COMMIT()                         SQL Commands                         COMMIT()




NAME

       COMMIT - commit the current transaction



SYNOPSIS

       COMMIT [ WORK | TRANSACTION ]



DESCRIPTION

       COMMIT  commits the current transaction. All changes made by the trans-
       action become visible to others and are guaranteed to be durable  if  a
       crash occurs.


PARAMETERS

       WORK

       TRANSACTION
              Optional key words. They have no effect.


NOTES

       Use ROLLBACK [rollback(l)] to abort a transaction.

       Issuing  COMMIT 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:

       COMMIT;



COMPATIBILITY

       The SQL standard only specifies the two forms COMMIT and  COMMIT  WORK.
       Otherwise, this command is fully conforming.


SEE ALSO

       BEGIN [begin(l)], ROLLBACK [rollback(l)]
