Access to an element of array NEW in TCL
Hi list,
Is there a way to access an especific element of the array NEW in an TCL
trigger, I have a loop that goes for each field (thanks Ian & Darren)
like this:
foreach id [array names NEW] {
then I can refer to an element with this (inside the loop):
$NEW($id)
I do need to make a reference to an especific column name (duser) in
that array to get its value, I already tried $NEW(duser),
$NEW(\'duser\') but didn't work. I'll appreciate any help from you
Thanks

The way you have it should work i.e. if the NEW array has a field called
duser in it you will be able to access it using $NEW(duser)
Put in an elog notice and do [array names NEW] in it.
Run the function and see what variables are available to you then you
should be able to call them just like shown below
-bash-2.05b$ tclsh
% set NEW(duser) darren
darren
% set NEW(cuser) carl
carl
% foreach id [array names NEW] { puts $NEW($id) }
carl
darren
% puts $NEW(duser)
darren
% puts $NEW(cuser)
carl

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@postgresql.org)

Hi Darren,
You are right, it was something missing in my code the \' to escape the
quote.
Thanks.
