Hi Folks,
Is there a way to pass in an xml string into a stored proc and thenplace this into a temp table?
I use to be able to do this in sql server, it was quite handy as I could call one stored proc to update multiple records, here is a sample in sql server:
select CoverTypeID, ItemSQ, SituationID, ItemDescription, CoverAmount
From OpenXML ( @XmlHandle, '/cover/covertype/item',1 )
With ( CoverTypeID int '../@id',
ItemSQ int '@id',
SituationID int '@situationID',
ItemDescription varchar(100) '@description',
CoverAmount money '@amount' )
I have managed to get get pgxml_xpath working, however Im not sure how to access specific rows in an xml document. E.g below there are two records, how do I access the second record, the following returns both ,'//query/row/cola values being (284122,525887):
select
pgxml_xpath(
'<query columns="4" rows="100"><row><cola>284122</cola><colb>789648</colb><colc>{ts ''2005-02-14 16:13:18''}</colc><cold>unbnda8m5946z55sgi1xco34h1q9tLonoys3nyk1d5tgtLaw8h5wya0zdv7vigeiuk9xqLuacdy0dsisopb8g1o4o76090otmq65</cold></row<row><cola>525887</cola><colb>493253</colb><colc>{ts ''2005-02-14 16:13:18''}</colc><cold>6uydk442uz247ga45kpys7htkxznkn8La31qhn942wu2cu2pdr25mv2nup2zh3vcbh3c4vdauak3p3w093cvtkeyga692b455cr3</cold></row></query>'
,'//query/row/cola/text()','','')
