Default Re: What's the equivalent in PL/pgSQL

See this section of the manual:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/i...pgsql-control-
structures.html

In particular, look at 35.7.1.2 and 35.7.4. I think you need to loop
through the results of the query in order to return them. If you just
want to return the result set as a whole to another function that needs
to work with the data, you can use a cursor.

TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your
joining column's datatypes do not match
