Re: [SQL] Select & Tables X Select & Views

Rodrigo -
Are you reporting a bug, or looking for advice? Here's how it works
for me:

I ran this script:

create table taba (a1 int);
create table tabb (b1 char);
insert into taba (1);
insert into taba values (1);
insert into taba values (2);
insert into taba values (3);
insert into tabb values ('a');
insert into tabb values ('b');
create view viewb as select * from tabb;

And here are the tests:
test=> select version();
version
--------------------------------------------------------------
PostgreSQL 6.5.0 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc 2.7.2.3
(1 row)

test=> select * from taba, tabb;
a1|b1
--+--
1|a
2|a
3|a
1|b
2|b
3|b
(6 rows)

test=> select * from taba, viewb;
a1|b1
--+--
1|a
2|a
3|a
1|b
2|b
3|b
(6 rows)

test=>

So, it looks like your view definition is broken, or your using an
old version of pgsql.
