Julian Hyde commented on PHOENIX-953: ------------------------------------- I'm skeptical. It's hard to do de-correlation, and even harder if you haven't done semantic analysis on the sound basis of having implemented LATERAL. Calcite's semantic analyzer and de-correlation are more advanced than Phoenix's, yet with CALCITE-816 I'm finding and fixing big holes in Calcite's support for sub-queries and de-correlation. > Support UNNEST for ARRAY > ------------------------ > > Key: PHOENIX-953 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-953 > Project: Phoenix > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: James Taylor > Assignee: Dumindu Buddhika > Attachments: PHOENIX-953-v1.patch > > > The UNNEST built-in function converts an array into a set of rows. This is > more than a built-in function, so should be considered an advanced project. > For an example, see the following Postgres documentation: > http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/static/functions-array.html > http://www.anicehumble.com/2011/07/postgresql-unnest-function-do-many.html > http://tech.valgog.com/2010/05/merging-and-manipulating-arrays-in.html > So the UNNEST is a way of converting an array to a flattened "table" which > can then be filtered on, ordered, grouped, etc. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
