Julian Hyde commented on HIVE-15996: ------------------------------------ I was mistaken about {{GROUP_ID()}} being equivalent to {{GROUPING(x, y, z)}} (assuming the query has {{GROUP BY x, y, z}}). In fact, {{GROUP_ID()}} should return zero unless you have a query with duplicate grouping sets (which is very unusual). Furthermore, {{GROUP_ID()}} is Oracle-specific and non-standard. See CALCITE-1824 for more details. > Implement multiargument GROUPING function > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-15996 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-15996 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Affects Versions: 2.2.0 > Reporter: Carter Shanklin > Assignee: Jesus Camacho Rodriguez > Fix For: 3.0.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-15996.01.patch, HIVE-15996.02.patch, > HIVE-15996.03.patch, HIVE-15996.04.patch > > > Per the SQL standard section 6.9: > GROUPING ( CR1, ..., CRN-1, CRN ) > is equivalent to: > CAST ( ( 2 * GROUPING ( CR1, ..., CRN-1 ) + GROUPING ( CRN ) ) AS IDT ) > So for example: > select c1, c2, c3, grouping(c1, c2, c3) from e011_02 group by rollup(c1, c2, > c3); > Should be allowed and equivalent to: > select c1, c2, c3, 4*grouping(c1) + 2*grouping(c2) + grouping(c3) from > e011_02 group by rollup(c1, c2, c3); -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
