Hello
you can't to use parameters inside literal. There hasn't any sense (to
8.3, 8.4 will support USING).
you have to use serialisation to string and quoting.
some like
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION foo(int[])
RETURNS SETOF int AS $$
DECLARE r record;
BEGIN FOR r IN EXECUTE 'SELECT (' || quote_literal($1::text) ||
'::int[])[i] AS x FROM generate_series(1, array_upper(' ||
quote_literal($1::text) || '::int[],1)) g(i)' LOOP RETURN NEXT r.x; END LOOP; RETURN;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
SELECT * FROM foo(ARRAY[1,2,3]);
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION foo84(int[])
RETURNS SETOF int AS $$
DECLARE r record;
BEGIN FOR r IN EXECUTE 'SELECT $1[i] AS x FROM generate_series(1,
array_upper($1,1)) g(i)' USING $1 LOOP RETURN NEXT r.x; END LOOP; RETURN;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
SELECT * FROM foo84(ARRAY[1,2,3]);
