Hi,
Is there a way to delete all records from a table in mnesia within a
transaction?
This won't work because mnesia:clean_table/1 doesn't support nested
transactions:
F = fun() ->
{atomic, ok} = mnesia:clear_table(Tab),
insert_records(Tab)
end,
mnesia:transaction(F).
I know that I could do this:
[mnesia:delete(Tab, Key, sticky_write) || Key <- mnesia:all_keys(Tab)].
but is there a way to truncate table in one shot within a transaction
instead of iterating over all records?
