Fwd: Recursive CTE Support in Drill
+ user@drill
Hi All,
I am trying to come up with a query which returns a given number of rows
without having a real table on Storage.
I am hoping to achieve something like this:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6533524/sql-select-n-records-without-a-table
DECLARE @start INT = 1;DECLARE @end INT = 1000000;
WITH numbers AS (
SELECT @start AS number
UNION ALL
SELECT number + 1
FROM numbers
WHERE number < @end)SELECT *FROM numbersOPTION (MAXRECURSION 0);
I do not actually need to create different values and returning identical
rows would work too.I just need to bypass the "from clause" in the query.
Thanks,
Alex
