Subject: using string functions on plpgsql
Date: Wed, 16 Apr 2008 14:50:09 -0700
Message-ID: <2ba670e30804161450q68312d25l3e36a98034badbe9@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I'm starting to create my firsts plpgsql functions, and I was
wondering how to use the string function 'length' in the code of the
fuction. I have tried so far and I get an error. I'm trying this:

declare
    i integer;
begin
 ...

   i =  length(texto)

...

where texto is a varchar(200) I pass as a parameter to the function calling.

Any help will help.

Thanks!!!
