Rick Hillegas commented on DERBY-3155:
--------------------------------------
Thanks for test-driving the parse/bind changes, Knut.
o The issue with correlation names needs to be looked into. I'll investigate
this after I come up for air on the next patch I'm hacking.
o The issue with multiple WHEN [ NOT ] MATCHED clauses is fixed by a trivial
correction to the grammar, which I'll roll onto the next patch. After applying
that trivial fix, the following statement gets through the parse and bind
phases:
merge into t1
using t2
on t1.c1 = t2.c1
when matched and t1.c2 != t2.c2 then update set c2 = t2.c2
when not matched then insert ( c2 ) values ( t2.c2 );
Thanks,
-Rick

> A relatively common piece of logic in a database application is to check for
> a row's existence and then either update or insert depending on its existence.
> SQL:2003 added a MERGE statement to perform this operation. It looks like
> this:
> MERGE INTO table_name USING table_name ON (condition)
> WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE SET column1 = value1 [, column2 = value2 ...]
> WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN INSERT column1 [, column2 ...] VALUES (value1 [,
> value2 ...])
> At the moment, the only workaround for this would be to write a stored
> procedure to do the same operation, or to implement the logic client-side.
