Thread: Returning number of matches on a query when using limit

Returning number of matches on a query when using limit

Hi. How would I return the number of matches found by a query, but when I only want to return 30 of them ? 

In MySQL there is a way of calling SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS to do this?

Is there something similiar that can be done in PostgreSQL ? Do I have to rerun my query?

Thanks / Moe
