I have partitioned a table based on period (e.g., cdate >=

Now, I am issuing query like cdate >= CURRENT_DATE - 1 and cdate <=
CURRENT_DATE, it scans all the partitions. But if I do cdate >=
'2007-01-01'::date and cdate<=.2007-03-31'::date it picks the correct
partition. Also if I join the cdate field with another table, it does
not pick the correct partition.
I would like to know if it is possible to pick the correct partition
using the above example.
from http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/ddl-partitioning.html
..."For the same reason, "stable" functions such as CURRENT_DATE must be
avoided. Joining the partition key to a column of another table will not be
optimized, either."...
