Help needed with XMLTABLE

[Dilip Kumar <dilipbalaut@xxxxxxxxx>]

One of our customers tried to use XMLTABLE syntax without
row_expression, which works fine with ORACLE but doesn't work with
PostgreSQL.  So can anyone suggest what alternative we can use?

CREATE TABLE user_pool_clean (
    fk_user_pool_pk bytea NOT NULL,
    user_id character varying(255) NOT NULL,
    email_address character varying(250),
    is_mil numeric,
    is_civ numeric,
    is_ctr numeric,
    is_gov numeric,
    is_edu numeric,
    role_id character varying(50),
    user_profile_id character varying(50),
    service_branch_id character varying(50),
    mil_pay_grade_id character varying(50),
    my_auds character varying(4000),
    my_orgs character varying(4000),
    processed character(1) DEFAULT 'N'::bpchar NOT NULL
);

insert into user_pool_clean
values('995CECDC1881375DE05312A270C7CF56','10015706','noemail@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',0,0,0,0,0,'1','4','700006','3','1706882','1707720','Y');

insert into user_pool_clean
values('995CECDC1905375DE05312A270C7CF56','10015848','noemail@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',0,0,0,0,0,'1','3','700015','11','
1705562,1708486','1710621','Y');


SQL> SELECT upc.is_mil,TRIM(column_value) src
         FROM   user_pool_clean upc
               ,xmltable(('"'|| REPLACE( upc.my_auds, ',', '","')|| '"'));
