This is exactly why we need a new language. All the clumsy stuff we cannot fix in plpgsql, can easily be fixed in plpgsql2, with the most beautiful syntax we can come up with. I guess it's a question if we want to support things like this. If we want to, then we also want a new language. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list ([email protected]) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
