|
======

This directory does more than tokenize and parse SQL queries. It also
|
|
creates Query structures for the various complex queries that are passed
|
|
to the optimizer and then executor.
|
|
|
|
parser.c things start here
|
|
scan.l break query into tokens
|
|
scansup.c handle escapes in input strings
|
|
keywords.c turn keywords into specific tokens
|
|
gram.y parse the tokens and fill query-type-specific structures
|
|
analyze.c top level of parse analysis for optimizable queries
|
|
parse_clause.c handle clauses like WHERE, ORDER BY, GROUP BY, ...
|
|
parse_coerce.c handle coercing expressions to different data types
|
|
parse_expr.c handle expressions like col, col + 3, x = 3 or x = 4
|
|
parse_oper.c handle operators 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
