All,
I'm unable to find this question addressed in the archive, tho' it seems
rather obvious. One often needs to dispatch on different subsets of the
data in NEW inside a PLPGSQL trigger function. It would be most
convenient to just pass NEW itself (or NEW.*) to the function thus
called, but there doesn't seem to be any way to do that. Any use of NEW
inside a function call imbedded in the trigger function, whether in a
SELECT INTO, EXECUTE or PERFORM, leads to a:
ERROR: NEW used in query that is not in a rule
(or sometimes "relation NEW not found.")
I've seen syntax for passing a row of data in ordinary functions, but
not inside triggers.
Any enlightenment appreciated!
