Thread: PL/PgSQL and pg_temp pseudo-schema

PL/PgSQL and pg_temp pseudo-schema

From
Vincenzo Romano
Date:
PL/PgSQL doesn't know the pg_temp meta schema in case you need to
really work on that TEMP TABLE.
At the moment I had to move those DDL/DML queries within a "plain" SQL function.

Is this a feature or a bug? (Seriously, I mean! :-)

TIA.

Hi

It is little bit strange, it works for me

postgres=# create temp table foo(a int);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# do $$ begin insert into foo values(10); end $$; -- plpgsql
DO
postgres=# select * from foo;
 a 
----
 10
(1 row)

Regards

Pavel

Take note. Temp tables are only visable, available to the sessions that created them. You cannot access them from a different session. Is that the problem you experience> If not, please provide a specific example of what your problem is.
