Fay Wang commented on OPENJPA-1483:
-----------------------------------
Hi Milosz, thank you for pointing out this. Common table expression and table
expression semantically are the same, but syntactically, they are quite
different. For cte, you can define once and use it multiple times. it is like a
function definition of a program. In this JIRA, it is table expression, but not
common table expression that is required:
SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT G1.G1PK, G1.G2PK
FROM F1 t0 INNER JOIN G2 t1 ON t0.G1PK = t1.G1PK AND t0.G2PK = t1.G2PK)) TX;
> count (Distinct e) in JPQL gives wrong result when the id field is a compound
> primary key

> This is a fundamental problem with count when compound primary key is
> involved.
> (1) If no relation navigation is involved:
> String jpql = "SELECT COUNT (DISTINCT e) FROM G2 e";
> With the property below:
> <property name="openjpa.jdbc.DBDictionary"
> value="db2(useWildCardForCount=true)" />
> Openjpa will generate the following sql and return the correct count:
> SELECT COUNT(*) FROM G2 t0 optimize for 1 row
> (2) If there is relation navigation invloved:
> String jpql = "SELECT COUNT (DISTINCT f1.g2) FROM F1 f1";
>
> The property of useWildCardForCount will not generate correct sql with
> right result. However, given the object-relational impedance mismatch, there
> is no corresponding SQL construct for count of multiple primary keys, and
> there is no clean and generic solution to solve this problem. The only
> workaround is to use native SQL with table expression:
> SELECT COUNT(*)
> FROM (SELECT DISTINCT G1.G1PK, G1.G2PK FROM F1 t0 INNER JOIN G2 t1 ON
> t0.G1PK = t1.G1PK AND t0.G2PK = t1.G2PK)) TX;
> Rather than giving a wrong answer, OpenJPA should give an Unsupported
> exception.
