So, should this be a separate patch? One of my concerns about this patch is that it's got a lot of stuff in it that isn't obviously related to the patch. Anything that is a separate change should be separated out into its own patch. Perhaps you can post a set of patches that apply one on top of the next, with the changes for each one clearly separated. > e) Each source relation must not have any local filter > Evaluating conditions of join source talbe potentially produces > different result in OUTER join cases.

I think this restriction is a sign that you're not really doing this right. Consider: (1) SELECT * FROM a LEFT JOIN b ON a.x = b.x AND b.x = 3; (2) SELECT * FROM a LEFT JOIN b ON a.x = b.x WHERE b.x = 3; If you push down the scan of b, you can include the b.x = 3 qual in case (1) but not in case (2). If you push down the join, you can include the qual in either case, but you must attach it in the same place where it was before. > One big change about deparsing base relation is aliasing.

I'm not sure this is a good idea. The column labels are pointless at the outermost level. I'm not sure it isn't a good idea, either, but I have some doubts. > One thing tricky is "peusdo projection" which is done by > deparseProjectionSql for whole-row reference.

Although I know progress has been slow, I think this work is really important to the project. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
