Yes, I read the doc...
And I have now created this function, which seems to be ok but when I try to select
from it, I get an error telling me that "subquery must return only one column". But
my subquery does return only one column...?
My function looks like this?
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION trykkStatus (pressID INTEGER)
RETURNS SetOf trykkstatus_type AS '
DECLARE
orderID ordrenew.id%TYPE;
tmprec trykkstatus_type%ROWTYPE;
BEGIN
select id into orderID from ordrenew where now() between trykkstart and produsert and
presseid = pressID limit 1;
if not found then
return;
end if;
select into tmprec (select 1 as colid, ordrenew.id, trykkstart, produsert,
presseid,product.name from ordrenew left outer join product on ordrenew.productid =
product.id where produsert < (select trykkstart from ordrenew where id=orderID) and
presseid = pressID order by produsert desc limit 1);
return next tmprec;
select into tmprec (select 2 as colid, ordrenew.id, trykkstart, produsert,
presseid,product.name from
ordrenew left outer join product on ordrenew.productid = product.id where ordrenew.id
= orderID);
return next tmprec;
select into tmprec (select 3 as colid, ordrenew.id, trykkstart, produsert,
presseid,product.name from
ordrenew left outer join product on ordrenew.productid = product.id where trykkstart >
(select produsert from ordrenew where id=orderID) and presseid = pressID order by
trykkstart limit 1) order by colid);
return next tmprec;
END;
' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
What am I missing?
