Hello list, I'm trying to write a function that uses one of its arguments as
an input to an IN operator in a WHERE clause. I.e., something like:
-- ids are actually integers
CREATE FUNCTION foo(ids SOMETYPE) RETURNS [whatever] AS $$
BEGIN SELECT id, [other stuff] FROM table WHERE [other conditions] AND
id IN (ids); RETURN;
END
$$ plpgsql
I had wanted to avoid using the EXECUTE statement and dynamically
creating the query string, because 1) I'd rather not recompile the
query each time and 2) I'm doing a SELECT INTO, which apparently
doesn't work with EXECUTE.
Can anyone help me out?
Thanks,
Daniel
P.S.: Sorry if capitalizing SQL keywords is bad list etiquette...
