Thanks Tom,
By the way, did you change the whole archetecture of SPI invocation?
I put
---
SPI_connect();
SPI_exec("create temp table tbl_tmp (n int);",0);
SPI_exec("insert into tbl_tmp values (1);",0);
SPI_finish();
---
after InitPostgres and before setsigjmp().
This works perfectly in my 7.03 and earlier version. That means, after authentication, we
will have a temp table per each db connection. User can use the client program to "select"
or "insert" upon this temp table.
However, the same code does not work in 7.1. Actually, I got some messages contradicting to
each other:
---
db1=> select * from tbl_tmp;
ERROR: Relation 'tbl_tmp' does not exist
db1=> create temp table tbl_tmp (n int);
ERROR: Relation 'tbl_tmp' already exists
db1=>
---
Can you please give us some hints on what's going on here?
Thanks
