Thank you for your responses, Pavel, and for your excellent blog pages.
Sorry, I am struggling with this a bit:
Currently, I am producing the whereclause on a subset of columns:
SELECT array_to_string (array(
SELECT newrecord.key || ' = ' || quote_literal(newrecord.value)
FROM (SELECT (each(hstore(NEW))).*) AS newrecord
WHERE newrecord.key LIKE 'id%' ), ' AND ')
INTO whereclause;
That gives me, for example:
SELECT 1 FROM test WHERE id1 = '26' AND id2 = 'name2' FOR UPDATE;
In an attempt to use EXECUTE '...' USING, I tried to execute
SELECT 1 FROM test WHERE id1 = $1 AND id2 = $2 FOR UPDATE;
I produced an array of corresponding values:
SELECT array(
SELECT newrecord.value
FROM (SELECT (each(hstore(NEW))).*) AS newrecord
WHERE newrecord.key LIKE 'id%'
) INTO av; -- text array
EXECUTE '...' USING av
==> ERROR: operator does not exist: integer = text[]
