Trigger to identify which column(s) updated - Mailing list pgsql-sql

Does anyone know how to write a trigger that would identify which columns
have actually changed in an update (and then log them to an archive).

I suspect that the function would look something like;

CREATE FUNCTION FIND_CHANGED_COLUMNS() RETURNS OPAQUE AS '
BEGIN
  -- FOR EACH COLUMN IN THE RECORD:     -- IF ( NEW COLUMNx <> OLD COLUMNx)        -- LOG THE RECORD PRIMARY KEY,
COLUMNNAME, OLD VALUE
 
  RETURN NEW;
END;
' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';

In other words- How might you parse, in general, old and new records to compare like
columns?     - How can you find out the primary key of a record?

Thanks, Jack
