Re: PL/pgSQL cursors should get generated portal names by default

Hi

I wrote a new check in plpgsql_check, that tries to identify explicit work
with the name of the referenced portal.

create or replace function foo01()
returns refcursor as $$#option dump
declare
c cursor for select 1;
r refcursor;
begin
open c;
r := 'c';
return r;
end;
$$ language plpgsql;
CREATE FUNCTION
(2023-01-09 16:49:10) postgres=# select * from
plpgsql_check_function('foo01', compatibility_warnings => true);
┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
