Hi there, lately, I am encountering wrong fetches (with FrontBase, if important). I log out my qualifier and SQL, and the gist of the problem is a join in the OR-part of the qualifier. I want to fetch rows where there's an empty attribute, OR when there's a specific join:
06:52:06.510 DEBUG -> ((savedPresentationEndDate = null) or (lastValidPriceOfferCache.user = (model.DBUser)'[rc/Registration centre#1000004]')) Alas, SQL-level, it boils down to something entirely different: 06:52:06.535 DEBUG "DBAuction"@318794136 expression took 1 ms: SELECT ... FROM "T_AUCTION" t0, "T_PRICE_OFFER" T1 WHERE (T1."C_CREATOR_ID" = 1000004 OR t0."C_PRESENTATION_END_DATE" is NULL) AND t0."C_LAST_VALID_PRICE_OFFER_CACHE" = T1."C_UID" The SQL generator properly sets up the OR checking the right target PK, but then, instead of placing the join into the OR-part where it belongs to, it forces the join absolute to the entire condition — even to the NULL-check which should be completely independent. That self-evidently is not what I need here: if t0."C_PRESENTATION_END_DATE" is NULL, I want to fetch the row regardless of whatever vaue there is or is not in the C_LAST_VALID_PRICE_OFFER_CACHE foreign key. Actually, if there happens to be NULL in C_PRESENTATION_END_DATE, I would prefer if the SQL-level would not try to join at all, for it is self-evidently superfluous. I've tried manually SELECT * FROM "T_AUCTION" t0, "T_PRICE_OFFER" T1 WHERE (t0."C_PRESENTATION_END_DATE" is NULL) OR (T1."C_CREATOR_ID" = 1000004 AND t0."C_LAST_VALID_PRICE_OFFER_CACHE" = T1."C_UID") which is what, I believe, the SQL generator should have created from the qualifier, and it seems to work (at least, it produces no error; I cannot easily check whether the rows returned are OK. but they seem to t the first look). Can perhaps anybody see how to fix the problem? (But for by generating directly my SQL at the application level, which I can do if need be, but would rather not, unless really the only way.) Thanks, OC
