Message-ID: <ED4E30DD9C43D5118DFB00508BBBA76EB16622@neptun.sonorys.at> (raw)
Coming from functional programming, I often wish to write something like
that:
(LAMDA "expesiveFcn"(x y z) as exfcn
update "Tbl5" SET "Column" = exfcn
)
In this case "expensiveFcn" is VOLATILE...
Is there a way?
At least: substituting the lambda by a select doesn't work with update as
subquery
