I'm writing a stored procedure that will execute as a trigger.
Arguments being passed to the procedure are field names.
My goal is to convert those field names into the field values. However,
I've not been successful. I thought that the following should have worked.
EXECUTE ''field_val := NEW.''||tg_argv[1]||'';'';
Nor does
EXECUTE ''SELECT INTO field_val NEW.''||tg_argv[1]||'';'';
I've tried using open for execute too... No luck.
Is this possible in pure SQL?
