Sure, here's a working example from a running application: CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION assign_detail_device_type_seq() RETURNS trigger AS $$ BEGIN IF NEW.det_device_type_id is NULL THEN NEW.det_device_type_id := (SELECT NEXTVAL('rumba.det_device_type_seq')); END IF; RETURN NEW; END; $$ LANGUAGE plpgsql; CREATE TRIGGER tDetDevType BEFORE INSERT ON rumba.DETAIL_DEVICE_TYPE FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE assign_detail_device_type_seq(); > > > On 8/16/06, Harpreet Dhaliwal <harpreet.dhaliwal01@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Its actually something like the trigger should start a C function > after insert and the C function has the ECPG code for some more > inserts. > Its similar to the way we dynamically load a shared library while > executing a stored procedure, as in , executing a fucntion in C file > using stored procedure/ function. > > Harpreet > > > On 8/16/06, Michael Fuhr <mike@xxxxxxxx > wrote: > On Wed, Aug 16, 2006 at 01:46:30AM -0400, Jasbinder Bali wrote: >> I changed the datatype from varchar[] to varchar >> ECPGdebug(1,stderr) says >> [2998]: ECPGexecute line 97 Ok: INSERT 0 1 >> >> Its not inserting any record even though sqlcode is 0. > > Are you committing the transaction?
