The following bug has been logged on the website:
Bug reference: 6416
Logged by: Matteo Beccati
Email address: php(at)beccati(dot)com
PostgreSQL version: 9.1.2
Operating system: Debian Sqeeze
Description:
I've just noticed that an expression index I've created was not used with a
view contiaining a UNION ALL. Switching to UNION or querying the table
directly works as expected.
A self contained test case follows:
regression=# CREATE FUNCTION ab(in text, in text, out ab text) AS $$BEGIN ab
:= $1 || $2; END;$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql IMMUTABLE; CREATE FUNCTION regression=#
CREATE table t1 (a text, b text); CREATE TABLE regression=# CREATE INDEX
t1_ab_idx on t1 (ab(a, b)); CREATE INDEX regression=# CREATE table t2 (ab
text primary key); NOTICE: CREATE TABLE / PRIMARY KEY will create implicit
index "t2_pkey" for table "t2" CREATE TABLE regression=# INSERT INTO t1
VALUES ('a', 'b'); INSERT 0 1 regression=# INSERT INTO t2 VALUES ('ab');
INSERT 0 1 regression=# VACUUM ANALYZE ; VACUUM regression=# SET
enable_seqscan = false; SET regression=# EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT * FROM
(SELECT ab(a, b) AS ab FROM t1 UNION ALL SELECT * FROM t2) t WHERE ab =
'ab'; QUERY PLAN
