The following bug has been logged online:
Bug reference: 4829

PostgreSQL version: 8.4.0-lb2-windo
Operating system: window 2000
Description: nth_value does not allow window frame
Details:
I type in query
select c1, c2, nth_value(c2, 2)over (partition by c1 order by c2 rows
between 1 preceding and 1 following) from tab1;
I got syntext error ' error near '1';
without window frame clause query returned correct results;
According to 2008:SQL nth_value and first_value support window frame
clause.
It looks like postgreSQl 8.4 does not allow window frame clause inside OVER
clause.
Is this the current limitatio? Or a bug.
Thank you.
