yes, i was trying to do something like that, but it breaks always in the same
place, first I thought that it was because of the way I was assigning values
to the fields of my row, but now I'm beginning to think that the reason is
the way I pass the row to f2.
Here is the error:
franco=# SELECT f1();
WARNING: Error occurred while executing PL/pgSQL function f1
WARNING: line 5 at select into variables
ERROR: Attribute "result" not found
CREATE TYPE mytype AS (val1 INTEGER, val2 INTEGER, val3 INTEGER);
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f1() RETURNS mytype AS '
DECLARE
result mytype%ROWTYPE;
BEGIN
result.val1:=1;
SELECT val2, val3 INTO result.val2, result.val3 FROM f2(result);
RETURN result;
END;
' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f2(mytype) RETURNS mytype AS '
DECLARE
arg ALIAS FOR $1;
result mytype%ROWTYPE;
BEGIN
arg.val2:=2;
arg.val3:=3;
SELECT arg.val1, arg.val2, arg.val3 INTO result.val1, result.val2,
result.val3;
RETURN result;
END;
' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
what do you guys think?
