Default [Info-Ingres] set group ...why not? - 12-24-2010 , 04:00 AM






Hi All,

Given that wwe have access to a 'set role roleid' command, is there any good reason why there is no 'set group groupid' command?

Seems like an oversight to me.

And while I'm on it...

Why the hell can't we do a set role roleid inside a distributed database?

I can't think why it would not be a good idea. I've wanted to do it
myself from time to time.

I could be all cold here ...

Aren't your permissions evaluated considering all your group memberships?

Whereas you can only be in a single role at any give time?

I thought this was the difference between a group and a role.

Nope, you can claim the privileges of only one group at at time.
