concatenating setof functions

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I suspect I am missing a much cleaner way of doing this, but say I
have a function which returns a setof integer, i.e.,

create or replace function testfunc (integer) returns setof integer as $$
declare
    i alias for $1;
begin
    return next i;
    return next i+100;
    return;
end
$$ language plpgsql;

I know I can call this as: select * from twohundreds(3);

But say I have a table with an integer column.  If I had a pure SQL
function, I could call

select twohundreds(i) from table;

and get a properly concatenated list of the rows resulting from
applying twohundreds to each row of table.  This is deprecated
according to the documentation, and it doesn't work at all with
PLPGSQL, so how should I go about doing it?
