SPI_START_TRANSACTION(3pg13)

✨ NAME ✨

SPI_start_transaction — the obsolete function, bestie 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void SPI_start_transaction(void)

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Okay so SPI_start_transaction literally does nothing, no cap 😭. It’s just vibing there for code compatibility with earlier PostgreSQL releases.

Back in the day it used to be required after calling SPI_commit or SPI_rollback, but now those functions start a new transaction automatically ✨. So yeah, this one is giving obsolete icon — it exists only so older code doesn’t break, periodt 🫶.

It’s a compatibility function, not a main character. It does not do anything when called 💀.

🌸 that’s the whole page, bestie 🌸 — from the PostgreSQL 13.23 docs, dated 2025, for SPI_START_TRANSACTION(3) 🎀💜
