Hello all!
Trying to emulate "named" user defined exception with:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION exception_aaa () RETURNS text AS $body$
BEGIN
return 31234;
END;
$body$
LANGUAGE PLPGSQL
SECURITY DEFINER
;
do $$
begin
raise exception using errcode=exception_aaa();
exception
when sqlstate exception_aaa()
then
raise notice 'got exception %',sqlstate;
end;
$$
Got:
ERROR: syntax error at or near "exception_aaa"
LINE 20: sqlstate exception_aaa()
I looks like "when sqlstate exception_aaa()" doesn't work.
How can I catch exception in this case?
Hello Alex,
The following workaround could be used:
do $$
begin
raise exception using errcode = exception_aaa();
exception
when others then
if sqlstate = exception_aaa() then
raise notice 'got exception %',sqlstate;
else
raise; --reraise
end if;
end;
$$
Not sure if its performance is the same as in simple exception catch, maybe it would degrade.
