To obtain the values of the fields the record is made up of,
884+
the record variable can be qualified with the column or field
885+
name. This can be done either by literally using the column name
886+
or the column name for indexing the record can be taken out of a scalar
887+
variable. The syntax for this notation is Record_variable.(IndexVariable).
888+
To get information about the column field names of the record,
889+
a special expression exists that returns all column names as an array:
890+
RecordVariable.(*) .
891+
Thus, the RECORD can be viewed
892+
as an associative array that allows for introspection of it's contents.
893+
This feature is especially useful for writing generic triggers that
894+
operate on records with unknown structure.
895+
Here is an example procedure that shows column names and values
896+
of the predefined record NEW in a trigger procedure:
897+
<programlisting>
898+
899+
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION show_associative_records() RETURNS TRIGGER AS $$

colnames := NEW.(*);

RAISE NOTICE 'All column names of test record: %', colnames;
910+
-- show field names and contents of record
911+
coli := 1;
912+
coln := array_upper(colnames,1);
913+
RAISE NOTICE 'Number of columns in NEW: %', coln;
914+
FOR coli IN 1 .. coln LOOP
915+
colname := colnames[coli];
916+
colcontent := NEW.(colname);
917+
RAISE NOTICE 'column % of NEW: %', quote_ident(colname), quote_literal(colcontent);
918+
END LOOP;
919+
-- Do it with a fixed field name:
920+
-- will have to know the column name
921+
RAISE NOTICE 'column someint of NEW: %', quote_literal(NEW.someint);
922+
RETURN NULL;
