creating index's on functions.

Hi,

I have a table, where one of the columns "extradata" is a gob of XML.
I'd like to be able to create an index on this function.. so i tried
this
CREATE INDEX actitemsXML_idx ON act_items
(pgxml_xpath(ex tradata,'//RequestInfo/refund_id/text()','','')) ;

And i got this nice little error

ERROR: parser: parse error at or near
"'//RequestInfo/refund_id/text()'" at character 66

I tried escaping the single quotes.. that basically leaves me at a psql
prompt with a ', meaning i need to close my quote, but they're all
escaped.

If anyone has any input for adding index's on functions that have single
quotes in them, that would be great.

Thanks.

Jeff.

I want to create a function and can only get half way to my goal. dim sStr as string sStr = Entry(2,"a,b,c,d") ' Sets sStr = "b" Entry(2,sStr) = "B" ' Sets sStr = "a,B,c,d" I tried create a public property. However, the Set does not allow ByRef. How do I work around this?

So, I have a class that has to retrieve some data from either xml or an sql database. This isn't a problem, but I was thinking "hey, it would be cool if I could just not define the functions for say xml if I'm using sql", so I did some fiddling around with the interpreter. First, I try conditionally creating a function, period: a = 'a'

Hi all, I need to create one or two indexes on date columns to support MAX and MIN aggregate functions on a very large table and to make the SQL perform/run faster. I remember a group discussion sometime ago that creating an index on the date column ASCENDING or DESCENDING will be the thing to do. Is that still true? Does anyone have or know of a good discussion of the pros and cons of doing what I am trying to accomplish? Any...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
