Antonio Piccolboni commented on SPARK-8989: ------------------------------------------- Test schema and data CREATE TABLE Table1 (key varchar(2), id int, value float) ; INSERT INTO Table1 (key, id, value) VALUES ('ab', 1, 1.1), ('bc', 2, 2.2), ('df', 3, 3.3), ('ab', 1, 1.2), ('bc', 2, 2.3), ('df', 3, 3.4) ; Test query SELECT key, id, value FROM Table1 GROUP BY key HAVING max(value) = value; Support: mysql 5.6: needs `` quoting, runs but results incorrect oracle 11g: can't create table, missing keyword postgreSQL 9.3: no, id must appear in group by SQLite (WebSQL): yes MS SQL server: can't create table -- incorrect syntax Tested via http://sqlfiddle.com/ I supposes we can chalk it up to some SQLite specific extension. > Support aggregations in HAVING clause > ------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-8989 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-8989 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: SQL > Affects Versions: 1.4.0 > Reporter: Antonio Piccolboni > Labels: aggregate, sql > > It seems like query of the type > SELECT keys, id, value FROM table GROUP BY keys HAVING max(value) = value > Are not working or supported (I selected issue type enhancement under the > assumption it's the latter). The use case is very natural, for each group > find the record attaining the maximum for a certain row-dependent expression, > and return any selection of fields from that row together with the grouping > keys. I know how to work around this with a join, but it's a considerably > more involved query and therefore I thought worth asking if this is my > misunderstanding, a shortcoming in the implementation of HAVING, a > nice-to-have but not really on the road map or "that's crazy what kind of > rotten database would accept this nonsense?" (by the way, I think PostgresSQL > does; not sure how many other DBs do) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
