Hi, It makes sense to me. Thanks for the introductions.

What I mean is that the order of pattern variables in SUBSET clause does not matter. User can put them in whatever order he/she likes. LAST/FIRST etc. will account for the order in PATTERN clause. So in general (SUBSET X = (A,B)) = (SUBSET X = (B,A)). This is my understanding from[1]. Also it would be nice to actually verify this behavior with ORACLE. Can not tell anything about concrete implementation decisions though. Don't know why sortedSet was used there.

Let me take an example: SUBSET X=(A,B) I’m not very sure about the implementations of Oracle, but I’m curious that why we use sortedSet to store the elements(A,B) of SUBSET if we don’t need the “sorted”.

The PATTERN clause specifies the definitive order of pattern variables. SUBSET clause just groups them as a single entity you can reference. Therefore LAST/FIRST/PREV/NEXT/AFTER MATCH etc. will take into account only order in the PATTERN clause.

Is there a query that gives different results on Oracle if you change the order of items in SUBSET? It seems that the parser preserves the order of items in the subset, but the SqlToRelConverter does not, hence the line "subsets=[[[DOWN, STRT]]” in SqlToRelConverterTest.xml. I would be concerned if the parser re-ordered things, but I am not too concerned about SqlToRelConverter unless the semantics are wrong.

Now I’ve encountered a problem about the subsets for MATCH_RECOGNIZE in thetestMatchRecognizeSubset1() testing. From the results, I can tell that"subset stdn = (strt, down)"will be explained to "SUBSET \"STDN\" = (\"DOWN\", \"STRT\”)”, which confuses me. IMO, It’ll affect the result of functions like“FIRST” and“LAST”, which may not be what I want, although it works fine with“AVG” function. I’m not sure if this is a bug, or anyone can tell me how we arrive here? Best, Jiayi Liao
