You don't have to do it that way, by any means. max_calls is just a field you can use if you feel like it --- it's not going to be looked at by anything outside your SRF. If you don't want to determine the number of result rows at the start, just ignore max_calls, and use whatever method is convenient to decide that you're done returning rows. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
