following code ..

IF SQLCODE != -942 THEN
RAISE;
END IF;
END;
advance thanks,
For hints and tips see:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/interactive/plpgsql-porting.html
In this case I believe the following is what you want:
BEGIN
DROP TABLE CONTAINER;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
IF RETURNED_SQLSTATE != -942 THEN
RAISE;
END IF;
END;
It would be even better to instead do...
EXCEPTION
WHEN blah THEN
NULL; -- Ignore this error
See other comments about the correct error code to use. Also, note that
this is a risky pattern; it will ignore that error no matter what object
generated it. I much prefer to also sanity-check the actual error
message to make sure the error is on the object we expect it to be.
