The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 6043 Logged by: Emanuel Email address: postgres....@gmail.com PostgreSQL version: 9.1 beta Operating system: Ubuntu 10.04 2.6.31 Description: Compilation PLpgsql Succesful but execution bad Details:
postgres=# CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION p_() RETURNS TABLE (i int) AS $$ DECLARE BEGIN SELECT * FROM p; --<<<-- here must ne RETURN QUERY .. END; $$ LANGUAGE plpgsql; CREATE FUNCTION postgres=# select p_(); ERROR: query has no destination for result data HINT: If you want to discard the results of a SELECT, use PERFORM instead. CONTEXT: PL/pgSQL function "p_" line 4 at SQL statement I don't know if it's really a bug or a feature request. But seems that the function compiles well without checking the existence of a RETURN QUERY. I think the best in this cases is raise an error during compilation.
