Hi All,
I wish to return an array of values.
Assume, I have a table called contacts. I want to display all
the names available from a column in the UI. Hence I need to
return that column as an array of values. Please correct me if
there is any other solution exist.
Here is the code, I’m trying to execute:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION get_all_names()
RETURNS TEXT[] AS '
DECLARE
group_data TEXT[];
BEGIN
Try
<blockquote

type="cite">
--SELECT display_name INTO group_data FROM
contacts;
select array(select display_name from contacts) into group_data;
<blockquote
cite="mid:90F0F47595235141A4380FCF01B0185B224141CCB4@CHN-HCLT-EVS07.HCLT.CORP.HCL.IN"
type="cite">
RETURN group_data;
END;
'LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
During compilation, I got the below error:
ERROR: array value must start with "{" or
dimension information
CONTEXT: PL/pgSQL function "get_all_ names
" line 4 at SQL statement
Regards,
Siva.
