Knut Anders Hatlen updated DERBY-6423:
--------------------------------------
Description:
This syntax gives an error:
{noformat}
> VALUES CASE WHEN 1=1 THEN (1=2) OR (3!=4) ELSE true END;
ERROR 42X01: Syntax error: Encountered "OR" at line 1, column 33.
{noformat}
However, this works:
{noformat}
> VALUES CASE WHEN 1=1 THEN ((1=2) OR (3!=4)) ELSE true END;
1
-----
true
1 row selected
{noformat}
According to the standard, the syntax after THEN should be <result>:
{noformat}
<result> ::=
<result expression>
| NULL
<result expression> ::=
<value expression>
{noformat}
which should give us the full value syntax. sqlgrammar.jj uses the
corresponding production "thenElseExpression" which allows NULL or
aditiveExpression. I believe it should be orExpression.
