The following bug has been logged on the website:
Bug reference: 11526
Logged by: Bryan
Email address: bryan(at)unhwildhats(dot)com
PostgreSQL version: 9.3.5
Operating system: Ubuntu 14.04
Description:
I need to access a temporary table created by a WITH statement in a function
called from the subsequent SELECT. I could not find any documentation
forbidding this behavior.
This is a self-contained example that should demonstrate the bug:
CREATE SCHEMA IF NOT EXISTS test;
SET SEARCH_PATH=test;
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION test.func(table_name TEXT)
RETURNS TABLE(id INTEGER) AS $$
BEGIN
EXECUTE 'CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE results AS (SELECT * FROM
'||table_name||')';
RETURN QUERY(SELECT * FROM results);
END;
$$
LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
WITH data AS
(
SELECT * FROM generate_series(1,4)
)
SELECT * FROM test.func('data'); -- This errors out
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS dummy;
CREATE TABLE dummy(id INTEGER);
INSERT INTO dummy VALUES(1),(2),(3),(4),(5);
SELECT * FROM test.func('dummy'); -- This succeeds
