Thank you.
another workaround is to wrap the pl/pgsql function in sql function.
it's not always easy to re-work the function all into a 'from'
expression.
I tried code below in 8.3 but got error
ERROR: syntax error at or near "select"
LINE 30: select * from wordwrap(line,linelen);
Andrus.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION wordwrap(line text, linelen integer)
RETURNS SETOF text as $$
DECLARE
words text[] := string_to_array(line,' ');
i integer;
res text:='';
BEGIN
if trim(line)='' then
return next '';
return;
end if;
for i IN 1 .. array_upper(words,1) LOOP
if length(res)+length(words[i]) > linelen THEN
return next res;
res := '';
END IF ;
if res<>'' then
res := res || ' ';
end if;
res := res || words[i];
end loop;
return next res;
END
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION wordwrap83(line text, linelen integer)
RETURNS SETOF text as $$
BEGIN
select * from wordwrap(line,linelen);
END
$$ LANGUAGE sql;
select wordwrap83('fdgdf',10)
