maybe somthing like this:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION calendar (DATE, DATE) RETURNS SETOF DATE LANGUAGE 'plpgsql' AS '
DECLARE
    v_from ALIAS FOR $1;
    v_to ALIAS FOR $2;
    v_current DATE DEFAULT v_from;
BEGIN
    WHILE (v_current<=v_to) LOOP
        RETURN NEXT v_current;
        v_current:=v_current+1;
    END LOOP;
   
    RETURN;
END;
';

test it:
SELECT * FROM calendar('2005-01-01', '2005-01-31');

You can do that in Pg date arithmetic:

# select '1 oct 2004'::date + '1 month'::interval - '1 day'::interval;
?column?
---------------------
2004-10-31 00:00:00
(1 row)

# select '1 nov 2004'::date + '1 month'::interval - '1 day'::interval;
?column?
---------------------
2004-11-30 00:00:00
(1 row)

# select '1 feb 2004'::date + '1 month'::interval - '1 day'::interval;
?column?
---------------------
2004-02-29 00:00:00
(1 row)


Thus, given the original response to your question:

select * from calendar('1 feb 2004', ( '1 feb 2004'::date +
'1 month'::interval - '1 day'::interval )::date);

See the documentation for pg_dump. In PostgreSQL 7.4 and later,
pg_dump has a --schema (-n) option.

You might need to get creative and do some functionality in another
language, like C or PHP via the PL integration. (I know I just saw
something for PHP . . . the question is can you use PHP functions ?
? )

RTFM.

man pg_dump, search for --schema

You could use the given function with a few changes. For example,
given an arbitrary date, you could use date_trunc() to find the
first day of that date's month, add an interval of 1 month to find
the first day of the following month, and use a loop to return the
dates up to but not including the latter value.

For more information, see the "Date/Time Functions and Operators"
section in the "Functions and Operators" chapter of the documentation:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/static/functions-datetime.html

Thanks -- I was looking at a book and it didn't mention the schema dump
. . . should have done the man or --help before asking.
