I've send the comment below to the documentation page about CREATE
FUNCTION, but it got (rightfully) rejected, since it doesn't really
add up to the discussion and is more of a request about syntax. So,
here it goes:
Sorry, but "datetime" vs "timestamp with time zone"?!
Where is the mention of either of these on the CREATE FUNCTION page? And
anyway, what is your actual complaint? You complain about something but
you expect us to divine what your actual beef is.
And what about
the whole function text between $$'s? Yes, better than the '' of some
time ago, since we don't have to put string literals in the function
text between '''''s! still...
still what? Same deal. You expect us to read your brainwaves to discover
what is bugging you.
Why are open-source developers so masochist? I want to use
PostgreSQL, Linux, Python and others in the firm I work at, but I this
way I can't really sell them the idea of moving on to something which
is harder, clunkier and less supported than Oracle or M$SQL...
Right now we're moving from M$SQL to Oracle and this is why I came
here, to see how things are going. Well, i guess i'll try again in
five years or so.
Please, take this as constructive criticism, since i'm a proud
open-source supporter... i would gladly use PostgreSQL at work,
clunkier syntax or not, but it's otherwise difficult to sell it to my
Windows-minded coworkers...
If you're a proud open source supporter, then contribute. Whining about
things you don't like is not the same as support.
Talk is cheap.
