Incorrect value for UNIQUE_CONSTRAINT_NAME in REFERENTIAL_CONSTRAINTS
- by van
I am listing all FK constraints for a given table using INFORMATION_SCHEMA set of views with the following query:
SELECT X.UNIQUE_CONSTRAINT_NAME,
"C".*, "X".*
FROM "INFORMATION_SCHEMA"."KEY_COLUMN_USAGE" AS "C"
INNER JOIN "INFORMATION_SCHEMA"."REFERENTIAL_CONSTRAINTS" AS "X"
ON "C"."CONSTRAINT_NAME" = "X"."CONSTRAINT_NAME"
AND "C"."TABLE_NAME" = 'MY_TABLE'
AND "C"."TABLE_SCHEMA" = 'MY_SCHEMA'
Everything works perfectly well, but for one particular constraint the value of UNIQUE_CONSTRAINT_NAME column is wrong, and I need it in order to find additional information from the referenced Column. Basically, for most of the rows the UNIQUE_CONSTRAINT_NAME contains the name of the unique constraint (or PK) in the referenced table, but for one particular FK it is the name of some other unique constraint.
I dropped and re-created the FK - did not help.
My assumption is that the meta-data is somehow screwed. Is there a way to rebuild the meta data so that the INFORMATION_SCHEMA views would actually show the correct data?
