interpret a column name as an output column alias (targetlist AS name),
ather than a real column name as it ought to. According to the spec,
only ORDER BY should look at output column names. I left in GROUP BY's
willingness to use an output column number ('GROUP BY 2'), even though
this is also contrary to the spec --- again, only ORDER BY is supposed
to accept that. But there is no possible reason to want to GROUP BY
an integer constant, so keeping this old behavior won't break any
SQL-compliant queries. DISTINCT ON will behave the same as GROUP BY.
Change numerology regress test, which depended on the incorrect
behavior.
This directory does more than tokenize and parse SQL queries. It also creates Query structures for the various complex queries that is passed to the optimizer and then executor. parser.c things start here scan.l break query into tokens scansup.c handle escapes in input keywords.c turn keywords into specific tokens gram.y parse the tokens and fill query-type-specific structures analyze.c handle post-parse processing for each query type parse_clause.c handle clauses like WHERE, ORDER BY, GROUP BY, ... parse_coerce.c used for coercing expressions of different types parse_expr.c handle expressions like col, col + 3, x = 3 or x = 4 parse_oper.c handle operations in expressions parse_agg.c handle aggregates, like SUM(col1), AVG(col2), ... parse_func.c handle functions, table.column and column identifiers parse_node.c create nodes for various structures parse_target.c handle the result list of the query parse_relation.c support routines for tables and column handling parse_type.c support routines for type handling
