Automatic fix is available.
What it does#
Checks for replace in trigger creation.
Why not?#
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER
simplifies the process of modifying existing functions,
as you don't need to manually drop and recreate them.
If you drop and then recreate a trigger, the new trigger is not the same entity as the old; you will have to drop existing rules, views, triggers, etc. that refer to the old trigger. Use CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER to change a trigger definition without breaking objects that refer to the trigger. It also maintains data integrity and consistency.
When should you?#
If you don't need to modify an existing trigger.
Use instead:#
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER.
