Hi,
i've read several books extract about controlling loops in postgreSQL under pl/pgsql and there is something interesting.
once to do a comparison they use :
IF (ret == 1) THEN ...
once,
IF (ret = 1) THEN...
so are they both correct ?
comming from .NET/C++ world, usually we use '==' or '!=', so i expect that correct ones are '==' and '<>'.
moreover, when i check if the returned value "ret_email" from SELECT email INTO ret_email FROM tmp_newsletterreg WHERE tmp_usr_id = id_session;
i want to check if it is empty or not, so i do IF(ret_email <> '' ) THEN... but it does not work... every time it enter in the loop, even if it is empty string.
where is the problem ?
thx.
