Kör sql-skript med ömsesidigt beroende

Du kan skriva en enkel rekursiv fråga som börjar med alla vyer som inte är beroende av andra och rekursivt lägger till vyerna som är beroende av dessa. Mata sedan ut vydefinitionen för dessa vyer i rätt ordning, och du har fått ditt skript:

   /* all views that don't depend on other views */
