Обсуждение: pg_proc.prosrc -> can I see the function's source?

Hi all,

When I look at the entry of a pg_prc_row, I get the prosrc column. Does
that represent the id of the source of this function? Can I retrieve it
somewhere and take a look at it without pgdump -s (didn't try it yet,
but read in the archives that this would be a solution)?

Example:

select proname,prosrc  from pg_proc where proname='RI_FKey_noaction_del';
       proname        |        prosrc
----------------------+----------------------
 RI_FKey_noaction_del | RI_FKey_noaction_del
(1 row)


Thanks for your help!

Raph

The below is a function in C, so you won't get it even with a pgdump -s
(it's one of the foreign key triggers defined in
src/backend/utils/adt/ri_triggers.c if I remember location correctly)
