I would like to ask what's the reason of change SELECT behaviour.
In distributions below 9.4 SELECT without any parameters caused a syntax
error and now gives empty set. Was it made for some bigger aim ? :)
for instance 8.4:
postgres=# select version();
version
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PostgreSQL 8.4.17 on i486-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC gcc-4.4.real
(Debian 4.4.5-8) 4.4.5, 32-bit
(1 wiersz)
postgres=# select
postgres-# ;
ERROR: syntax error at or near ";"
LINIA 2: ;
and 9.4:
psql (9.4.4)
Type "help" for help.
postgres=# select
postgres-# ;
--
(1 row)
