update several columns from function returning several values

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

 



Hey,
a trivial question I guess,
can't make it work.

IF I define a function returning several values , I can't use it to update mutliple columns of a table at once.
i __don't__ want to use CTE or subquerry,
and of course I don't wan tto compute the function several time.

CREATE TABLE test_update_m_values (
gid int,
gid_plus_1 int,
gid_minus_1 int
);
 
INSERT INTO test_update_m_values VALUES (1,0,0) ;

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION rc_test_update_m_values( gid int,OUT gid_plus_1 int, OUT gid_minus_1 int)
AS $$  -- @brief : test function, can be deleted
BEGIN
    SELECT gid+1,gid-1 INTO gid_plus_1, gid_minus_1; 
RETURN ;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE 'plpgsql' IMMUTABLE STRICT   ;


UPDATE test_update_m_values SET (gid_plus_1,gid_minus_1) = (rc_test_update_m_values(gid)); --doesn't work

Somebody now if this is possible?

CHeers,
Rémi-C
