I am puzzled. Can ayone explain why I get an error
from Postgres on this simple stored procedure?
The following is from the pgAdmin III History
window:
-- Executing query:
CREATE PROCEDURE addEntity ( fn IN VARCHAR, ln IN VARCHAR, ivar IN VARCHAR, hi IN VARCHAR, pw IN VARCHAR, ea IN VARCHAR, ad IN VARCHAR, c IN VARCHAR, p IN VARCHAR, co IN VARCHAR, pc IN VARCHAR ) AS DECLARE varID INTEGER BEGIN SELECT int varID uid from uids where email_address=ea; IF varID IS NOT NULL THEN INSERT INTO addy (uid,address,city,province,country,postal_code) VALUES (varID,ad,c,p,co,pc) ELSE INSERT INTO uids(family_name,first_name,initials,hid,pword,email_address) VALUES (ln,fn,ivar,hi,pw,ea) INSERT INTO addys(...) VALUES (currval('seq'),ad,c,p,co,pc) END IF; END LANGUAGE 'sql' VOLATILE; ERROR: syntax error at or near "PROCEDURE" at
character 8
Judging from the examples in the manual (around page 600),
my procedure ought to be fine, but clearly Postgres doesn't like it.
Thanks,
