Subject: Compiling pl/pgsql functions?
Date: Fri, 3 Jan 2003 09:27:28 -0800
Message-ID: <200301030927.28989.dlynes@shaw.ca> (raw)

Through preliminary examination, it appears stored procedures using pl/pgsql 
in PostgreSQL 7.3 are interpreted, rather than compiled?

When we insert a stored function into PostgreSQL, the syntax check is not done 
until execution, and only on the branch/path of execution, not on the entire 
function.

Is there any way to precompile the pl/pgsql functions so that we know if 
there's a missing object dependency upon function creation, rather than at 
runtime?

Thanks in advance.
