What about simple things like this? CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION z(numeric) RETURNS boolean AS $$ BEGIN RETURN $1 <> 0; END; $$ LANGUAGE plpgSQL IMMUTABLE COST 1000; -- This one works: WITH T AS ( SELECT 1.0 AS v1, 0.0 AS v2 UNION ALL SELECT 3.0, 1.0 UNION ALL SELECT 2.0, 0.0 ), a AS ( SELECT * FROM t WHERE z(v2) ) SELECT * FROM a WHERE v1/v2 > 1.5; -- This one gives 'division by zero': WITH T AS ( SELECT 1.0 AS v1, 0.0 AS v2 UNION ALL SELECT 3.0, 1.0 UNION ALL SELECT 2.0, 0.0 ) SELECT * FROM ( SELECT * FROM t WHERE z(v2) ) AS a WHERE v1/v2 > 1.5; ----- WBR, Yaroslav Schekin. -- View this message in context: http://www.postgresql-archive.org/CTE-inlining-tp5958992p5961086.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - hackers mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
