Amazing. that is the first time I have heard that an optimizer does not have the concept of flattened query?
So what is the definition of syntax tree? Are you referring to the industry notation "access path". This is the first time I have heard of such notation called syntax tree. Are you stating that there is somehow some explanation for optimiser "access path" that comes out independent of the optimizer and is called syntax tree?
