Record

Record Variables

Perform the following operations to create a record variable:

Define a record type and use this type to declare a variable.

Syntax

For the syntax of the record type, see Figure 1.

Figure 1 Syntax of the record type

The above syntax diagram is explained as follows:

  • record_type: record name
  • field: record columns
  • datatype: record data type
  • expression: expression for setting a default value

NOTE: In openGauss:

  • When assigning values to record variables, you can:
  • Declare a record type and define member variables of this type when you declare a function or stored procedure.
  • Assign the value of a record variable to another record variable.
  • Use SELECT INTO or FETCH to assign values to a record type.
  • Assign the NULL value to a record variable.
  • The INSERT and UPDATE statements cannot use a record variable to insert or update data.
  • Just like a variable, a record column of the compound type does not have a default value in the declaration.
  • The data type can be the record type, array type, or set type defined in a stored procedure (anonymous blocks are not supported).

Examples

The table definition used in the following is defined as follows:
openGauss=# \d emp_rec
                Table "public.emp_rec"
  Column  |              Type              | Modifiers 
----------+--------------------------------+-----------
 empno    | numeric(4,0)                   | not null
 ename    | character varying(10)          | 
 job      | character varying(9)           | 
 mgr      | numeric(4,0)                   | 
 hiredate | timestamp(0) without time zone | 
 sal      | numeric(7,2)                   | 
 comm     | numeric(7,2)                   | 
 deptno   | numeric(2,0)                   |
