Hi all,
When RETURNING from a DELETE statement (or similar), how do you access the
results being returned?
Something like:
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM (DELETE FROM a RETURNING *) ;
sounds reasonable but results in a syntax error. I am able to return single
results into a variable or record, but not more than one result.
I could use a SELECT ... FOR UPDATE in the meantime (and then a DELETE), I
just wanted to know what the use of RETURNING * was if you can't do anything
with the results.
Thanks!
