Hi all, although this is not really SQL, but PL/pgSQL, I hope this is the right place to ask.
I have written a complex triggers. It works very well. Just now I have realized that I have used the = operater for variable assignments, instead of the := operater. To my suprise, there was no error or warning, and the store procedure works very well! e.g. NEW.someval = rec.someother; works as well as NEW.someval := rec.someother; Can you confirm that both are valid? Can someone explain this? And is it safe to use the former syntax?
