I am attempting to make this test work.. I have three tables
CREATE TABLE test1 (
my_id int
);
CREATE TABLE test2 (
my_id int
);
CREATE TABLE test3 (
my_id int
);
And the function
CREATE FUNCTION addTest2Value( int ) RETURNS integer AS '
DECLARE
value ALIAS FOR $1;
BEGIN
INSERT INTO test2 VALUES( value );
RETURN 1;
END;
' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
What I am attempting to do is this
BEGIN;
INSERT INTO test1 VALUES ( 1 );
addTest2Value( 2 );
INSERT INTO test3 VALUES ( 3 );
COMMIT;
However I get a syntax error at the addTest2Value.
If I use SELECT addTest2Value( 2 ); from what I've read in the docs I believe
that that will cause this routine to stop at the select and return to the
libpq-fe C interface...
I've also tried PERFORM addTest2Value but that is apparently only available
within a plpgsql function...
Any hints?
Thanks, Josh.
