José María Fernández González ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) reports a bug with a severity of 2 The lower the number the more severe it is. Short Description PL/pgSQL triggers with parameters don't work Long Description The report is for PostgreSQL 7.1.2. When you create a trigger which calls a function with parameters, the system links against the function with the same name and no parameter, and if it doesn't exist it tells "function doesn't exist". Tests have been made with PL/pgSQL-encoded functions. Sample Code CREATE table a( b INTEGER, c TEXT ); CREATE FUNCTION cascaya (INTEGER) RETURNS OPAQUE AS ' DECLARE value ALIAS FOR $1; BEGIN IF value > 0 THEN RAISE EXCEPTION ''Value: %'',value; END IF; return NULL; END; ' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql'; CREATE TRIGGER case1 BEFORE INSERT ON a FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE cascaya(5); ERROR: CreateTrigger: function cascaya() does not exist CREATE FUNCTION cascaya () RETURNS OPAQUE AS ' BEGIN return NULL; END; ' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql'; CREATE TRIGGER case2 BEFORE INSERT ON a FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE cascaya(5); select proname,pronargs,oid from pg_proc where proname='cascaya'; proname | pronargs | oid ---------+----------+--------- cascaya | 0 | 1050555 cascaya | 1 | 1050554 select tgname,tgfoid,tgnargs from pg_trigger where tgname='case2'; tgname | tgfoid | tgnargs --------+---------+--------- case2 | 1050555 | 1 No file was uploaded with this report ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
