insert select fails inside of function

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

 



Hi All,

I am scratching my head over this one. I have a basic function which populates a table inside of it (declared outside of the function but that shouldn't matter)  and it requires something like

insert into table1 (col1, ...)
select * from foo

and I get the error "query has no destination for result data". This is surely not the case as it's going directly into the insert statement which doesn't have output. Any idea how to get around this particularly annoying problem? I have to say, making the switch from t-sql to postgresql has been fairly easy except for function debugging. The inability to return a select statement from a function and have it display has caused hours of wasted time and debugging headaches. Is this going to change any time soon?

Thanks,
~Ben
