Row pattern common syntax includes two sub + clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal> + and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines + definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a + logical expression, which means it must + return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal> + or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references + and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are + not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows. + +<programlisting> +DEFINE + LOWPRICE AS price <= 100, + UP AS price > PREV(price), + DOWN AS price < PREV(price) +</programlisting> + + Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the + previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in + the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal> + when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column + in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when + the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the + previous row. + </para> + <para> + Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be + used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies + certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal> + defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more + rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that + "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or + more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found, + in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and + aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look + into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. In the second or + subsequent rows all window functions and aggregates are NULL. For rows + that do not match the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are + shown AS NULL too, except count which shows 0. This is because the + unmatched rows are in an empty frame.
