If I were to approach this, I would see how ORDER BY is implemented and track all those places down and then see whether I need to make analogous changes there. -- Peter Eisentraut http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
[GENERAL] Adding a new Clause in the Source Code
Recently I started to take a look at Postgresql on the Source Level. I wanted to extend the Parser by a simple Clause which isn't as easy as I expected. Hence I'm here asking for help. This might seem trivial for a Person which is able to answer this Question but please take a moment of your time and help a fellow coder out. My Objective is to add a new Clause after the WHERE Clause in a SELECT Statement which modifys the order of my result. I allready invested some time to get familar with the Bison part in source\src\backend\parser so adding new Keywords seems possible. The question now is in which Files do I need to add what to make it work. Yes this question seems a bit broad but Information I found was confusing or outdated. I would really appreciate if someone could hack me a quick example of a new clause lets call it ADDITIONAL with Keywords HIGH, LOW to order columns. I just want the construct. What the Keywords accomplish and the Algorithm is something I'm gonna try to figure out on my own. I just need to know in which File and which Line I need to enter my Code. I appreciate any help I can get and if needed I'll add some additional Information.
