Thanks! Thomas
Actually I am going to use many functions for different counts and a
wrapper function to return all count in one shot. My function1 is going
to be a part of all count functions. If I use it as sub query in all the
functions, performance degrades drastically, as my query of finction1 is
also heavy.
My wrapper function is going to look like:
Get_all_counts()
Select count1(result_set_of_finction1, int,
int), count2(result_set_of_finction1, int, int),
count3(result_set_of_finction1, int, int)...

Is there a reason not to build it in as a sub-query?
E.g., if you have a function get_count( int ):
SELECT count(b_column)
FROM some_table
WHERE some_field_1 in (
SELECT a_column
FROM a_table
WHERE some_condition
)
AND some_field_2 = $2;

Hi,
I have a function that returns a set.
Looks like:
Select a_column from a_table where some_condition;
I want to use output of this function as an argument of another function
Second looks like:
Get_count(result_set_of_function_1, int)
Select count(b_column) from
some_table where some_field_1 in ($1) and some_field_2 = $2;
Please suggest how can I do that?

akshay
