Jay,
The "railroad" diagrams are not definitive, and are meant more as an illustrative guideline, then a strict grammar. They do not directly reflect the actual parse tree used by the SQLite parser.
I know that but this one is fairly easy to fix. You're right to point out that strictly following those "rails" can produce non-sensical statements or semantics that SQLite won't accept. Fixing this would require a complete rework using a much more complex notation (which would then tend to be too intricate for practical use).
Best proof is that Richard already fixed it! Thanks Richard. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
