I have got simple functions to work in DB2 but I am unable to get any functions to work which declare a global temporary table. I am aware the DB2 version and platform is vastly different but I thought this should be possible as it worked for this poster.
CREATE FUNCTION FuncTest1 ()
RETURNS TABLE
(
USE_NAME VARCHAR(48),
USE_PARTNER_LINK FLOAT
)
LANGUAGE SQL
MODIFIES SQL DATA
DETERMINISTIC
BEGIN
DECLARE GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE USE_TRUNC
(
USE_NAME VARCHAR(48) NULL,
USE_PARTNER_LINK FLOAT NULL
);
INSERT INTO SESSION.USE_TRUNC
(USE_NAME,USE_PARTNER_LINK)
SELECT USE_NAME,USE_PARTNER_LINK FROM F_USERS;
RETURN
SELECT USE_NAME,USE_PARTNER_LINK FROM F_USERS;
END
The errors vary widely as I try different things but this is the current output:
An unexpected token "USE_NAME" was found following "
RETURN
SELECT". Expected tokens may include: "(".. SQLCODE=-104, SQLSTATE=42601, DRIVER=4.9.78
Added fiddle
CREATE FUNCTION (SQL scalar, table, or row) statement, v9.7:
-| (3)| '-MODIFIES SQL DATA-----' ... |--+-RETURN----------------------+------------------------------| | (5) | +-Compound SQL (compiled)-----+ '-Compound SQL (inlined)------'
...
3. Valid if RETURNS specifies a table (that is, TABLE column-list). Also valid if RETURNS specifies a scalar result and the SQL-function-body is a compound SQL (compiled) statement.
...
5. The compound SQL (compiled) statement is supported only for an SQL-function-body in an SQL scalar function definition. It is not supported for SQL table function definitions.
CREATE FUNCTION (SQL scalar, table, or row) statement, v11.1:
-| (4) | '-MODIFIES SQL DATA-----'
...
4. Valid only for compiled scalar function definition and an inlined table function definition.
You can't use MODIFIED SQL DATA
with Compound SQL (compiled)
(BEGIN ... END
) for a table function. And DECLARE GTT
statement is not supported by Compound SQL (inlined)
(BEGIN ATOMIC ... END
).
So, rewrite your table function not using Declared GTTs & INSERTs. Or try Created GTT, but create them beforehand (not in the function body).
You may use a single SELECT
statement with Common Table Expression
:
CREATE FUNCTION ...
...
RETURN
