Hi,
I'm working on a row level plpgsql trigger running after delete,
using a 8.0.3 server. It gets a parameter which is a field name of
the OLD record. How can that field be accessed?
I'd like to do something like:
for recvar in 'select OLD.'||quote_ident(TG_ARGV[0])...
I THINK you are out of luck here. I hear it's possible to do but in
one of the other PL languages say pl/tcl, though I can't seem to find
an example....
Right, "dynamic variables" aren't available in plpgsql. Check out
any of the other pl languages available if you can.
