Title kind of says it all, here is a sample query: BEGIN DECLARE LOCAL TEMPORARY TABLE tmp(id INTEGER, val VARCHAR(20)); SELECT * FROM sys.syscolumns WHERE tname = 'tmp'; END; Any ideas? |
I found a workaround: BEGIN DECLARE LOCAL TEMPORARY TABLE tmp(id INTEGER, val VARCHAR(20)); SELECT * FROM sa_describe_query('select * from tmp'); END; Nice, I just wanted to mentioned another answer - with exactly that solution.

AFAIK, you cannot, because by definition local temporary tables – in contrast to permanent tables and global temporary tables – are not contained in the system catalog. Catalog queries like in your sample or builtin functions like the sa_get_table_definition() system procedure rely on the system catalog to provide information, so they won't offer information for local temporary tables. FWIW, the table SYSTAB itself specifies that the column "table_type" is set to 4 in case of a "Local temporary table", so my assumption might be wrong. |
