next release: lateral since it is easy. I think it is effectively just a prefix operator on tablerefs (can appear like this from lateral a, from lateral a,b, from a, lateral b, from a natural join lateral b (although all of these are sematically garbage, this is the valid syntax) more dots: implement as dot operator row ctor: row(a,b) is fine, but also when there is 2 or more elements, the word row can be omitted: (a,b) more symbolic operators, array access a[5]? don't think this is standard sql, if not, leave for now. There is something about arrays in sql:2008 window frames and named windows review tests to copy from hssqlppp order by nulls first/last extend case group by extensions. Question: some of the syntax can be represented by app and row ctor, should this be reused or new syntax created (the standard has special syntax for cube and rollup). table, values collate? -> postfix operator which binds very tightly: a < 'foo' collate 'C' -> Op "<" [Iden "a", SpecialOp "collate" [StringLit 'foo', StringLit 'C']] also postfix in order by: select a from t order by a collate 'C': add to order by syntax, one collation per column function table reference much more table reference tests, for joins and aliases etc. ansi standard versions of limit and offset OFFSET start { ROW | ROWS } FETCH { FIRST | NEXT } [ count ] { ROW | ROWS } ONLY -> + fix the abstract syntax to match this instead of postgres (keep the postgres syntax version parser) in the postgresql docs, the start and count must be in parens unless they are a single integer + sql server top syntax quoted identifiers and proper character sets for identifiers run through postgres docs and add example sql as tests review internal sql collection for more syntax/tests all ansi sql operators escapes in string literals review syntax to replace maybe and bool with better ctors ---- add to website: pretty printed tpch, maybe other queries as demonstration demo: convert tpch to sql server syntax exe processor ---- dialect framework try to implement fixity without the hse hack position annotation? review abstract syntax (e.g. combine App with SpecialOp?) ---- Later general tasks: run through other manuals for example queries and features: sql in a nutshell, sql guide, sql reference guide, sql standard, sql server manual, oracle manual, teradata manual + re-through postgresql manual and make notes in each case of all syntax and which isn't currently supported also. check the order of exports, imports and functions/cases in the files fix up the import namespaces/explicit names nicely do some tests for parse errors? left factor parsing code in remaining places quasi quotes? = sql support placeholder/positional arg full number literals -> other bases? apply, pivot within group aggregate syntax try to do full review of sql2003 query syntax make ansi dialect which only supports ansi sql. Maybe there is a use for a separate SQL 92, 99 and 2003 dialects? other dialect targets: postgres oracle teradata ms sql server mysql? db2? maybe later: other dml insert, update, delete, truncate, merge + set, show?
