Constrain a table to only 1 row
I needed a table that could only ever have one row – if anyone tried to insert a second row they’d get an error.
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX only_one_row_allowed ON mytable (1);
Testing it:
INSERT INTO mytable VALUES ('x');
ORA-00001: unique constraint (SCOTT.ONLY_ONE_ROW_ALLOWED) violated
