Thread: error with "select from tg_relname"

error with "select from tg_relname"

Hello,

I'm trying to write a generic function for some triggers (full code @
end of mail)
It works fine with

    "select uid into same_login
    from USR
    where login = new.login;"

but when I try to do something like

    "select uid into same_login
    from TG_RELNAME
    where login = new.login;",

the function die with " ERROR:  parser: parse error at or near "$1" "

Did I miss something ?
(egh... I hope so... :) )

tia
(please CC me since I'm not on the list)

drop function uniq_login();

    if same_login notnull then
        raise exception ''Login already used'';

    return new;
end;

create trigger check_uniq_login
before insert or update
on usr for each row
execute procedure uniq_login();
