Feedback: DROP DATABASE

Open rajumb502 opened this issue 9 months ago • 0 comments

Page: https://cockroachlabs.com/docs/v25.1/drop-database.html

What is the reason for your feedback?

[X] Missing the information I need

Additional details

The doc says CASCADE (Default) Drop all tables and views in the database as well as all objects (such as constraints and views) that depend on those tables. CASCADE does not list objects it drops, so should be used cautiously. - it however does not mention how to list the objects that are affected by CASCADE option. If I do not use CASCADE, what happens to these orphan objects? Is there a way to list them and remove at a later stage?

Request that some note on this is provided.
