I want to create a function which use to truncate the table specified by the
caller. I very confused how postgresql pass this parameter into the function
:
as a superuser to execute :
1)
create or replace function d() returns void as $$
analyze;
$$ language sql;
----- this works when i issue select d()
2) this doesn't work
create or replace function v(text) returns void as $$
analyze $1;
$$ language sql;
why???? and how to correct it?
I tried another function for insert
1) this works.
create or replace function insert_f(integer) returns void as $$
insert into t1 values($1);
$$ language sql;
----this works when i issue select insert_f(20);
2) this doesn't work.
create or replace function insert_f(text,integer) returns void as $$
insert into $1 values($2);
$$ language sql;
---- it failed to create the function and give me error : syntax error at or
near "$1".
Please help.
Thanks.
Regards.
Grace
