Hello, Pgsql-bugs. PostgreSQL version: 8.4.x Operating system: All
If RETURNS TABLE clause of CREATE FUNCTION contain column of character type (withou length specifier) it should be treated as character(1) according to manual, but it look like text. (http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/static/datatype-character.html) Example: CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION test_char_function() RETURNS TABLE(id int, salesourcecode character) AS $BODY$ VALUES (1, 'one'), (2, 'two'), (3, 'three'); $BODY$ LANGUAGE 'sql' pqfmod function from libpq library for salesourcecode column returns 0, which is wrong. Who can ever imagine bpchar of length 0? :) (http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/static/libpq-exec.html#LIBPQ-EXEC-SELECT-INFO) -- With best wishes, Pavel mailto:pa...@gf.microolap.com -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
