But, other unmanageable error seems to occur even if a table has commonplace tree data(see below). I would think the patch, ancestor check, should be if (strstr(branch_delim || branchstr->data || branch_delim, branch_delim || current_key || branch_delim)) This is my image, not a real code. However, if branchstr->data includes branch_delim, my image will not be perfect. -- test connectby with int based hierarchy DROP TABLE connectby_tree; CREATE TABLE connectby_tree(keyid int, parent_keyid int); INSERT INTO connectby_tree VALUES(11,NULL); INSERT INTO connectby_tree VALUES(10,11); INSERT INTO connectby_tree VALUES(111,11); INSERT INTO connectby_tree VALUES(1,111); SELECT * FROM connectby('connectby_tree', 'keyid', 'parent_keyid', '11', 0, '-') AS t(keyid int, parent_keyid int, level int, branch text) ERROR: infinite recursion detected Regards, Masaru Sugawara ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
