Since procedures are now a different thing from functions, change the CREATE TRIGGER and CREATE EVENT TRIGGER syntax to use FUNCTION in the clause that specifies the function. PROCEDURE is still accepted for compatibility. pg_dump and ruleutils.c output is not changed yet, because that would require a change in information_schema.sql and thus a catversion change.

The <filename>tcn</filename> module provides a trigger function that notifies
|
|
listeners of changes to any table on which it is attached. It must be
|
|
used as an <literal>AFTER</literal> trigger <literal>FOR EACH ROW</literal>.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Only one parameter may be supplied to the function in a
|
|
<literal>CREATE TRIGGER</literal> statement, and that is optional. If supplied
|
|
it will be used for the channel name for the notifications. If omitted
|
|
<literal>tcn</literal> will be used for the channel name.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
The payload of the notifications consists of the table name, a letter to
|
|
indicate which type of operation was performed, and column name/value pairs
|
|
for primary key columns. Each part is separated from the next by a comma.
|
|
For ease of parsing using regular expressions, table and column names are
|
|
always wrapped in double quotes, and data values are always wrapped in
|
|
single quotes. Embedded quotes are doubled.
