Re: temp tables and pg_pconnect()

hi adam,

thanks for your answer but here is part of my stored procedure:

------------------
CREATE TEMP TABLE res_tot (tot INTEGER);

sqlreq := '
INSERT INTO
res_tot
SELECT
count(no_dossier)
FROM ' ||
vs_lb
||'
WHERE 1=1 ';

IF surf_min>0 THEN
sqlreq :=sqlreq||' AND surf_hab >= '|| surf_min ||' ';
end if;

IF surf_max>0 THEN
sqlreq :=sqlreq||' AND surf_hab <= '|| surf_max ||' ';
end if;

IF prix_min>0 THEN
IF devise = 'FRANC' THEN
sqlreq :=sqlreq||' AND prix_franc >= '|| prix_min ||' ';
ELSE
sqlreq :=sqlreq||' AND prix_euro >= '|| prix_min ||' ';
END IF;
END IF;

EXECUTE sqlreq;

SELECT INTO resultat tot FROM res_tot;
RETURN resultat;
------------------

as you see, I can not create a normal table because of concurrency
problems. the solution would be to create a normal table with random
generated name but I could not retrieve a value from it with a "execute"
instruction... so I think it is impossible for me to use pg_pconnect() :-(

bye
