Alarm function in PL/pgSQL

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

Is it possible to set an alarm within a PL/pgSQL function?  By "alarm"
I mean a function which is invoked some defined time in the future,
even after the original function has terminated and returned a value
to the client.

I want an invocation of function FOO to set a "state" column of a given
table row to "temporary".  After a predefined period (say, one hour),
function BAR should then automatically be invoked; this latter function
would among other things change the "state" column to "permanent".

Thanks in advance!
Jon
