You set the trigger to fire off whenever ed_expore.bv is inserted or updated.  Then the trigger updates ed_explore.bv, which fires the update trigger again, etc... .  Infinite loop.  No?
 
Maybe you just want to use a before trigger to set that value before the insert, then you wouldn't need the recursive after trigger?

Hi guys,
 
i got the following problematic : i got a table called bv that have some 'entry data' and i have another column that need to be calculated and put back in the table:
 
 
here is my table:
 
 
CREATE TABLE public.bv
(
  id_bv integer NOT NULL,
  c_vmax_actuel real,
  d_capacite_barrages_new real,
  CONSTRAINT "BV_pkey" PRIMARY KEY (id_bv) 
)
WITH (
  OIDS=FALSE
);
ALTER TABLE public.bv OWNER TO postgres;
 
 
i created a trigger that do the necessary computation:
 
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.store_bv() RETURNS TRIGGER AS $store_bv$
    DECLARE
        v_vmax_actuel          numeric(15,2);
    BEGIN      
    IF (TG_OP = 'UPDATE') OR (TG_OP = 'INSERT')   THEN
       
        update ed_explore."bv"  set
        c_vmax_actuel = ((d_capacite_barrages_new) / (30*86400)) ;             
    END IF;
    RETURN NEW;

    END;
$store_bv$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
 
 
the declaration of my trigger :
 
CREATE   TRIGGER store_bv_trigger
after INSERT OR UPDATE  ON ed_explore.bv
    FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE public.store_bv();
 
 
and now i start to insert my data:
 
insert into public.bv (id_bv,d_capacite_barrages_new) values (1,7324591);commit;
 
 
 
then the trigger got executed and goes in an infinite loop,here is the error that i got :
 
ERREUR:  dépassement de limite (en profondeur) de la pile
HINT:  Augmenter le paramètre « max_stack_depth » après vous être assuré que la
limite de profondeur de la pile de la plateforme est adéquate.
CONTEXT:  instruction SQL « update ed_explore."bv" set c_vmax_actuel = ((d_capacite_barrages_new) / (30*86400)) »
 
 
 
And thanks for you help
