the drop function works when running from a pgAdmin III Sql window

but when I try to do from the command line and script it:
psql -h $PGHOST -p $PGPORT -d $PGDATABASE -U $PGUSER -c "*drop function ....*"

the above fails.

It does however work with functions with no params or a single param. It seems to get hung up on the comma and the extra set of parenthesis

How do I drop a function that was created like so:

create or replace function process_table (action TEXT,
v_table_name varchar(100)) RETURNS BOOLEAN
AS $$
DECLARE
....
BEGIN
    ...
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

I have tried various ways, but it always fails.


J.V.

test=# begin;
create or replace function process_table (
         action TEXT, v_table_name varchar(100)
) RETURNS BOOLEAN
AS $$
DECLARE

BEGIN
         return true;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

*drop function process_table (
         action TEXT, v_table_name varchar(100)
);*
commit;
BEGIN
CREATE FUNCTION
DROP FUNCTION
COMMIT
test=#

Repeat just the input parameters.
