Hi, I really don't understand following PostgreSQL 7.2.3 behaviour:
$ psql mydb mydb=> CREATE FUNCTION MONDAY(timestamp) RETURNS DATE AS ' DECLARE var1 date; BEGIN select into var1 to_date($1::date-(case when extract(DOW from timestamp $1) = 0 then 6 else (extract(DOW from timestamp $1)-1) end)); RETURN var1; END' language 'plpgsql'; CREATE mydb=> select MONDAY('now'::timestamp); NOTICE: Error occurred while executing PL/pgSQL function MONDAY NOTICE: line 4 at select into variables ERROR: parser: parse error at or near "$2" mydb=> \q But I've not inserted any $2 there. I've rewritten the same function in other ways but I've got the same error. I thank you in advance for any hints.
