Re: triggers within commit cycles

Thanks Bruce,

So... commitment control is really cool and if
every application was coded using it we would
have more robust failsafe applications.

And triggers are really cool and allow business logic
to be an integral part of the database, rather than
added on with every application and every access
method.

But if you use commitment control AND triggers, how
do you make sure the right thing happens?
