Re: BUG #5883: Error when mixing SPI_returntuple with returning regular HeapTuple - Mailing list pgsql-bugs

The updated example is pasted in below.

The given example will cause an error. You may (for example) change the code in the stwitch statement like this, and it
willwork like a charm: 

from:case 1:    SRF_RETURN_NEXT(funcctx, get_data_alternative_b());    //get_data_alternative_a(ret, isnull);
to:case 1:    //SRF_RETURN_NEXT(funcctx, get_data_alternative_b());    get_data_alternative_a(ret, isnull);

understandyou, that should have solved the problem. The result, however, is exactly the same as before. 

You may get further if you post the modified code, instead of simply
asserting that some code we can't see doesn't work.
