3    The view <code class="literal">check_constraints</code> contains all check
4    constraints, either defined on a table or on a domain, that are
5    owned by a currently enabled role.  (The owner of the table or
6    domain is the owner of the constraint.)
7   </p><p>
8    The SQL standard considers not-null constraints to be check constraints
9    with a <code class="literal">CHECK (<em class="replaceable"><code>column_name</code></em> IS NOT
10    NULL)</code> expression.  So not-null constraints are also included here
11    and don't have a separate view.
