Hi there,
seems I don't understand how FOUND variable in pl/pgsql function defined,
when I use EXECUTE of PERFORM. There is no problem when I use plain SQL.
Below is a test I did for 8.4beta2. This is simplified script and I can
use plain SQL, but in my project I need EXECUTE.
CREATE TABLE db (a INT, b TEXT);
INSERTYTT INTO db VALUES(1,'one');
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION merge_db(key INT, data TEXT) RETURNS VOID AS
$$
BEGIN
EXECUTE 'UPDATE db SET b='||quote_literal(data)||' WHERE a='||key;
RAISE NOTICE 'found:%',FOUND;
END;
$$
LANGUAGE plpgsql;
After successfull update I expected TRUE, as with plain INSERT
(instead of EXECUTE), but FOUND is FALSE !
=# SELECT merge_db(1, 'two');
NOTICE: found:f
merge_db
----------
(1 row)
=# select * from db;
a | b
---+-----
1 | two
(1 row)
Regards,
Oleg
