As I see, PostgreSQL is very liberal and accepts a lot of boolean expressions, but it is not accordingly to the standard. Can you confirm, accordingly to the standard, these are not valid expressions? - WHERE 1 = 1 >= true - WHERE (1 = 1) >= true accordingly to rules: <boolean predicand> ::= <parenthesized boolean value expression> | <nonparenthesized value expression primary> <nonparenthesized value expression primary> ::= <unsigned value specification> <column reference> <set function specification> <window function> <scalar subquery> <case expression> <cast specification> <field reference> <subtype treatment> <method invocation> <static method invocation> <new specification> <attribute or method reference> <reference resolution> <collection value constructor> <array element reference> <multiset element reference> Adriano ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get 100% visibility into Java/.NET code with AppDynamics Lite!
