i have 2 functions, naming a and b, both outputing a resultset(cursor) and a integer. a calls b a: CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION "public"."t_outer" (out o_rs "pg_catalog"."refcursor", out o_i integer) RETURNS record AS ... select t_inner(o_rs, o_i); ... b: CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION "public"."t_inner" (out o_rs "pg_catalog"."refcursor", out o_i integer) RETURNS record AS ... Compilation is ok, but when i call a, it says: ERROR: function b(refcursor, integer) does not exist No function matches the given name and argument types. You might need to add explicit type casts. So, my question is whether postgreSQL supporting this type of nesting? thanks. if this is an old question, please forgive me. regards -- Alferd. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
