ABORT [ WORK | TRANSACTION ] [ AND [ NO ] CHAIN ]
</pre></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.3.5"><h2>Description</h2><p>
   <code class="command">ABORT</code> rolls back the current transaction and causes
   all the updates made by the transaction to be discarded.
   This command is identical
   in behavior to the standard <acronym class="acronym">SQL</acronym> command
   <a class="link" href="sql-rollback.html" title="ROLLBACK"><code class="command">ROLLBACK</code></a>,
   and is present only for historical reasons.
  </p></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.3.6"><h2>Parameters</h2><div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist"><dt><span class="term"><code class="literal">WORK</code><br /></span><span class="term"><code class="literal">TRANSACTION</code></span></dt><dd><p>
      Optional key words. They have no effect.
     </p></dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="literal">AND CHAIN</code></span></dt><dd><p>
      If <code class="literal">AND CHAIN</code> is specified, a new transaction is
      immediately started with the same transaction characteristics (see <a class="link" href="sql-set-transaction.html" title="SET TRANSACTION"><code class="command">SET TRANSACTION</code></a>) as the just finished one.  Otherwise,
      no new transaction is started.
     </p></dd></dl></div></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.3.7"><h2>Notes</h2><p>
   Use <a class="link" href="sql-commit.html" title="COMMIT"><code class="command">COMMIT</code></a> to
   successfully terminate a transaction.
  </p><p>
   Issuing <code class="command">ABORT</code> outside of a transaction block
   emits a warning and otherwise has no effect.
  </p></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.3.8"><h2>Examples</h2><p>
   To abort all changes:
</p><pre class="programlisting">
ABORT;
</pre></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.3.9"><h2>Compatibility</h2><p>
   This command is a <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span> extension
   present for historical reasons. <code class="command">ROLLBACK</code> is the
   equivalent standard SQL command.
