Hi,
I have a simple function that returns a set of rows:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION foo()
RETURNS SETOF record AS
$$
BEGIN
RETURN QUERY SELECT * FROM people WHERE last_name = 'jones';
END
$$
LANGUAGE 'plpgsql'
In a separate function, I call the function and store the results in a
temp table using this syntax:
INSERT INTO tmp_tbl SELECT * FROM foo()
This works, but I'd like to know if there's another way to hold the
results. Can I get the results from foo() and store those in a local
var such as
recs record[] OR
recs people[]
Or are temp tables the only way to hold table-based results?
