Hi all.
This is my case:
-- begin snippet --
reset search_path;
drop table if exists session cascade;
create table session ( name text primary key, valu text not null );
create or replace function session_init()
returns void
language plpgsql
as $body$
declare
t text;
begin
select valu into t from session where name='SESSION_ID';
if not found then
create temporary table session ( like public.session including all );
insert into session values ( 'SESSION_ID',current_user );
end if;
end;
$body$;
SELECT * from session;
SELECT * from session_init();
SELECT * from session;
SELECT * from session_init();
-- end snippet --
The output from the last four queries is:
--
tmp2=# SELECT * from session;
name | valu
------+------
(0 rows)
tmp2=# SELECT * from session_init();
NOTICE: CREATE TABLE / PRIMARY KEY will create implicit index
"session_pkey" for table "session"
CONTEXT: SQL statement "create temporary table session ( like
public.session including all )"
PL/pgSQL function "session_init" line 6 at istruzione SQL
session_init
--------------

tmp2=# SELECT * from session;
name | valu
------------+------
SESSION_ID | enzo
(1 row)
tmp2=# SELECT * from session_init();
ERROR: relation "session" already exists
CONTEXT: SQL statement "create temporary table session ( like
public.session including all )"
PL/pgSQL function "session_init" line 6 at istruzione SQL

This means that the "if not found then" in the function body didn't work well.
The idea is to create a temporary table to store session variables
only of there's no temporary table with that name.
Any hint on this?
