Hello, this looks to be a kind of thinko. The attached patch
fixes it.
===
According to the comment of transformGroupingSet, it assumes that
the given GROUPING SETS node is already flatted out and
flatten_grouping_sets() does that. The details of the
transformation is described in the comment for the function.
The problmen is what does the function for nested grouping sets.
> Node *n2 = flatten_grouping_sets(lfirst(l2), false, NULL);
> result_set = lappend(result_set, n2);
This does not flattens the list as required. n2 should be
concatenated if it is a list. The attached small patch fixes it
and the problematic query returns sane (perhaps) result.
# Though I don't know the exact definition of the syntax..
=# select sum(c) from gstest2 group by grouping sets ((), grouping sets ((), grouping sets (())));sum
----- 12 12 12
(3 rows)
=# select sum(c) from gstest2 group by grouping sets ((a), grouping sets ((b), grouping sets ((c))));sum
----- 10 2 6 6 8 4
(6 rows)
regards,
