Update needed for documentation

Hi all,

Spotted the following line in the 7.1 Interactive docs, not sure if it's
been updated :

"As of the current release (v7.0), STATEMENT triggers are not
implemented."

It's in the PostgreSQL Doc page which explains "CREATE TRIGGER".

I see in command/trigger.c:

if (stmt->row)
TRIGGER_SETT_ROW(tgtype);
else
elog(ERROR, "CreateTrigger: STATEMENT triggers are unimplemented, yet");

We have per-row triggers but not per-statement triggers. Seems we use
RULEs for those.

I understand now, and you are correct. There is no reason to mention
the release version in the docs, in most cases. Attached patch applied.

Thanks.

Hi Bruce,

My point was to get the documentation updated, not anything else. Probably
we should bump the statement in the doc's to say "7.1.2".

:-)

Regards and best wishes,
