I could live with that versus a configurable warning. It's simpler and makes it less likely that someone will accidentally get incorrect results without realizing it. If we confirm that the standard specifies a left-to-right evaluation (which I seem to recall, but wouldn't trust that memory without confirmation), we could consider loosening it up five or ten years down the road, once everyone has code that works with this stricter implementation. -- Kevin Grittner EDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
