urgent: problems with query_limit

Hello experts.

I am writing my first function using the SPI_ interface.

I don't know how to access data that I just selected.

here's the outline:

my question is in the block comments

thanks a ton!!!!

mike

int32 allocate_address(int32 networkID)
{
char[255] query;

if (SPI_connect() < 0) {
return 0;
}

sprintf(query,
"Select addressID FROM networkaddress WHERE networkid = %i",
networkID);

if (SPI_exec(query, 1) < 0) {
return 0;
}

/* ############################################################ */
/* how do I access the data that I just selected ? */
/* ie I want to find the value of the each row in the select
/* ############################################################ */

SPI_finish();

return 1;
}

We upgraded our system from 6.4 to the new 6.5 version. The set query_limit function is not working

db => set query_limit to '100';
SET VARIABLE
db => select * from table;

statement is returning all records from the table. What's wrong here?

Whereas I'm not sure right now about what's wrong there, you should check
the new documentation of the SELECT command for the LIMIT specifier, as in
select * from table limit 100;
That might help.

Try: select * from table LIMIT 100;

Use the new LIMIT syntax on a SELECT query. It will be removed in the
upcoming 6.5.1.
