Thread: PLpgSQL variables persistance between several functions calls

PLpgSQL variables persistance between several functions calls

Hello everybody !

I want to know if I could share PLpgSQL variables between different functions and within different calls just using memory (not tables or other methods).

If it is really possible ?

Thanks in advance,

Chuck

Hi,
Maybe calling a function from within another function would be a solution to you.

Cheers,

the best way is to put all calls into one function and store values to variables..

if that is not suitable you can try the way (which im not sure if anyone uses) and it is to store values to sequences if value type is integer.
for other formats you will have to do conversions.
but im not sure if sequence values are stored in database or in memory.
that way will make your results visible to all sessions.
