Description: lastval in function
Details:
create table bla ( id serial primary key , name text not null unique ) ;
create table bla2 ( id serial primary key , blaid int references bla , name
text not null unique ) ;
create or replace function blaa( text ) returns int as $$
my $name = shift ;
my $q = spi_exec_query( "select id from bla where name = '$name'" ) ;
if ( not $q->{ rows }->[ 0 ]->{ id } ) {
spi_exec_query( "insert into bla ( name ) values ( '$name' )" ) ;
$q = spi_exec_query( "select lastval() as id" ) ;
}
return $q->{ rows }->[ 0 ]->{ id } ;
$$ language plperl security definer ;
select blaa( 'test' ) ;
insert into bla2 ( blaid , name ) values ( blaa( 'muster' ) , 'muster' ) ;
select lastval() ;
lastval

i expected lastval() should be 1, because this is the id from the
insertstatement.
insert into bla2 ( blaid , name ) values ( blaa( 'muster2' ) , blaa(
'muster3' ) ) ;
select lastval() ;
lastval

if nextval is used inside a function in a insertstatement, you get always
the value from inside the last function. but i expected, that lastval()
deliver the value from the insertstatement. i think, this should clearify in
the documentation, or better fixed that the nextval from an insertstatement
is called after the functioncalls.
