Ok, we're coming closer.
What I mean:
In which programming language is the *call* to
function foo()? Java? PHP? PL/pgSQL?
Could you tell me the exact statement that you use
to call foo()?
Why do I ask this? An example:
If you use embedded SQL to call the function, and the
input is stored in the host variable "inpstr", then the answer
would be:
EXEC SQL DECLARE c CURSOR FOR SELECT * FROM foo(localtimestamp,
localtimestamp, string_to_array(replace(:inpstr, '''''', ''), ','));
