END()

NAME

END - commit the current transaction

SYNOPSIS

END [ WORK | TRANSACTION ]

DESCRIPTION

END commits the current transaction. All changes made by the transaction become visible to others and are guaranteed to be durable if a crash occurs. This command is a PostgreSQL extension that is equivalent to COMMIT [commit(5)].

PARAMETERS

WORK TRANSACTION Optional key words. They have no effect.

NOTES

Use ROLLBACK [rollback(5)] to abort a transaction. Issuing END when not inside a transaction does no harm, but it will provoke a warning message.

EXAMPLES

To commit the current transaction and make all changes permanent: END;

COMPATIBILITY

END is a PostgreSQL extension that provides functionality equivalent to COMMIT [commit(5)], which is specified in the SQL standard.

SEE ALSO

BEGIN [begin(5)], COMMIT [commit(l)], ROLLBACK [rollback(l)]
