Bug reference: 15237
Logged by: zhou xiaowei
Email address: 110876189@qq.com
PostgreSQL version: 11beta1
Operating system: centos
Description:
On PostgreSQL 11 Beta, I exec sql like "update
fvt_obj_operate_update_table_033 set (c_int) = (20) where c_int = 20;",
which only on column to set, got ""ERROR: source for a multiple-column
UPDATE item must be a sub-SELECT or ROW() expression"".
But I exec sql like "update fvt_obj_operate_update_table_033 set
(c_int,c_dp) = (20,1.11) where c_int = 20;", got successfull message.
Detail:
postgres=# \d fvt_obj_operate_update_table_033

The cause of this error is because syntax rule conflict between "'(' a_expr
')' opt_indirection" and "implicit_row: '(' expr_list ',' a_expr ')'".I
think "'(' a_expr ')'" is also a subset of row.
I want to modify it，but didn‘t got a good idea.
Please help,thanks!
