Hello,
i am still at the same stage.... thanks to Oliver Elphick the plperl
module is working, as a stand alone per program the thing works (sole
difference, i use $toparse = shift; instead of the $toparse = $_[0];
in the sql-function....
here's the thing:
CREATE FUNCTION cleanFromSep(text,text) RETURNS int4
AS '
$toparse = $_[0];
$work = $_[0];
$format = $_[1];
print "first step $work\n";
$work =~s/\.//g;
print "second step $work\n";
$work =~s/\,//g;
print "final step $work\n";
$work *= 100
if($format =~/,\d{2}$/ && !($toparse=~/,\d{2}$/));
print "eventual mult step $work\n";
return $work;
' LANGUAGE 'plperl';
the perl script gives:
./test.pl 1.000.000 999.999.999,99
first step 1.000.000
second step 1000000
final step 1000000
eventual mult step 100000000
and the SQL function:
select cleanFromSep('1.000.000','999.999.999,99');
cleanfromsep
--------------
0
(1 row)
so what am i doing wrong? besides how can i output debug stuff from the
perl script? print manifestingly doesn't work...
