Subject: no documentation for (compval).* field selection
Date: Tue, 05 Oct 2010 11:58:24 +0300
Message-ID: <1286269105.16817.8.camel@vanquo.pezone.net> (raw)
I couldn't find any documentation for using .* to select all fields
(attributes) of a composite type value, e.g.,
CREATE TYPE comp_t AS (intval integer, textval varchar(32));
CREATE TABLE t4 (compval comp_t);
SELECT (compval).* FROM t4;
The only place this is used is in the hstore documentation.
Would it be appropriate to document this in section "4.2.4. Field
Selection", or is this a special case of some other construct that is
already documented?
