Yes, Nevertheless I don't think that replacement the keywords with the fuction 'now' cannot results in error and the function 'now' itself cannot throw errors before significant changes is made, of course there is no "never". tgl> The second patch might be all right, though I'm a bit disturbed by its tgl> dependency on gram.h constants. The numeric values of those change on a tgl> regular basis, and who's to say that these are exactly the set of tokens tgl> that we care about? I felt the same anxiety. The code seems largely unstable because mainly of the last reason. There seems no viable (and stable) means to check and/or keep the pertinence of the token set. So I also begged(?) for the third way. tgl> In the end, really the cleanest fix for this would be to get rid of the tgl> grammar's translation of these special functions into hacky expressions. tgl> They ought to get translated into some new node type(s) that could be tgl> reverse-listed in standard form by ruleutils.c. I've wanted to do that tgl> for years, but never got around to it ... Yes, that's what somewhat worried me. That way enables us to use the lexical locations without extra care. (although also seems to be a bit too heavy labor for the gain..) - CURRENT_TIME and the like are parsed into the nodes directly represents the node specs in gram.y - add transform.. uh.. transformDatetimeFuncs or something to transform the nodes into executable form, perhaps. But it should be after pg_stat_statements refer to the query tree. - modify ruleutils.c in corresponding part if needed. Since this becomes more than a simple bug fix, I think it is too late for 9.4 now. I'll work on this in the longer term.
