of <literal>UPDATE</>, and so on. For example, consider:
<synopsis>
UPDATE t1 SET x = 2, y = md5sum(y) WHERE z = 100;
</synopsis>
In this case we must have <literal>db_table:select</> in addition to
<literal>db_table:update</>, because <literal>t1.a</> is referenced
within the <literal>WHERE</> clause. Column-level permissions will also be
checked for each referenced column.

For columns, <literal>db_column:select</> is checked on
not only the columns being read using <literal>SELECT</>, but those
being
re
ferenced in other DML statements.
Of course, it also checks <literal>db_column:update</> or
<literal>db_column:insert</> on columns being modified by
<literal>
UPDATE</> or <literal>
INSERT</>.
Column-level permissions will also be checked for each referenced column.
<literal>db_column:select</> is checked on not only the columns

<para>
For example, consider:
<synopsis>
UPDATE t1 SET x = 2, y = md5sum(y) WHERE z = 100;
</synopsis>
In this case, it checks <literal>db_column:update</> on the column
<literal>t1.x</> being updated, <literal>db_column:{select update}</>
on the column <literal>t1.y</> being updated and referenced, and
<literal>db_column:select</> on the column <literal>t1.z</>, since that is
only referenced in the <literal>WHERE</> clause.
Here, <literal>db_column:update</> will be checked for
<literal>t1.x</>, since it is being updated,
<literal>db_column:{select update}</> will be checked for
<literal>t1.y</>, since it is both updated and referenced, and
<literal>db_column:select</> will be checked for <literal>t1.z</>, since
it is only referenced.
<literal>db_table:{select update}</> will also be checked
at the table level.
