As Christopher already pointed out, it depends on what you want to do. If you're doing some complex string processing, it will be easier (and in some cases) faster to do in plperl, if you're mainly dealing with sets, plpgsql will be better suited. > which of the PL is most widely used. plpgsql. > One problem i have with the plpgsql > is that the quoting is really a pain. In current versions of PostgreSQL you can use $$ quoting, which should make your life easier: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/static/plpgsql-structure.html http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/static/plperl.html HTH, stefan ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
