Well of course, if you're running it in a separate command. If you run the function twice from one query I'd expect both to return the same. Of course you can easily get the same XID back from multiple commands if you're in an explicit transaction. BTW, it would likely be useful to others if you posted your code for those functions somewhere. Just yesterday I was thinking of something where it would be handy to know what your current XID is. > so my question is - is there any way, to be able to tell "one query from > another"? > > i would like to write a plpgsql function that would be able to > differentiate somehow it's calls from one statement to another. I think you're going to have to give a more explicit example of what you're actually trying to do. > i'm not sure if my description is correct - if you dont understand > something, please let me know. Well, I'm not following, but it's early in the morning and I didn't sleep well, so... :) -- Decibel!, aka Jim Nasby decibel@xxxxxxxxxxx EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com 512.569.9461 (cell)
