Thanks, Joe.
Now I use only persistent connection inside my PLPGSQL functions,
the EXCEPTION "ExecMakerTableFunctionResult: Invalid result from function
returning tuple" has gone.
The only problem left behind is it takes dblink function (such as
dblink_exec('update foo set f1=true'))
very long time to return(abuot 16 mins), in case if I do "extreme" test on
it(like unplugging the network
cable while dblink_exec() function is still working on remote host).
It seems to me this is a matter of libPQ (because connect_timeout doesn't
work in the case), but
someone told me this is nothing to do with libPQ, and it's possible a matter
of KERNEL and transport
layer of tcp protocol.(I don't really understand these stuff) Is this
true?(If this is true, then I have to
abort my project :-( )
Regards Frankie.
