is it possible to define user variables in session ?

or it is principially impossible in PosqtgreSQL
psql has variables, but in general we don't support session varibles.
You could create a temp table and put a value in there easily.
that's ok, unless i need to access it in a trigger.
No problem to use a temp table in a trigger (which is local to the
session), I do so myself. Still, session variables would be nice, making
coding a little bit more comfortable.
where may i ask a programming and perfomance question?
i think mailing such questions to "BUGS" is not a good idea.
Just use the pgsql-sql and pgsql-performance mailing lists.
