PostgreSQL version: 9.3.18
Operating system: Ubuntu 14.04
Description:
Not sure if this is a bug or feature but when I query with sub select while
sub select has invalid column the query is still valid and running. For
example:
create temp table a ( id integer, descr text);
create temp table b ( b_id integer, descr text);
# select * from a where id=(select id from b where descr='A');
id | descr
----+-------
(0 rows)
# select id from b where descr='A';
ERROR: column "id" does not exist
LINE 1: select id from b where descr='A';
