Hi,
Yes, I misspelled in the mail, I don't any way to copy it from the console,
so I rewrote it here.
I will post if I can reproduce it again. I hope that I have missed
something.
Best Regards,
Otto

I suspect this isn't exactly the code you're running, because creating
this function fails with the following error:
ERROR: language "plpgslq" does not exist
If I correct the spelling to "plpgsql" then I get the following results:
SELECT * FROM pidtest;
pid | szoveg
-----+--------
3 | three
4 | four
5 | five
6 | six
7 | seven
(5 rows)
SELECT pidtest_del(5);
pidtest_del
-------------
(1 row)
SELECT * FROM pidtest;
pid | szoveg
-----+--------
3 | three
4 | four
5 | six
6 | seven
(4 rows)
Sorry, now I cannot reproduce it, but yesterday I was suprised that the
szoveg field's contents in the locked records went away.
What you describe isn't supposed to happen, but we can't do much
to investigate the problem unless we can see how to reproduce it.
