1 DOCUMENTATION TO DO LIST
3 1. Variances from CommonSQL
5 - Ideally, this will be extremely minimal
7 - The SQL syntax state functions are macros in CLSQL.
9 2. Underdocumented CommonSQL features:
12 - SQL operators: ||, SUBSTR, MINUS, INTERSECT, UNION, NVL
14 2. CLSQL extensions to CommonSQL
16 - RESULT-TYPES, FIELD-NAMES keywords for SELECT and QUERY
18 - New types such as wall-time, boolean, and bigint
20 - SQL operators: group-by, limit, not-null, ==, is, having, the, uplike,
21 sql-view-class, coalesce, except (just from a quick scan of
24 - FDDL: list-views, view-exists-p, list-indexes, list-table-indexes,
25 index-exists-p, create-sequence, drop-sequence, list-sequences,
26 sequence-exists-p, sequence-next, sequence-last, set-sequence-position
28 - OODML: *db-auto-sync*
30 - SELECT: additional keyword arguments accepted include :LIMIT, :OFFSET,
33 - SQL-RECORDING-P: also accepts :both and :either values for the TYPE
36 - SQL-EXPRESSION: also accepts a :params keyword arg which is passed
38 4. Documenting lower level, non-CommonSQL functions (some of this is already
42 - database-query-result-set
44 5. Notes on any peculiarities of each of the backends (e.g., unsupported
45 features, notable extensions etc.).
49 drop-index: requires a table to be specified with the :from parameter

51 queries: nested subqueries are not supported
52 syntax: doesn't support the sql concatenation operator (||).
53 doesn't support INTERSECT/EXCEPT set operations.
