Hi Alvaro, Hi Nigel,
Thanks for your reply. I indeed already tried with a plpgsql function. But
that's just my problem : if I call a function from within a view's rule,
this function is not executed anymore with the same rights as a user had on
the view. So if a user may access a view, but not the table behind, calling
a function in the DO INSTEAD- clause will not execute the function with the
proper (view) rights on the table ...
(to all) Could anyone - (developers, eventually ?) explain me why the
(security) context of a function call is not passed along when the function
gets called from within a view ? I think this feature is for sure not
superfluous, and I could consider having a look into the code to have this
changed (but I think this is a VERY big pile of source codes I never ever
looked at before, so this would take a lot of efforts ... for me)
Kind regards,
Philippe Bertin.
