Is there any way to handle failed queries in PL/pgSQL?
<< I am aware that the example can be re-worded in a single query; This
is a question more on how to do the 'procedural' part >>
Example:
1st query
if OK, return result
2ne query
if OK, return result
return error message
Is it correct, that if a function fails, it returns null ??
-- Function: message_get(varchar)
CREATE FUNCTION message_get(varchar) RETURNS varchar AS '
DECLARE
p_key ALIAS FOR $1;
v_RetValue Message.MsgText%TYPE;
BEGIN
SELECT MsgText INTO v_RetValue
FROM User_Message
WHERE Value = p_Value;
-- if ok ??
RETURN v_RetValue;
SELECT Text INTO v_RetValue
FROM Sys_Message
WHERE Value = p_Value;
-- if ok ??
RETURN v_RetValue;
RETURN 'nothing found';
END;
' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
