of an index can now be a computed expression instead of a simple variable. Restrictions on expressions are the same as for predicates (only immutable functions, no sub-selects). This fixes problems recently introduced with inlining SQL functions, because the inlining transformation is applied to both expression trees so the planner can still match them up. Along the way, improve efficiency of handling index predicates (both predicates and index expressions are now cached by the relcache) and fix 7.3 oversight that didn't record dependencies of predicate expressions.
This directory does more than tokenize and parse SQL queries. It also creates Query structures for the various complex queries that is passed to the optimizer and then executor. parser.c things start here scan.l break query into tokens scansup.c handle escapes in input keywords.c turn keywords into specific tokens gram.y parse the tokens and fill query-type-specific structures analyze.c handle post-parse processing for each query type parse_clause.c handle clauses like WHERE, ORDER BY, GROUP BY, ... parse_coerce.c used for coercing expressions of different types parse_expr.c handle expressions like col, col + 3, x = 3 or x = 4 parse_oper.c handle operations in expressions parse_agg.c handle aggregates, like SUM(col1), AVG(col2), ... parse_func.c handle functions, table.column and column identifiers parse_node.c create nodes for various structures parse_target.c handle the result list of the query parse_relation.c support routines for tables and column handling parse_type.c support routines for type handling
