| Goal | Find user-defined routines with the same name and parameters (including the order of parameters) in different schemas. |
|---|---|
| Notes | Refers to the column pg_proc.prokind and thus works starting from PostgreSQL 11. In case of the string_agg function, the line break (br) tag is used as a part of the separator for the better readability in case the query result is displayed in a web browser. There could be multiple routines with the same name but with different parameters in the same schema (overloading). Thus, for the unique identification of the routine it is necessary to present also its parameters in addition to the schema name and routine name. |
| Type | General Overview of some aspect of the database. |
