Hello list,
We intend to implement $subject, so instead of
mycursor CURSOR (myparm text) IS SELECT myparm;
OPEN mycursor('A');
it would be possible to do
OPEN mycursor(myparm := 'A');
The idea is to
* in pl_exec.exec_stmt_forc, detect if a positional parameter or named
parameter is used.
* if named, use plpgsql_ns_lookup to find the cursur arguments position
in the plpgsql name space.
* normal processing for the found position from here.
Mixing named and positional could probably be made to work as well.
Does this approach sound reasonable?
regards,
Yeb Havinga & Willem Dijkstra
