Re: About debugging trigger

In Postgresql it's

RAISE NOTICE 'Your Message Goes Here %', value_to
_replace%_must_be_text_or_varchar;

Please note, this is not a question for PgAdmin. It should go to
pgsql-general(at)postgresql(dot)org <mailto:pgsql-general(at)postgresql(dot)org>

Subject: [pgadmin-support] About debugging trigger

Hi,

I have a question about how to insert standard output statement in
trigger for debugging purpose.

I have tried using the following:

* echo 'show debug message' ;
* echo "show debug message" ;
* print("show debug message");
* print('show debug message');
* dbms_output.put_line('show debug message');
* dbms_output.put_line("show debug message");

However, I got the following error message:

* ERROR: syntax error at or near "echo" at character 1
QUERY: echo 'show debug message'
* ERROR: syntax error at or near "print" at character 1
QUERY: print('show debug message')
* ERROR: syntax error at or near "dbms_output" at character 1
QUERY: dbms_output.put_line("show debug message")

I know that in Oracle, the way to insert standard output statement in
trigger is using dbms_output.put_line() method, but it doesn't seem to
work in pgadmin.

I have already checked the frequently asked questions list as well as
the pgAdmin documentation for a solution and I also have tried searching
Google, however I can not find a solution for it. Please help when you
get a chance!

Thank you in advance,

Michael
