[postgis-users] Does PostGIS use "domain" or "look-up" tables, similar to ArcSDE?

[Jesse Langdon]

Hello all, and thanks for reading my newbie question!

I currently have a "geodatabase" created in an ArcSDE/Oracle environment,
but I would LOVE to be able to use the PostgreSQL/PostGIS platform instead,
to take advantage of the WFS-T functionality.
However, a key component in my ArcSDE/Oracle database is the use of "domain
tables", which are essentially ESRI's term for a look-up table, associated
with specific fields.

Does PostGIS have this same functionality?  I've looked throughout the
documentation and mailing list archives and haven't seen any mention of
it....

Thank you for your help!
