SPI_START_TRANSACTION(3pg15)

💅 SPI_START_TRANSACTION(3pg15) 💅

okay so bestie, you've stumbled onto SPI_START_TRANSACTION from the PostgreSQL 15.19 docs. She's giving legacy icon, and we're gonna get into it. 🌸

✨ NAME ✨

SPI_start_transaction — the obsolete function. No notes. 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

void SPI_start_transaction(void)

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Real talk: SPI_start_transaction does nothing. Literally nothing. It exists only for code compatibility with earlier PostgreSQL releases. It used to be required after calling SPI_commit or SPI_rollback, but now those functions start a new transaction automatically. So yeah — she's retired, but she still shows up to the group chat for compatibility. 🫶

cute lil sign-off: this is the SPI_START_TRANSACTION(3) page from PostgreSQL 15.19, dated 2026. byeee 👑✨
