Hi,

forgive me the poor English for the writing, for technique reading is a
little better..

Sees, below, that it seems to have one bug in set transform_null_equals
or, then, in <> NULL.


This fact occurs in Versions:  7.4.5 and 8.0.0-rc2.


-- Creation with transform_null_equals set to off

set transform_null_equals to OFF;


--drop table cntpagit1;

Create table cntpagit1 (VALORPG numeric(10,2), DTPAGTO dates);


ALTER TABLE CNTPAGIT1

ADD CONSTRAINT TTT

CHECK ((VALORPG > 0 AND DTPAGTO <> NULL) OR

(VALORPG = 0 AND DTPAGTO = NULL));


-- They see as it was in the Catalog

-- Table:  CNTPAGIT1

-- DROP TABLE CNTPAGIT1;

CREATE TABLE cntpagit1

(
valorpg numeric(10,2), dtpagto date,

CONSTRAINT ttt

CHECK (valorpg > 0::numeric AND dtpagto <> NULL::date OR

valorpg = 0::numeric AND dtpagto = NULL::date)

) WITH OIDS;

ALTER TABLE cntpagit1 OWNER postgres;


-- Result of sql.


insert into cntpagit1 values(1, NULL);

Query returned successfully:  one row 20540 with OID inserted, 60 ms
execution times.

insert into cntpagit1 values(0, '20050115 ');

Query returned successfully:  one row 20541 with OID inserted, 60 ms
execution times.



-- Creation with transform_null_equals set to on


set transform_null_equals to ON;


-- drop table cntpagit1;

Create table cntpagit1 ( VALORPG numeric(10,2), DTPAGTO dates);

ALTER TABLE CNTPAGIT1

ADD CONSTRAINT TTT

CHECK ((VALORPG > 0 AND DTPAGTO <> NULL) OR

(VALORPG = 0 AND DTPAGTO = NULL));


-- They see as it was in the Catalog.

-- Table:  CNTPAGIT1

-- DROP TABLE CNTPAGIT1;

CREATE TABLE cntpagit1 (valorpg numeric(10,2), dtpagto dates,

--- *** Has one bug in the transformation of <> NULL for IS NOT NULL? ***

CONSTRAINT ttt CHECK (valorpg > 0::numeric AND dtpagto <> NULL::date OR
valorpg = 0::numeric AND dtpagto IS NULL)

) WITH OIDS;


ALTER TABLE cntpagit1 OWNER postgres;


-- Result of sql.

insert into cntpagit1 values(1, NULL);

Query returned successfully:  one row 20545 with OID inserted, 70 ms
execution times.

insert into cntpagit1 values(0, '20050115 ');

ERROR:  new row will be relation "cntpagit1" violates check constraint "ttt"


-- Creating the check with IS NOT NULL and IS NULL funcionou correctly.
