I'm trying to permit users access to their own records in a database.
A sample would be:
create table logins
(
login char(8),
name char(32),
primary key (login)
);
When a login is added an SQL user is created simultaneously. Now I
want the user to be able to view her own data:
create function userid() returns text as 'select current_user::text;'
language sql;
create view loginview as select * from logins where logins.login=userid();
grant select on loginview to public;
[OR grant select on loginview to <userid>...]
However, a select * from loginview; doesn't return any rows. Is what
I'm trying not possible at all, or am I just trying to implement it
wrong?
Regards,
