2. Using this function, if we provide any "NULL" argument to the function, we should either skip it or report it. I see this is what the function is doing.
postgres=# SELECT pg_report_log('INFO', 'NULL', false, 'NULL', 'NULL'); INFO: NULL DETAIL: NULL /-- Are you suggesting to change this behaviour/ HINT: NULL
It should operate the same as what was decided for RAISE.
I'd say it should also support the remaining RAISE options as well (COLUMN, CONSTRAINT, DATATYPE, TABLE, SCHEMA).
I think hide_statement is a better name than ishidestmt. It would be nice if RAISE supported that too...
I think the function should also allow specifying a condition name instead of a SQL state, same as RAISE does.
In other words, this function and raise should operate exactly the same unless there's a really strong reason not to. Otherwise it's just going to create confusion.
Thanks Jim,
That make sense to me. Let me cover these options too, and will update here.
