Guess I'm an April Fool. When I define the following psql returns
"CREATE":
-- update all galleries that are categories with their skey and rkey
values
CREATE FUNCTION update_cat_keys() RETURNS integer AS '
declare v_row RECORD;
begin for v_row in select gallery_id,
imagedb_gallery_hierarchy_skey(gallery_id, NULL, '''') as skey,
imagedb_gallery_hierarchy_rskey(gallery_id, NULL, '''') as rskey from
imagedb_galleries where category_p = ''t'' loop
update imagedb_galleries set skey = v_row.skey, rskey = v_row.rskey where gallery_id = v_row.gallery_id; end
loop;
return 1;
end;
' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
When I call the function I get the following error:
devpps=# select update_cat_keys();
NOTICE: plpgsql: ERROR during compile of update_cat_keys near line 2
ERROR: parse error at or near ";"
The select in the loop runs fine in psql. So I'm stumped...
I'm pretty ignorant about plpgsql, I'm used to pl/sql.
TIA,
Walter
