I've tested this patch out and can confirm mixed notation produces an error:
psql:plsqltest.sql:27: ERROR: mixing positional and named parameter assignment not allowed in cursor "cur1"
LINE 10: open cur1( param2 := 4, 2, 5);
Just one small thing: it'd be nice to have an example for cursor declaration with named parameters. Your patch adds
onefor opening a cursor, but not for declaring one.
Other than that, I think the patch is good. Everything works as advertised =)
