Re: [JDBC] [HACKERS] Where are we on stored procedures?
Hi, Tom, Tom Lane schrieb: Yeah, but only because you have to do it explicitly. I was wondering whether we couldn't bury that mechanism under the hood. (In particular, given the improved support in 8.0 for anonymous record types, we could in theory have the backend invent a record type on-the-fly to match whatever list of OUT parameters a particular function has.) It would not be necessarily on the fly, at least in the first step we possibly get away with declaraing the returned tuples at creation time and implicitly creating those tuple types. The declaration could be like returns (touchedrows int, somethingelse datetime), setof (article int, description text) for a function/method that has two resultsets, one of those with always one row. markus -- markus schaber | dipl. informatiker logi-track ag | rennweg 14-16 | ch 8001 zürich phone +41-43-888 62 52 | fax +41-43-888 62 53 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | www.logi-track.com signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

The advantage of not explicitly creating the rowtypes is that we don't need to worry about choosing nonconflicting names for them. So I think I'd go down the anonymous-rowtype path even in the first cut. regards, tom lane ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send unregister YourEmailAddressHere to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
