause, then before and after
images of rows are visible from all affected partitions or child tables.
