I tried the following function: - ----------------------------------------------------------------- create function drus (timestamp) returns varchar AS' DECLARE str_created VARCHAR; created ALIAS FOR $1; BEGIN str_created:= to_char(created, ''YYYY''); RETURN str_created; END; ' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql'; create index session_u_idx on session (drus(created)); - ----------------------------------------------------------------- But it failes with: ERROR: DefineIndex: index function must be marked isImmutable Now the question is how do I mark an index function isImmutable? - -- Andreas Joseph Krogh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> There will always be someone who agrees with you but is, inexplicably, a moron. gpg public_key: http://dev.officenet.no/~andreak/public_key.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+JUtlUopImDh2gfQRAl1XAKCkEDKxRDys/Di1gLLRDx6h0TGiPwCeI4FN DNdajyaQTd27f8MeaWZ+xUE= =T3we -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
