> Support implicit table references for nested fields in SQL
> ----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-6562
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-6562
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Table API & SQL
> Reporter: Haohui Mai
> Assignee: Haohui Mai
>
> Currently nested fields can only be accessed through fully qualified
> identifiers. For example, users need to specify the following query for the
> table {{f}} that has a nested field {{foo.bar}}
> {noformat}
> SELECT f.foo.bar FROM f
> {noformat}
> Other query engines like Hive / Presto supports implicit table references.
> For example:
> {noformat}
> SELECT foo.bar FROM f
> {noformat}
> This jira proposes to support the latter syntax in the SQL API.
