> @sweb I know you have spent a lot of time on this so I know its painful but I do think that we should built to the Postgres spec which will allow regex to be passed in via a columnar value. How we implement that behind the scene allows optimisation but the spec allows each row to be individually processed with a different regex. > > To clarify: I am not sure if anyone _actually_ uses SQL like this but it is a consistent implementation pattern in Postgres where a Scalar and Columnar value is treated equally - which I think is an elegant design. @seddonm1 all good, thanks for your reply. I just wanted to make sure that the kernel is useful. I will adjust it accordingly and maybe we can refactor some stuff later on, since I will probably copy several parts of your implementation. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
