Well, that's not my question. I have a plpgsql function like that:
CREATE FUNCTION object_new(class TEXT, properties TEXT[])
which I call like
object_new('Car', ARRAY['color', 'red', 'new', 'true'])
That means set color to red and new to true. In the function I need to
call
object_set_boolean_property(object_id INT, property_name TEXT,
property_value BOOLEAN)
And I can't call it with a TEXT variable, because casting from TEXT to
BOOLEAN isn't possible.
