So to recap I'm creating a temp table fine. I'm EXCUTING an insert into the temp table fine. Then I cannot select from the table in the form:
SELECT INTO int1 count(distinct(value)) from TEMP1;
The following creates a table, populates it and selects from it using an EXECUTE. Does that help?
BEGIN;
CREATE TABLE exectest (a integer, b text, PRIMARY KEY (a)); COPY exectest FROM stdin; 1 aaa 2 bbb 3 ccc \.
CREATE FUNCTION demo_exec_fn() RETURNS boolean AS ' DECLARE r RECORD; BEGIN FOR r IN EXECUTE ''SELECT * FROM exectest'' LOOP RAISE NOTICE ''a=%, b=%'', r.a, r.b; END LOOP; RETURN true; END ' LANGUAGE plpgsql;
SELECT demo_exec_fn();
COMMIT;
