Subject: using copy from in function
Message-ID:
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
I'm trying to automate import data using CORY FROM. For this purpose I
wrote plpgsql function. As my postgres works on windows vista I need
to use E'' syntax for path-to-file. This syntax works fine in SQL
queries like:
COPY table FROM E'path_to_file_with_double_backslashes';
[snip]
_file := $$c:\folder1\folder2\$$ || _chrom || '.txt';
Hi,
I'm not sure if this is related, but I have had terrible trouble using
"\" marks for paths in WinXP.. I have found surprisingly that "/" work
and don't cause any parsing problems. Also, I believe that if you use
syntax like:
'/folder1/folder2/' || _chrom || '.txt'
(i.e. leaving off the "c:" part too), you may find that everything just
works a little cleaner / fewer unexpected surprises.
Like I said, I don't know if this is your issue (and Vista), but it's
been my experience with WinXP and file paths in Postgresql.
Best,
Steve
