Hello Tom,
I would like to know your opinion about the way we should refer to composite
type params in functions.
For example:
CREATE TABLE emp ( name text, salary numeric, age integer, cubicle point
);
CREATE FUNCTION double_salary(emp) RETURNS numeric AS $$ SELECT $1.salary * 2 AS salary;
$$ LANGUAGE SQL;
How should we refer to emp in the following example.
CREATE FUNCTION double_salary(PARAM1 emp) RETURNS numeric AS $$
-- At this moment PARAM1.salary will fail because PARAM1 -- is compared to the name of this function SELECT
PARAM1.salary* 2 AS salary;
-- Would this be correct?SELECT double_salary.PARAM1.salary * 2 AS salary;
$$ LANGUAGE SQL;
Regards,
Gevik.
