Thread: has_function_privilege()

Seems like a bug to me.

 PostgreSQL 7.4 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC gcc (GCC) 3.2.2 20030=
222 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-5):

my_example=3D# select has_function_privilege('postgres', 'cash_cmp', 'execu=
te');
ERROR:  expected a left parenthesis
my_example=3D# select has_function_privilege('cash_cmp', 'execute');
ERROR:  expected a left parenthesis

Maybe a docs bug.  You need a complete function signature, since after
all there could be many functions named cash_cmp:

regression=# select has_function_privilege('postgres', 'cash_cmp(money,money)', 'execute');
 has_function_privilege

 t
(1 row)

The documentation for has_function_privilege() is desperately in need of
an example, methinks.  [ checks CVS logs... ]  Hmm, looks like this is
my fault, too :-(.  I'll get on it.
