For DB upgrade (from 1.5 to 3.0) I need to define custom internal function like this:
create or alter function F_ABS ( VAR_1 double precision) returns integer AS declare variable result double precision; begin result = abs(var_1); return result; end But I am confused. My experiments assert that ASB internal function is polymorphic - it returns BIGINT for BIGINT argument and DOUBLE PRECISION for DOUBLE PRECISION arguments, it can be tricky to determine the return type if string arguments is given (and implicit conversion occurs). I would like that F_ABS has this polymorphic nature of ABS. How should I declare F_ABS to have this polymorphic nature?
