I have noticed this as well, if I declare OUT params I can modify them to my hearts content before they go out, however if you declare it as a INOUT you can't modify it because it is declared as a constant.

Uh, I don't think so.

                   /* input argument vars are forced to be CONSTANT */
                   if (argmode == PROARGMODE_IN)
                       ((PLpgSQL_var *) argvariable)->isconst = true;

Can you provide a test case that misbehaves that way?

                        regards, tom lane

Tom,
Maybe we are mis-communicating here.
So what you are saying is INOUT params are NOT constants and you can modify them in the function body? I could have sworn that did not work for me in beta1, I will try it again in beta 4 and see if things have changed.

Thanks,

Tony Caduto
