Hello,
I have a table "refers_to"
individual_id int4
book_id int4
and another "individual"
individual_id int4 nextval('individual_serial')
name varchar
forename varchar
If the individual exists then get his id. If he doesn't allready exist
write his names to the table and get the newly created individual_id.
Then I though of using a function to write the book_id and the
individual_id to refers_to.
QUESTIONS
I am using JSP so the ideal seems to be stored functions in pl/pgsql?
What is the best order to do this in order to prevent a performance hit?
TIA
Tony Grant
