hi everyone
ok i ve tried to add my own procedural language using the call handler interface.
I am doining nothing in the handler function except
tyring to print a mess through errmsg function (plz correct me if i am wrong here, since i cant see
the message which i am printing)
Now my question is that how can i explicitly specify that i want my pl language to be used.
I think i have added my language successfully by
following the procedure mentioned in the
documentation.
So now how do i inform the database engine to use my language for a specific query
Is this part of an academic project or something? Frankly, it looks to me like you need to acquire a lot of basic knowledge about how postgresql works internally before you even start thinking about what you are trying to do.
Serverside PLs can only be used in user-defined functions, and the language used is specified in the function definition, as in
create function foo() returns text language mypl as $$ <code in mypl> $$;
cheers
