This compiles (heard that before?):

                     ctx.insertInto(PROBANDSET)
                    .set(PROBANDSET.ID, newsetId)
                    .set(PROBANDSET.NAME, pedfile.getName())
                    .set(PROBANDSET.PROBANDS,
   ctx.select(arrayAgg(PERSON.ID)).from(ctx.select(PERSON.ID)
   .from(PERSON)
   .where(PERSON.NAME.in(idList))
   .orderBy(PERSON.ID).asTable("id")))
                    .execute();

but of course arrayAgg(PERSON.ID) isn't found at runtime. Not sure how to fake a field as the arrayAgg() parameter.

Hi Rob,

Thanks for your enquiry. Interesting! Can you point me to the doc page where this ORDER BY clause is documented, I somehow cannot seem to find it. I wasn't aware of this syntax possibility.

The error you're getting is because jOOQ always generates an automatic alias (in your case "alias_49688522") for your derived tables, because that's a syntactic requirement in most databases. In that sense, the "person" table ceases to exist syntactically outside of your derived table. So, neither your ARRAY_AGG() operation, nor your ORDER BY clause can make use of the qualified PERSON.ID <http://PERSON.ID> column. You have two options:

1) Use an unqualified reference to the column (e.g. using plain SQL)
2) provide an explicit alias to your derived table: "person", e.g. by using table(Select).as(PERSON), or select.asTable(PERSON)

Hope this helps,
Lukas

    I'm having a hard time constructing an ordered array using version
    3.9 on postgres 9.6.  I can't seem to get the equivalent of either
    of these approaches

        select (person.id <http://person.id> order by person.id
        <http://person.id>) from person where person.name
        <http://person.name> in (<list of names>);

        select array_agg(s.id <http://s.id>) from (select p.id
        <http://p.id> from seg.person as p where p.name
        <http://p.name> in (<list of names>) order by p.id
        <http://p.id>) as s;

    This compiles

                ctx.insertInto(PROBANDSET)
                    .set(PROBANDSET.ID <http://PROBANDSET.ID>, newsetId)
                    .set(PROBANDSET.NAME <http://PROBANDSET.NAME>,
        pedfile.getName())
                    .set(PROBANDSET.PROBANDS,
        ctx.select(arrayAgg(PERSON.ID
        <http://PERSON.ID>)).from(ctx.select(PERSON.ID
        <http://PERSON.ID>).from(PERSON).where(PERSON.NAME.in
        <http://PERSON.NAME.in>(idList)).orderBy(PERSON.ID
        <http://PERSON.ID>)))
                    .execute();

    but generates a runtime sql message

        org.jooq.exception.DataAccessException: SQL [insert into
        "seg"."probandset" ("id", "name", "probands") values (?, ?,
        (select array_agg("seg"."person"."id") from (select
        "seg"."person"."id" from "seg"."person" where
        "seg"."person"."name" in (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?) order by
        "seg"."person"."id" asc) as "alias_49688522"))]; ERROR:
        missing FROM-clause entry for table "person"
          Position: 93

    and I can't find the right spot to add another '.from(PERSON)'.

    Any help appreciated
