ROLLBACK [ WORK | TRANSACTION ] TO [ SAVEPOINT ] <em class="replaceable"><code>savepoint_name</code></em>
</pre></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.169.6"><h2>Description</h2><p>
Roll back all commands that were executed after the savepoint was
established. The savepoint remains valid and can be rolled back to
again later, if needed.
</p><p>
<code class="command">ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT</code> implicitly destroys all savepoints that
were established after the named savepoint.
</p></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.169.7"><h2>Parameters</h2><div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist"><dt><span class="term"><em class="replaceable"><code>savepoint_name</code></em></span></dt><dd><p>
The savepoint to roll back to.
</p></dd></dl></div></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.169.8"><h2>Notes</h2><p>
Use <a class="link" href="sql-release-savepoint.html" title="RELEASE SAVEPOINT"><code class="command">RELEASE SAVEPOINT</code></a> to destroy a savepoint
without discarding the effects of commands executed after it was
established.
</p><p>
Specifying a savepoint name that has not been established is an error.
</p><p>
Cursors have somewhat non-transactional behavior with respect to
savepoints. Any cursor that is opened inside a savepoint will be closed
when the savepoint is rolled back. If a previously opened cursor is
affected by a <code class="command">FETCH</code> or <code class="command">MOVE</code> command inside a
savepoint that is later rolled back, the cursor remains at the
position that <code class="command">FETCH</code> left it pointing to (that is, the cursor
motion caused by <code class="command">FETCH</code> is not rolled back).
Closing a cursor is not undone by rolling back, either.
However, other side-effects caused by the cursor's query (such as
side-effects of volatile functions called by the query) <span class="emphasis"><em>are</em></span>
rolled back if they occur during a savepoint that is later rolled back.
A cursor whose execution causes a transaction to abort is put in a
cannot-execute state, so while the transaction can be restored using
<code class="command">ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT</code>, the cursor can no longer be used.
</p></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.169.9"><h2>Examples</h2><p>
To undo the effects of the commands executed after <code class="literal">my_savepoint</code>
was established:
</p><pre class="programlisting">
ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT my_savepoint;
</pre><p>
</p><p>
Cursor positions are not affected by savepoint rollback:
</p><pre class="programlisting">
BEGIN;
DECLARE foo CURSOR FOR SELECT 1 UNION SELECT 2;
SAVEPOINT foo;
FETCH 1 FROM foo;
?column?
----------
1
ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT foo;
FETCH 1 FROM foo;
?column?
----------
2
COMMIT;
</pre></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.169.10"><h2>Compatibility</h2><p>
The <acronym class="acronym">SQL</acronym> standard specifies that the key word
<code class="literal">SAVEPOINT</code> is mandatory, but <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span>
and <span class="productname">Oracle</span> allow it to be omitted. SQL allows
only <code class="literal">WORK</code>, not <code class="literal">TRANSACTION</code>, as a noise word
after <code class="literal">ROLLBACK</code>. Also, SQL has an optional clause
<code class="literal">AND [ NO ] CHAIN</code> which is not currently supported by
<span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span>. Otherwise, this command conforms to
the SQL standard.
