  2. returns setof tbl_one as 
  3. '
  4. declare 
  5. r tbl_one%rowtype;
  6. a alias for $1;
  7. b alias for $2;
  8. begin
  9.  for r in select tran_event_cd, event_cd,party_cd
  10.  from tran_event where $1=$2
  11. loop
  12. return next r;
  13. end loop;
  14. return ''a'';
  15. end'
  16. language 'plpgsql' volatile;
  17.

I don't think you can pass column name to the function.

As a side note if you were to pass the column name the first argument in the function would've been declared as type name, or varchar, not the integer.

Another problem there is on line 14: return ''a'';
You cannot return anything when function returns a rowset - this line should be just return;

The following simple example code illustrates the problem and the work around I've come up with; However, I'd like, very much, to get rid of the kludgy work around....

I have a virtual function in a base class, which is then overwritten by a function of the same name in a publically derived class. When I call the function using a pointer to the derived class (ClassB* b; b->func(); ) the base-class function is called instead of the new function in the derived class. All other similar functions (virtual in the base class and overwritten in the the derived class) work fine, it's just this one function. ...

If I have a class with a virtual method, and a child class that overrides the virtual method, and then I create an instance of the child class AS A base class...

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,...
