multiple columns IN operation is not support

[yozen17]

Hi :
i used JSqlParser - version 1.4
for example:
// mysql
select * from a where (c1,c2) IN ((1,2),(3,4))

[wumpz]

My first guess is, that this multivalue statement is not supported. (c1, c2) in (select c1, c2 from ...) should work.

[yozen17]

I think this is standard syntax and should be supported

Do you want to contribute? PRs are welcome.

@wumpz thanks for your great project first! I also encounter this issue and I tried define a function contains to solve it but seems also not working.
The SQL I tried are
select a, b, c, d from table where contains(((1, 2, 3, 4), (5, 6, 7, 8)), (a, b, c, d))
and
select a, b, c, d from table where contains(VALUES((1, 2, 3, 4), (5, 6, 7, 8)), (a, b, c, d))
The version is 1.3

We have our own AST so there are spaces for us to perform. Do you have any advices to solve this? For example a specific syntax and so on.

I have solved this by define a tuple function, so the SQL looks like
select a, b, c, d from table where contains(tuple(tuple(1, 2, 3, 4), tuple(5, 6, 7, 8)), tuple(a, b, c, d))

I think @wumpz 's guess was correct, the problem starts at the where (:

CCJSqlParserUtil.parse("select a,b from foo where (a,b) in ((1,2),(3,4))");

Comparing it with a standard a in (1,2), I noticed the path goes through a SimpleExpression:

                          Return: SimpleExpressionList
                          Consumed token: <")" at line 1 column 36>
                        Return: InExpression

I noticed that there's a PIVOT option that supports Multiple IN items, so we'd probably have to extend at least the IN to support multiple expression list items?

        String sql = "SELECT * FROM ( select a,b from foo) PIVOT ( func(column2) for column2 in ( (1,2), (3,4)) )";
        Statement statement = CCJSqlParserUtil.parse(sql);

The grammar for IN (in oracle at least) if it helps any to understand what portion we're missing: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/conditions013.htm

Took a preliminary stab at this on the weekend:

CCJSqlParserUtil.parse("select a,b from foo where (a,b) in (1,2)");
CCJSqlParserUtil.parse("select a,b from foo where (a,b) = (1,2)");

Parses as a SimpleExpressionList (on the right).

The tricky bit is with the right part, at least:

((1,2),(3,4))

I think for that we need to have at least a (3) look ahead and look for something like:

"(" 
  "(" , SimpleExpressionList() ")" ("," "(" SimpleExpressionList() ")")*
")"

Got some conflict productions while trying that but i might be on the right track.

[AnEmortalKid]

I have a little bit more working over here: https://github.com/AnEmortalKid/JSqlParser/blob/multi-ins/src/main/jjtree/net/sf/jsqlparser/parser/JSqlParserCC.jjt#L2563

    @Test
    public void foo() throws Exception {
        Statement parsed = CCJSqlParserUtil.parse("select a,b from foo where (a,b) in ((1,2),(3,4),(5,6),(7,8))");
        System.out.println(parsed);
        Select select = (Select) parsed;
        PlainSelect plainSelect = (PlainSelect) select.getSelectBody();

        Expression whereExpression = plainSelect.getWhere();
        InExpression inExpression = (InExpression) whereExpression;


        System.out.println(inExpression.getMultiExpressionList());
    }

Can print out:

SELECT a, b FROM foo WHERE (a, b) IN null
(1, 2), (3, 4), (5, 6), (7, 8)

I might need some of @wumpz 's knowledge on javacc since some of the SelectTests now seem to be failing, even though I thought my "((" production part would make them not go through that path.
