Comment (by datac0re):
(I apologize if this double posts, but the formatting of the original
ticket messes up what I'm trying to say)
In 1.2.0.7962 when crafting the following conditions, the generated SQL
does not match with what I would expect. Maybe this is a bug, maybe it's
by design, but if it is by design, I feel that the behavior is counter-
intuitive and may cause people to not get what they are looking for (it
happened to me!).
Example:
{{{
$model->find('all', array(
'conditions' => array(
'id >' => 25
'NOT' => array(
'src' => '',
'lastapp' => 'MeetMe'
)
)
));
}}}
I would expect the SQL to generate the following:
{{{
1. WHERE id > 25 AND NOT (src = '' and lastapp = 'MeetMe')
}}}
instead, this is what is generated:
{{{
2. WHERE id > 25 AND (NOT (`src` = '') AND NOT (`lastapp` = 'MeetMe'))
}}}
The two statements are NOT equal (i.e. the NOT operator isn't
distributive)
See the following tests:
{{{
Ex 1:
src = ''
lastapp = 'MeetMe'
Query 1: NOT (TRUE and TRUE) = FALSE
Query 2: NOT (TRUE) and NOT (TRUE) = FALSE
Ex 2:
src = 'anything'
lastapp = 'MeetMe'
Query 1: NOT (FALSE AND TRUE) = TRUE
Query 2: NOT (FALSE) and NOT (TRUE) = FALSE
Ex 3:
src = ''
lastapp = 'anything'
Query 1: NOT (TRUE AND FALSE) = TRUE
Query 2: NOT (TRUE) and NOT (FALSE) = FALSE
Ex 4:
src = 'anything'
lastapp = 'anything
Query 1: NOT (FALSE AND FALSE) = TRUE
Query 2: NOT (FALSE) and NOT (FALSE) = TRUE
}}}
Example 2 and 4 show that the statements are not equal. I've verified it
by also doing both versions of the queries and getting counts back that
differ.
