Description: =
Row datatypes are currently not hashable, which makes it slower to use them
in a UNIQUEd query and impossible to use them in a recursive query (unless
using UNION ALL):
divide=3D# create type the_row as (mfg text, id text);
CREATE TYPE
divide=3D# with recursive rec(w, i) as ( =
=
=
select '(pow,xyzzy)'::the_row, 3
union
select w, i-1 from rec where i > 0
) select * from rec; =
ERROR: could not implement recursive UNION
DETAIL: All column datatypes must be hashable.
