Re: LAST_DAY Function in Postgres

Hi,

if didn't find this function on
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/interactive/functions-datetime.html,
You have to write own function

testdb=> create or replace function last_day(date) returns date as 'select
cast(date_trunc(''month'', $1) + ''1 month''::interval as date) - 1'
language sql;
CREATE FUNCTION
testdb=> select last_day(current_date);
  last_day
