Aother head banger for me.
Below is a complete example of the code
Using Postgres 7.4,
the function "test" gets this: psql:temp3.sql:10: ERROR: syntax error
at or near "%" at character 135
the function "test2" gets this: psql:temp3.sql:10: ERROR: syntax error
at or near "ROWTYPE" at character 141
Very odd. The first doesn't even like the '%' character -- perhaps because
doof is a table type rather than a column (domain) type???
And when we schema qualify the name of the table then the % is ok, but
ROWTYPE is not.
Is this a well-known limitation or a new (7.4) bug? I tried combing the
docs to no avail.
Thanks,

TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Try replacing the rowtype with SETOF doof:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION test(INTEGER)
RETURNS SETOF doof AS '
SELECT * FROM doof WHERE pk_id=$1;
' LANGUAGE SQL STABLE RETURNS NULL ON NULL INPUT;
Hope that helps.
