END7
Commit the current transaction
Usage
END [{WORK | TRANSACTION}]
[AND
[NO]
CHAIN]
Overview
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.
Parameters
WORK
TRANSACTION
Optional key words. They have no effect.
AND CHAIN
If AND CHAIN is specified, a new transaction is immediately started with the same transaction characteristics (see SET TRANSACTION (SET_TRANSACTION(7))) as the just finished one. Otherwise, no new transaction is started.
Notes
Use ROLLBACK 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, which is specified in the SQL standard.
