Dear friends,
 
I had a look at www.pgsql.ru, looking for how to find out what user is calling the function - from inside the function. No luck.
 
Could someone enlighten me:
 
I have a stored function. I want to do the following:
 
if caller() = ''userA'' then
    return -1;        -- error
else
    return 0;
end if;            -- OK
 
caller() is the function I am looking for. Is there any function like this? If not, is there a way how to write one?
 
Thanks
 
Zoltan
