Hello,
I'm having trouble getting functions with SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION ... to parse.
This is the error I'm getting (example function below the error):
=> select simple_fun();
NOTICE: plpgsql: ERROR during compile of simple_fun near line 3
ERROR:parse error at or near ";"
This is the simple_fun function that is causing the above error:
CREATE FUNCTION simple_fun() RETURNS INTEGER AS '
BEGIN
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE;
BEGIN;
SELECT 1;
END;
RETURN 1;
END;
' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
This is as simple as it gets.
I think my syntax is correct (I checked Practical PostgreSQL
book as well as a number of 7.2 PDF documents, etc.).
Am I missing a secret ingredient here?
Thank you,
Otis
