Hi im using the function below to insert data into my db; im using
now() to get the timestamptz, however when inserted in the db the format
seems to vary, the majority of the time its in the required European
style but does spontaniously change to various other type can anyone
throw any light on this problem.
Further info:
DATESTYLE is currently set to European.
db table type is 'timestamptz'
#######################################################################################
CREATE FUNCTION newmess(int4, text, varchar) RETURNS varchar AS '
DECLARE
userid ALIAS for $1;
message ALIAS for $2;
touser ALIAS for $3;
enttime DATETIME;
touserid INTEGER;
rdset BIT;
from VARCHAR;
BEGIN
rdset = 0;
touserid=(select id from users where lastname=touser);
enttime=(select now());
from=(select lastname from users where id = userid);
INSERT INTO CallLog.message(message, fromuser, touser, txtime, rd,
fromusern) values(message. userid, touserid, enttime, rdset, from);
END;
' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
