Forum OpenACS Development: PL/SQL-to-PL/PgSQL-HOWTO beta

Collapse
Posted by Roberto Mello on
I've made the beta version of my PL/SQL-to-PL/PgSQL-HOWTO available for public scrutiny, comments, suggestions, etc, etc...

Take a peek at http://www.brasileiro.net/roberto/howto/index.html and let me know what you think. I haven't had time to come up with a good example on how to port packages, so if you have one, please send it to me and I'll include it.

The HOWTO includes three instr functions that mimick Oracle's counterpart (they can be handy). Two of them are in PL/PgSQL and one of them in PL/Tcl, which I intend to port to PL/PgSQL sometime (though that'll be nasty).

You are welcome. Comments, suggestions and criticisms to the docs are appreciated.

It's worth to note that all those docs have been merged into the PostgreSQL official documentation (for 7.1).
