1: content_item__del vs. content_item__delete
Posted by Gustaf Neumann on 04/11/07 11:47 AM
In postgres, we have both, a stored procedure content_item__del (doing the real work) and a content_item__delete (just calling content_item__del). In the oracle version there is only a "procedure del". Is there a reason for having the double definition in postgres? should not the __delete version dropped (or marked deprecated)?

Same with content_revision.

Only the __del variation should remain.

I believe the __delete version was left to retain backward compatibility, but we really should get rid of them.
