Through preliminary examination, it appears stored procedures using pl/pgsql in PostgreSQL 7.3 are interpreted, rather than compiled?
When we insert a stored function into PostgreSQL, the syntax check is not done until execution, and only on the branch/path of execution, not on the entire function. Is there any way to precompile the pl/pgsql functions so that we know if there's a missing object dependency upon function creation, rather than at runtime? Thanks in advance. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
