CP - You're missing a line in the middle; one which will extract specific content(s) from $results.
Because, yes, without such a line, python will only return the object reference.

One is plsql function which returns text. Second function is plpythonu and contains one statement which outputs notice e.g. results = plpy.execute("select * from software.func1();") plpy.notice("%s" % col for col in results[0]) The same result is returned as a final return as notice. But it does not outputs the correct result which is returned from func1 (text in this case). Rather it outputs notice as NOTICE: <generator object <genexpr> at 0xb578cb6c> It doesn't prints the correct notice even by using plpy.notice("%s" %results) What can be the problem here? Thanks for help. C P Kulkarni
